This case is so stupid to me. Why can’t any business refuse any customer for any reason?

If it were a vegan bakery and I asked for a milk chocolate cake with eggs, they’d have be arrested.

> Why can’t any business refuse any customer for any reason? <

I’m a hard-core conservative, as my many previous posts will attest. But I’m really torn on this one. For this country to survive, the motto “E Pluribus Unum” must have real meaning. Should a business - open to the public - be allowed to put a “No gays served” sign out front? How about “No blacks served”?

I think not. Because such signs would divide us, not unite us.

On the other hand, should a person be forced to go against his religious beliefs? Should an observant Jew, for example, be forced to work on the Sabbath?

This is all too tough a call for me. if I were on the Supreme Court, I’d skip this case and go fishing instead.
