[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 1572157, member: 18225"] Where to start... By your measure, Muslims (running businesses) could refuse service to women, with the disclaimer that they felt their 'religious liberties' were being infringed upon. Jews could refuse service to gentiles. Buddhists could refuse service to people that were 'unkind'. Rastafarians could refuse service to non-pot smokers. Atheists could refuse service to...[B]ANYONE[/B]. There is a difference between the 1st Amendment and straight-up discrimination. Businesses shouldn't have extra-special rights vs. citizens. This law in Indiana almost infers extra-special rights above and beyond the guarantees of our CONSTITUTION. As well, lots of these ideas are already covered in existing Federal and State law. [B]So tell me, what is broken that this law is fixing?[/B] [/QUOTE]
