Yeah but mitch mcconnell and the republicans said that when a business pays a bribe to a politician, its just talking. When the business says you cant come in, its just talking. You hate the first amendment now? Jeez.

America, love it or leave it, remember?

You dont get to get elected to office and change it. You just have to accept it or leave, like you guys always say.

Mitch McConnell looks like a Starwars creature. I'm just saying.

I think there is some clause that says that you ant discriminate for X things, and that latter one falls under that?

Or does the whole restaurant fall under it, because of the implication?
If Walmart turns away someone who is black (non-vaccinated) is that discrimination?

Quote:
Under federal anti-discrimination laws, businesses can refuse service to any person for any reason, unless the business is discriminating against a protected class.

At the national level, protected classes include:

Race or color
National origin or citizenship status
Religion or creed
Sex
Age
Disability, pregnancy, or genetic information
Veteran status

Some states, like California, have more protected classes than the federal baseline. In addition to the above factors, California adds:

Marital status
Sexual orientation or gender identity
Medical condition, or AIDS/HIV status
Military or veteran status
Political affiliations or activities
Status as a victim of domestic violence, assault, or stalking

Contact your state attorney general or consult a lawyer for details on how your state handles its particular antidiscrimination law.
Interesting. Does political affiliation fall under creed on the federal level or can you say 'no democrats!' at the front of your store?

Huh.. notice in fascist california, you can't discriminate against someone based on their political affiliation.

Here's the problem

How do you legislate comorbidities

Examples:

Black Non Vaccinated

Gay Non Vaccinated

Disabled Non Vaccinated

It's a slippery slope when you start discrimating. It doesn't matter how valiant and Just you think your reasoning is. With this vaccine status one, I'm sure there are people that think it's creating a safer atmosphere. You also can't disregard the fact that you're segregating the vaxed from the unvaxed. Look throughout history for examples of segregating people and find any that end well.

Omg so true lol. All of these career politicians are gross af to look at.

Chuck Schumer legit looks like he creeped out of the D&D Monster Manual, and Nancy Pelosi looks like Mother Brain from Captain N.

I think politics are radioactive in some way and slowly mutate the people who are in constant close contact with them over time.

Biden says he is going to fix the ever increasing wealth gap

He then shuts down small businesses

Dumps 120 billion per month into wall street

Creates trillions of dollars out of thin air and sends a small portion of it as stimulus checks

People have a bunch of free money to buy up whatever and don't need to work

Supply drops and companies start pricing in the trillions of stimulus into their product

Prices go up

Free money stimulus checks eventually stop

People now have no free money and prices are higher than before

Wealth Gap increases

I like Evia's posts. They're not dramatic and they are on topic. Even if he doesn't agree with me it's good to see some quality posts.
