"...especially when that discrimination negatively impacts someones livelihood and their ability to put a roof over their head."

"There are 10's of 1000's of businesses in this country. How many examples of discrimination have you personally witnessed?"

Several. But that is not the point. The point is that any law which promotes, protects, or directly or indirectly encourages discrimination on the basis of someones private life is wrong. That is NOT the function of the government.

By several do you mean 1 or 2? You've personally witnessed only 1 or 2 cases of discrimination by a business?

Bueller? Bueller?

Lets say you're telling the truth and you have in fact personally witnessed 2 cases of discrimination. Considering there are approximately 14,000,000 businesses in the U.S., lets do some math. 2 divided by 14,000,000 equals 0.0000001. Multiple that by 100 and we get 0.00001%.

Hmm...This is interesting. You believe that a law should be created to protect against the occurrence of something that has a likelihood of only 0.00001 percent? I would say that is a bit irrational? Wouldn't you agree? I think the likelihood of a crash of a commercial airline is better. Should we also outlaw air travel too?
