“WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE”

It died with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and subsequent court rulings.”

Actually that was dead decades prior to the Civil Rights Act in laws that mandated there was no right to serve anyone one wants to serve.

What bothers me as a non-White American is the fact that homosexuals are equating their struggles for acceptance on par with those suffered by ethnic minorities. They’re not an ethnic minority. Theirs is not a biological condition. Homosexuality is a lifestyle choice and that should end the discussion right there. I think the militant gays have infuriated a good many people who otherwise have been tolerant of their lifestyle, and in time may have accepted their right to marry. Not anymore. This in your face, FU attitude that gay militants have adapted is backfiring big time. They may have the courts, the politicans, and the entertainment community on their side, but everyday Americans are fed up. This cuts across all party lines. There are far more Democrats who don’t support gay marriage than we’re being led to believe, but out of party loyalty and fear they say nothing. The RINOS are wrong when they say social issues should be dropped. This is where the left is carrying on their fight for the control of this country. They can’t win the debate on economic and foreign policy issues so this is their battlefield and so far in this war the GOP is already negotiating a surrender.

“That is the fascism that the Democrat’s are peddling since the reign of Obama.”

It goes back further than that, obama opened the gates. The barbarians are running amok in our country and the democrats invited them in and the gop-e are surrendering to them.

Since the passage of the Civil Rights Act in the mid-60s, motel owners have been forced to rent rooms to people they disapprove of, including interacial couples.

Yes, in some states prior to that the opposite applied. But I am talking about the law as it is today throughout the nation.

I am talking about state abuse.

The state mandated racial discrimination well prior to Civil Rights laws of the 60’s so in looking at the genesis of this abuse it does not emanate from the 60’s laws but the prior laws.

It is always Democrats forcing their views on others by power of the state.

At my employer, they put up an employee of the month bio. The man had been married ten years with four kids before deciding he was homosexual, coming out to coworkers and his spouse. His bio stated “his children supported his decision”, but an at most ten year old does not understand what the Dad says or does until they are divorced and living separately.
The gay man was gushing about how he slowly came out to not just his boss but coworkers and was now active in an employee resource group, AKA networking for LBGTA.

This is not what I would consider a model employee or model behavior. All I could think of was, I feel sorry for his wife and children, and the fact that he could make four of them was proof his sexuality conversion was a choice.

>>The list of things society forces people to do should probably be pretty short. Cake baking doesn’t seem like a candidate.

Great line.

Good answer by YouGoTexasGirl.

I’d also add that in most places the courts are stacked against them. Our judicial system is corrupt. When a conservative sues, he just feeds more money into the pockets of liberal lawyers.

Bingo. You can’t choose your skin color (or gender). You can choose your behavior and that is a huge difference.

I still think that business (at least non-essential businesses like caterers) ought to be able to discriminate on any basis they choose. Even if they don’t like your skin color. Harsh? Yes. Would I support them if they discriminated on the basis of skin color? No. But I would support their right to do so. (And would likely start a business to take advantage of all the money they were leaving on the table.)
