As we all know, counting on "free market" and that mumbo-jumbo "natural law" means that you're at the mercy of someone's whims if they want to offer you services or goods that others can enjoy. To heck with that - I have the right to be served like anyone else! Do I have the assurance that I can get a hotel room, a table at a restaurant like anyone else?
Double-check the law on that, but if my memory is correct: no, you don't. Business owners are entitled to refuse service to a would-be client.
That depends, if you're white you have to pay for it. if you're a minority, you have whites pay for it and then gib dat to the minority because of the white oppression suffered upon them.
There is some truth to that. But, to be fair, this is only possible because of the white liberal "elite" and white liberals in general. These people have a vested interest in keeping the minorities poor and dependent on government handouts.
On the other hand, Republicans have a vested interest in seeing the minorities succeed and enjoy American prosperity to its full extent.
I guess it just doesn’t matter for some people that no matter how much you try help them...They just don’t care give a dam....they’re more into identity politics... it just shows sad state of affairs we’re living in these times...
gravitate to Biden? lmao he put hundreds of thousands of black people in jail. Remember three strikes you're out? Sentences for life in prison for marijuana. Sure they'll flock to him. Old white guy, privileged member of the Senate since he was 30. They have a lot in common.
Yes. So, basically no one is "entitled to be served like everyone else", since business owners can refuse service for a wide array of reasons.
Well, if the store doesn't have what I want, they don't have to sell it to me. Or if I'm causing a disturbance or threatening other customers or staff members, they can tell me to get lost.
Now if they don't want to sell it to me because of my race, and they'll sell that to someone else who is of a different ethnic background, that's a no-no.
Example: A kosher deli won't sell a smoked ham. But they'll sell anything they offer to people of any background, and gladly will.

Of course, because they want the money. But should they refuse to sell something, I believe they would have the legal right to do so. (not saying this is a good thing or bad one here, just stating the fact).
Black unemployment is at an all time low, but much of the Black Community don't want to give up the victimhood mentalilty, and be held accountable for their problems. Which are huge, by the way.
Not attributable to any policy of Trump.Accountable. Unreal.

Well, if you refuse to sell something, it has to be on a nondiscriminatory basis and not violate the Civil Rights Act.
Heart of Atlanta Motel vs. United States, and Katzenbach vs. McClung are the US Supreme Court cases that affirm this - no discrimination in public accommodations.
