RE: Question on the importance of freedom of religion in the USA.

in #religion7 years ago

As a business owner, I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. As a supporter of the LGBT community, I recommend people take their business elsewhere. Why would I use government force to coerce someone into serving me? What does that accomplish? Certainly not making the person any less of a bigot. But it does expand the scope of government "authority", which should scare the crap out of people. Seems less detrimental to just take my business to the baker or florist or whatever who isn't gonna treat me like shit. And slippery slopes, folks: It's only a matter of time before some neo-Nazi group demands service at a gay bar under the same "protections".

Agreed. The government is so far beyond their Constitutional limits, it should Terrify us all!

Thomas Jefferson said:

A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.

Our single greatest risk we face today, is big government!

Every business has the right to refuse service; and every consumer has the right to find a seller that better matches their needs. Businesses that offend, can be forced out of business; and consumers will receive better service.
