I would have no problems with protests or boycotts against this bigotry but I'm not sure the force of law should be brought against someone for this type of thing. You weren't alive in the days when blacks couldn't get in their car and take a road trip to visit granny without having to deal with the fact that there might be no place along the road where they could stop for food or stay overnight or even pee. If you had, you might feel differently. I'm every bit as libertarian as you, but there have to be limits to oppression under the umbrella of free association. I recognize that this kind of government interference can take on a life of its own, go too far, and get into judgments that the government is not very well equipped to deal with. Perhaps the cure is as bad as the disease. But you cannot deny that allowing wholesale exclusion is also a rights issue for those being excluded, not just a social issue. Karen
