This whole flap seems to be over segregation. So maybe someone will tell me what is wrong with a private business deciding who can enter the business? Do conservatives only like freedom of association when it politically convenient?

There's more to it than that. We're talking about segregated schools, poll taxes, and lyching.

You do have a point though. A person ought to able to serve who they want to serve. But that's not the platform Thurmond ran on. He thought segregation was just marvelous.
