Using a paddleball is also a learned behavior. So what?So if I'm a landlord and I don't want tenants playing paddleball in their apartments, it goes into the lease and if they violate it they're out on their butts.
They can come rent from you and you can play paddleball with them.

You're absolutely right. Businessmen should exercise their right to do business and employ anyone they want as well. Thanks.

Okay, Kevie, make a lease prohibiting fags from renting your apartment, then tell me how Americans are all entitled to the same rights.

The individual's right to freely exercise his or her liberty is not dependent upon whether the majority believes such exercise to be moral, dishonorable, or wrong. Simply because something is beyond the pale of "majoritarian morality" does not place it beyond the scope of constitutional protection. To allow the moral indignation of a majority (or, even worse, a loud and/or radical minority) to justify criminalizing private consensual conduct would be a strike against freedoms paid for and preserved by our forefathers.

No, you are wrong. You cannot discriminate based
on religion, for one thing, in renting out property.

We have said that Congress may regulate not only 'Commerce
among the several states,'
but also anything that has a 'substantial effect' on such commerce. This test, if taken to its logical extreme, would give Congress a 'police power' over all aspects of American life. Under our jurisprudence, if Congress passed an omnibus 'substantially affects interstate commerce' statute, purporting to regulate every aspect of human existence, the Act apparently would be constitutional. </>
Found this on your profile page. Justice Thomas went on to state that under the substantially affects interstate commerce test adopted by the Court, "[c]ongress can regulate whole categories of activities that are not themselves either 'interstate or commerce.'"

It's to the point that I would support anyone discriminating on any basis, any time, any where for any thing.
I am so sick of protected, minority classes burdening the majority.
Just, let everyone discriminate at will and keep government out of the picture, if this is the best they can do.
IMO, the Free market will pick up the slack.

Well, you could look at it that way.
I was thinking more along the lines of not forcing "evil" down peoples throats for the sake of "diversity".
I don't want to deal with tyranical minorities. It would eb so much easier to simply seperate my/our selves from them if we don't see eye to eye. WITHOUT SCOTUS handing down edicts to the contrary.

No argument here. Although, discriminate we must.

Somewhere along the line contemporary society got this notion that we are more compassionate, more loving than our narrow forefathers. After all, they allowed slavery, killed animals, and smoked cigarettes They smoked unfiltered cigarettes no less. ;-)

we've got to win one more election before we're positioned to activate the spine we installed three years ago. I hope and pray that you're right.

Men in robes, if you know what I mean.
But, hey, the Georgia capitol dome is gold.
How gay is that? The very name Georgia
reeks of girly-man. It's everywhere, I
tell you.

Whatever consenting corn bores chose to do in their love life is no concern of an employer or a landlord. Like spread disease, molest kids, jack up health costs, hate straights, etc?
