I'm not arguing for affirmative action. I'm arguing for access to public accommodations. How would you like to go to a 7-11 and not be allowed in to buy milk for your kids. If an apartment is for rent or a house is for sale and the applicant is otherwise qualified, religion or race or gender or whatever shouldn't deny that individual access. No, I don't think freedom of association allows a seller to say he won't sell to someone on that basis. The civil rights of the purchaser are of greater importance.
