‘If the jews were members of the LGBT, then CNN and MSNBC would have 24/7 coverage of this.’
My thoughts exactly...

They may not be able to use discrimination to sue, but the inconvenience, and cost of any loss or damage to the items they brought with them. The fact that they did not have an opportunity to relocate at such a short notice.
if the hotel has signs saying no Jews allowed, it never would have happened. They need to post these signs....and see what that does for their business.

This is the first I’ve heard of this story, but if it had been a Christian owner expelling gays or Muslims from the premises, it would be front-page news.

But only if the owner was a Christian.

Government forced blacks to sit at the back of the bus. If businesses had been left to make their own decisions, race discrimination would have ended much sooner. Free commerce tears down barriers. In the south I knew in the 50s and 60s discriminatory laws were strongly supported by the general population. White businesses observed those laws because they would have lost white customers if they didn't, even where no such laws existed, there were signs posted in restaurants and other businesses telling black people to go to the rear for service, black and white water fountains. Public swimming pools where no blacks were allowed. I lived there and witnessed these things.

Yes, I witnessed them, too, but things were already starting to change when government stepped in. Government had every right and duty to enforce equality before the law in public facilities and in voting, but no right to force private businesses to do anything. If we do not have freedom of association, then we have tyranny.
Check out what Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams have to say on the subject of race discrimination.

I agree. But that cannot happen today because laws and court decisions have disallowed letting the market decide and now you will be punished both criminally and civilly for posting such a sign. Either way you will find yourself out of business but today it will cost you a whole lot more.

Observant Jews would be no more likely to befriend a pig than Muslims.Nonsense, they just don't eat them.

Did you even read the story?
It was a pre-arranged rental.

I believe the 14th Amendment has been used to supersede the freedom of association clause.

This isn't government, it's a civil action. Are you suggesting that the Jews who reserved their rooms and then were expelled have no recourse in the courts? Though I question your broad statement about free market economists, I would suggest this is precisely the cost those economists might be talking about in the case of a contractural breach.
Not to suggest that if he threw out blacks, I'd oppose prosecution, but that's not the case. This is a civil dispute, apparently nothing about throwing Jews out of the hotel violates civil rights legislation.
BTW, if this were a private business, they could bar Jews and anyone else. When you open your doors to the general public, you've lost that defence of privacy.

The article indicates employees assisted in set up for the event, so it wasn’t a complete surprise.

From "Ask the Rabbi:"
http://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/976496/jewish/Can-a-Jew-raise-swine.htm
Additionally, we find that the Torah has a particular aversion for swine. [ . . . ]
To understand the unique abhorrence of the swine is to understand why our nemesis Esau, the Edomites, is compared to a swine, the verse in Psalms6 referring to him as "the wild boar of the forest."
[ . . .] What really irks the Torah is not so much the fact that the swine isn't kosher, after all, there are many non-kosher animals; it is the fact that it symbolizes deception and hypocrisy that earned it its unique infamy.
In light of the above, while swine might make for wonderful and intelligent pets, they are just not a Jewish kind of pet.
And of course, as on so many topics of this sort, observant Jews are varying degrees of orthodoxy may vary in their approach (just as observant Jews may have different opinions regarding the use of kosher soap.). I still maintain that it is exceptionally unlikely for a Jew to befriend a pig, and he would be most displeased to have one in his pool.

Since they were in the pool, it is likely many of them already had checked into rooms at the hotel, therefore there is also a breach of contract.
Imagine the uproar if a charity event had been held for black orphans of Vets KIA instead of Jewish orphans of Vets KIA.
I guess Santa Monica just hates orphans or else they promote hate crimes based upon religion and parentage. Why hasn’t the state and the city jerked their business license to operate as a hotel? They are violating city permitting regulations.
