And Hawk, the argument doesn't hold up. The USA has laws regarding discrimination, both in the public and the business sectors.
You want to open a business in this country and call it your own? OK. You still have to abide by laws - local, state, and federal. You want to profit off of our free market system? Cool. But you have to play by the rules to cash in.
You can not discriminate based on sexual orientation.
Basic human rights 101.

I know the law. My point is it’s worth considering whether there should be these kinds of laws. It’s not a top priority or even a philosophy I subscribe to. It’s a little frustrating because Merit (sorry dude) is rambling all over the place and not doing much to advocate for the merits of a much more laissez faire style of governance. Since I’m not a proponent of private property I’m not especially inspired to try to resell it for him. Starting from a position of homophobia didn’t help.
