It's more like "people like these people were unfairly discriminated against for things beyond their control, like their race or sexuality, so let's make that illegal so these people can be treated the same as straight white people". Nick_Saban posted... So it's okay to discriminate against a protected class as long as you're doing it for the right reason? Yep, now you get it! Nick_Saban posted... Basically I could open a restaurant and deny service to Ellen Degeneres as long as I say it's because she's white? Oh, guess you don't get it after all. No, you can't deny service to Ellen Degeneres because she's white, because race is a protected class. However, if she were to come into your restaurant and start shouting, "Death to all people who have dogs!", then you are well within your right to refuse service to her and ask her to leave. Her race or gender does not factor into your decision to refuse service. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
