What about blacks? Can you refuse services because you just don’t like them? You said anyone for any reason after all

Yes a business owner should be able to refuse service in all but life and death situations. I personally wouldn't refuse service to blacks but that's because I'm a true capitalist. On the other hand, I would refuse service to illegal aliens.

Ok. I’ll bite. Are we supposed to be free people or not? So yes, that includes choosing not to serve anyone for any reason.

Yes, certainly you should be able to refuse service for any reason at all. Any respectable blacks, whites, etc., however, would be welcome in my business.

Yes. If you own the business you should be able to refuse service for ANY reason. Your customer base will decide your success or failure.

Yes. It would be stupid, but, yes. Other businesses could promote their "openess" to all customers. White customers who disagree with that businesses policy, could change to another business, or start their own. The "free" market will take care of this. The government should not be interfering.

I know it sounds harsh; but, because the govt. has gotten so involved in all of this personal stuff, we now have photographers being forced to take a customer with whom they have moral objections. There are other photogs who will take this business. This is about forcing people to "associate".
