If a bakery can be held accountable for denying a gay couple a cake where the hell does Walmart and Dicks get off.

Not sure about Walmart, but I know where Dicks get off HA! Am I right? Sex joke.

As a business what gives them the right to supersede any law? Starts with this then it’s regulations, safety codes, and other laws.

I'm afraid this will not go anywhere, as he is not in a "protected" class. He is "just a normal SUBJECT", so he gets no rights!

Sorry, but a private business should be able to deny service to anyone for any reason. That includes making them a cake or selling them a rifle or asking them to leave the premises for saying things they don't like.

Businesses didn't used to serve blacks either, as a matter of policy, in the not too distant past. Try that now.

^^^This^^^

A government that can force a business to sell or serve everyone is out of control.

I agree but the only reason I like seeing this come about is due to the cake guy that lost his business. Its either one way or the other. Can't have both.

One other thought the cake guy said no based on religion, protected by constitution.

Dick's is discriminating based on age. I believe that is two different issues.

I think Dicks is in some trouble.

Don't be surprised when the courts rule that's it's not one way or the other. After all, this is gun related.

I know it’s not quite the same thing but what about age restrictions on spray paint and other random chemicals and things I’ve bought where they asked for my birthdates? Is that the gov or stores?

I agree that private businesses should be able to decide who they sell to or not. I also agree that a state or federal government does not have the right to make a business cater to a particular individual.

Now the big question - if some states change the purchasing age of a rifle to 21 can they be sued for age discrimination under the new law? It's been 21 for handguns for a long time. Has anyone sued for that?
