but if someone wants to discriminate against people in a way that doesn't harm them, they should have the right to do so. No one's obligated to do business with anyone. If someone wants to only let muslims into their store, they should be able to. It's their property, their business, their rules.

i disagree to that extent but i get where you're coming from, and i definitely think businesses have a right to deny service to individuals. i just don't think it's reasonable to do it en-masse, but i guess if you do that you're also deliberately narrowing your customer base which is a pretty poor business decision

it is a very poor business choice which would make the owner think twice before showing how much of an starfish they are
they then get shut down for lack of business and the world goes on.

You're putting too much trust in people to circulate information on a business' practices. Especially if it's something like a "mom & pop shop"

ah stuff this again


who the forget cares who isnt some tumblr regular? I live in Indiana and when Pence brought SEA 101 (i think it was that bill) to our state legislature it got forgeted over because of public outcry, Apple shut down all their stores in Indiana, as well as multiple bussinesses threatened to leave our state, which large companies wouldn't really forget up the government, just me and the general population of Indiana. It was loving handicapped. Besides, if a bakery or small store refuses to serve a category of people for any reason, they are the ones losing money and in the long run, maybe their bussiness entirely.

Seriously, forget the companies that threatened to leave. Granted i'd loving love it if small bussinesses prospered even more and more, that'd possibly improve my state's economy.

That awkward moment when LGBT politics and states rights are on the same side of the debate.

Rednecks aren't gonna know what to think.

[Toxicology]

New York has always been full of big babies. Also hasn't state and federal law already had too much fun telling small business what they can and cannot do? They need to forget off already. Some regulations are necessary but honestly lawmakers are a run-away freight train of stupid.

Put all the Gays/Lesbians/Trans/Bi in Concentration camps. That'll show them.

Mississippi is the most Jesus-like state. They take all of the stufftiest things (education, obesity rate, poverty, etc) so that everyone else doesn't have to.

I feel as if banning travel to mississippi for any reason is deserving of a nobel prize

literally the worst state in the union
