A legislature overstepped its authority by not taking away enough rights?

No, bar and restaurant owners objected to certain establishments being exempted.

I don't blame them. Laws should be applied equally. Even bad laws.

I can see the bars and restaurants complaining about equality, but shouldn’t they be classified as public businesses as oppposed to private ones, therefore having different standards?

Private clubs already have different laws applying to them than do establishments open to the general public.

Sounds like the Russian that'll burn down his neighbor's house.

I agree, only way to get them overturned. These "pivate clubs" are in fact open to the public and compete for customers just like any other bar.
