Why was it wrong? **** that bitch. She wasn't refused service because of her race, religion, or gender. She was refused service for being a ****faced **** weasel.

It's wrong for the same reason they could refuse you service for having a Hitler avatar. She didn't smell (well, I don't think so anyway), she was properly dressed. I assume she wasn't belligerent initially. I'm no fan of hers at all, but I guess I'm wearing my ACLU hat here.

It's the same argument as the cake. It's their restaurant. They can refuse any service. It being Sarah Sanders is also reason enough.

Would a restaurant be justified in refusing to serve Democrats?

Yes. And if someone like Sarah Sanders is going to portray herself the way she does, I'm not the least surprised when someone calls her out on it. Which is undoubtedly what the restaurant was doing by refusing service.

Fair enough. Personally I find slinging shit in a culture war to be a very bad idea.

And there you go. You just gave a bakery permission to refuse a gay couple service. Yes, it's exactly the same thing.

I'm just more pro on if someone acts like a ****ty person, they deserve it when it gets thrown back. Not saying iit's right. But she had it coming.

I really don't think it's comparable to that at all. Refusing service to entire groups of people, especially when it is a oppressed minority, contributes to that oppression. Refusing service to some person you think is a twat oppresses nobody. If you ran a business would you want to be forced by law to serve Ted Bundy?
