History has not repeated anything dear boy. You people can still get food anywhere, right? You drink from any water fountain, right? Your sexual perversion plight is zero compared to the black racial situation.
First you argue that business owners are allowed to pick and choose their customers. Then you contradict yourself by saying that gays can get food anywhere.
“She told them the rules are on the door and it says ‘Welcome to Big Earl’s where men act like men, women act like ladies, no saggy pants and we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.'”
“And so I laughed and I asked what do you mean?” says Dewberry. “And that’s when she said to us… ‘to put it plainly, we don’t serve **** here.'”
How is being gay a perversion? Hetrosexuals practice oral and anal sex too.
Your perversion argument mirrors the blacks are inferior argument.
Why do you not just go to a store that will leave you with happy memories? Are you really that masochistic? Try striving for positive energy.
Using your "logic" - NO minorities should have ever challenged being refused service - they should LIVE - EAT - SHOP - DRINK WATER - RIDE BUSES - ONLY where there will be "HAPPY MEMORIES" and not confrontation???
How can you even "type" that with a straight face???
Have you NO grasp of historical events with regards to discrimination and restrictions and how they were changed???
Read a book. Watch a documentary. Educate yourself with regards to social change.
George Wallace didn't have to marry a black woman - but he had to let them in the schoolhouse door.
She shut the business down over a dress when she could have easily gone elsewhere.
This doesn't make them bullies. It just means that customers were disgusted with her business practices and refused to shop there. I'm sure if she had customers lining up to buy dresses she'd still be in business.

She did nothing of the sort, if customers want express their opinion by not shopping there or by protesting that is their right. When one expresses their opinion publically one must never forget that others can do the same in return.

Don't be surprised with the backlash in all forms tangible, intangible, real and imaginary incurred by supporters, sympathizers, and defenders of the store.
Just walk in and find out or become a mind reader. I shall not answer this question again for the infinitieth time.
so you think it is ok for the public to have to walk into several store to get service because the store owner doesn't like the look of ya. this is exactly why we have discrimination laws.

She doesn't HAVE to go elsewhere - the shop HAS to allow her to SHOP there.
Every reply you post tries to use a different angle to justify discrimination - religion - private business "rights" - happy memories - bullying............
Not buying any of that - you are discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation - and that is the bottom line.
