Are you saying it's okay to discriminate against people even if they're in protected classes as long as the reason for the discrimination isn't related to their protected status? No, that's exactly how it works. Sarah Sanders can be asked to leave a business because of her political ideology. Sarah Sanders can't be asked to leave a business because she's a woman. That's literally what "protected status" means and sounds insane to no one. Nick_Saban posted... Because laws aren't inherently fair. Whether you think the law is fair is irrelevant. Everyone else has to obey this law, explain how giving him a special exemption would be fair, please. Also keep in mind he agreed to obey the law when he opened his business, so you're unfairly asking for special treatment and the ability to ignore the fact that he knew ahead of time he would be expected to serve his customers equally. Nick_Saban posted... And stop with this "other situations are irrelevant". Context matters, you don't want to admit it because you're in a spot where it's either you have to exclude context or admit you're wrong. Yes, context matters. The specifics of another unrelated event have literally nothing to do with the context of this specific case being discussed. I will not respond to this line of discussion again. If you can't frame your argument within the context of this case then you have no argument. --- "a minority is someone who you can tell off the bat they are black/hispanic/colored.
