Either business owners have the right to refuse service for any reason or they don't.

Activist judges are breaking their oath and the law. They are supposed to be completely neutral in their decisions. They need to be impeached.
It's different because it happened in a different state which has different laws regarding public accommodations. The judge in both cases ruled based on the laws of the state in which the case was based.

Politics is downstream from culture.
Modern republicans are not those republicans.

Just as the democrats of today are not those democrats.

You know that.

No I don't. Explain it to me.

Same tactics used against Republicans in the 1950's and into the 1970, is being used today against them.

Re-read your post.

You suggested people on the right aren’t violent.


I know, I know. Trump supporters get confused easily.

Exactly. It's getting easy and clear to see that we're headed toward a Communist government.

The contradictory rulings from the bench and non-equal treatment of people under the law:

Cake/Hat

Can enact DACA/ Can't rescind it (Same office)

Special council for no reason, no crime/ People who conspired to make up the crime get off scot free.

Gen Flynn ruined/McCabe team "confident" charges will go nowhere.

On and on it goes.

This government is totally illegitimate and criminal. Revolution should've happened many moons ago.

I assume you will be happy to leave if you are wearing a hope and change tee shirt and are asked to leave a restaurant because the staff won't serve democrats?

Ahh, BUT, not liking hopey changey makes one a racist. Little caveat there.
