Actually, he was absolutely correct. I agree with him wholeheartedly.
If his religion is Christianity, discrimination against blacks is well within his religious rights and can easily be justified by the texts In his holy books and texts.
Which is why I've never understood the phenomenon known as "Black Christians."
Good brainwashing I guess. Didn't get me though (thank goodness).
In South Carolina, a BBQ restaurant owner claimed that he was within his rights to refuse service to blacks based on his religious beliefs. In the case brought before the Supreme Court, Maurice Bessinger stated that his religion required him to keep black people from eating in his restaurant, although he was perfectly OK with taking their money, so long as they ordered their food to-go.
and just look where you got your information? Anyone can say anything, anyone can hire an attorney but it takes more than that to prove this really happened. When the platiff wins the law suite, then i will believe it Oh wait: this happened a few years ago, am I not right, like maybe like close to 50 years ago? Nice try, but let's stick with what is or isn't happening today.

Case law is case law regardless. The whole justice system is premised upon precedent setting case law, some of which originated when there were only 13 states of the union.
Ever ask yourself where the right of Habeas-corpus originated:
These are just a few of the older important case law precedents that have, and continue to be used to this day in courtrooms all over the nation.
The age of the law or the precedent setting case has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with it's current standing if cited as example of case law relevance and jurists agree.
IMO, a business owner, ANY business owner, has the absolute right to determine who he or she will or will not do business with.
The ABSOLUTE RIGHT!
On the other hand, a consumer, ANY consumer, has the ABSOLUTE RIGHT to decide and determine where he or she will or will NOT spend his or her money.
The ABSOLUTE RIGHT!
Yes, it should be just that simple.
Tell you what, how about we say he has that right if he operates the business as himself, not a LLC, corporation, etc. If you want THOSE protections....you have to also take the other side-that you wont discriminate. Then I might argue that you have that right.
Because right now its "this business entity" vs "I"
Haha, probably so. I am still curious where in the bible it says that though.
I am curious how the bible can be used for a defense too but also curious why something that happened in 1968 was posted in the year 2015 as if it was recent.

I think this person should be required to point where in their religion that says it is okay to deny a customer from their restaurant because they are black.
I am very curious where he read this in his religion.

while urbanlife78 and i agree this time, it is a moot point as ultor noted, the case was heard in 1968. way to dredge up the past OP.
