The fourth amendment refuses government access to a person's home, property or business without a properly signed warrant. 272

Wrong, in several ways.

So you chose to obfuscate off on a tangent rather than acknowledge that the purpose of the fourth amendment is to protect citizens from unwarranted access by government onto their property. Please elaborate on your reasoning so that I can compile this discussion into a article.

Just so that we don't lose sight of the main issue at hand, I'll repost it...

Roscoe: If the Boy Scouts owned an apartment building and rented out units to the general public, they would be required to make the apartments available to applicants without regard to their races. 242

Zon: The fourth amendment refuses government access to a person's home, property or business without a properly signed warrant. Yet the government forces business owners to give access to total strangers via discrimination laws. In effect the government, taxpayers' employees, can't be trusted, yet the same government that can't be trusted proclaims that business owner must trust total strangers. 272

Roscoe, how do you explain the glaring contradiction?

Pretty ignorant assertion. The Fourth Amendment was a clarification of the extent of the powers delegated to the federal government.
