All those liberal boycotts of Arizona brought the State to it’s knees, didn’t they?
Indiana should be quaking in fear.
Finally, one state is willing to stand up to its principles just a Chicka-a-Fill did
I thought I’d seen everything when a gay guy posted a photo of Auschwitz victims on Facebook and underneath it wrote: Indiana. Morbid, drama queens with persecution complexes.
“laws that would allow for business to discriminate against consumers based on certain traits like carrying a gun”
Yelp is another thing I never use. If you have to name yourself after the noise a dog makes when it is in pain . . .
Not just dress codes. Food preferences.
I prefer fried potatoes.
You prefer mashed potatoes.
Can I refuse to serve mashed potatoes to you? Can I discriminate against you (you?) based on your food preferences?
A well written expose of the issue.
As a businessman I reserve the absolute right to refuse service to any noob I want.
If you stink of dope or BO, are obnoxious or frighten other customers expect to be told to leave. I have thrown hostile teens out only to have them return with their parents who demanded their child apologize to me.
I have a remarkably desirable venue for children and families but do not tolerate rambunctious behavior.
“Can I refuse to serve mashed potatoes to you? “
Yes by not offering them on the menu.
Next question.
That's only half the view. The other half, in this increasingly balkanized nation, is the phenomenon of the Buycott where like-minded people support their friends. What a concept!
Maybe Stoppleman should be more concerned about a soon to be made documentary about how Yelp exploits businesses. Or maybe this bill is a good way to deflect attention.

Indiana is better off without Yelp, which is nothing more than a mafia-like extortion racket. Want good reviews, or bad reviews to go away? You better pay up. That’s Yelp.
Why can't the left see this? Heck, why can't generic Americans see this?Rhetorical question...........but this seems so obvious.
The next thing you know the gay porn industry won’t want to film in Indiana....
"Kaylie Milliken is attempting to investigate Yelp's “$3.6 billion racket against small business owners" in her documentary Billion Dollar Bully. If this allegation comes as a shock, then know that Yelp has been accused of manipulating business review pages and giving preferential treatment to restaurants that pay for advertising."
Apple should stop selling iPhones there as well ...
Well, yeah, maybe, but if they did this regardless of sexual orientation, it should be no problem.
So if a NAZI group wanted YELP to sponsor its meeting YELP would agree to that then!
That’s the trouble here when you start going down that route ... :-) ...
If it’s a religious preference, apparently so ... :-) ...
Maybe they just “religiously” adhere to certain foods! This whole thing is a “can of worms” for our society!
