Zone1 So Everybody but Christians Have Rights?

[Arlette]

Actually it's legal for any business owner to deny service to anybody at any time for anything. Should it be legal? Yeah, if it's your business. Other people may not like it or agree with it but my point still stands. Even for your third question.

No, Road Runner you cannot deny people service for a variety of reasons.


Can a public business deny service to a customer?

"... there are important limitations. In the United States, businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone, but they cannot do so based on discrimination against protected classes. Federal laws, such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, and other protected characteristics2.
Businesses can refuse service for legitimate reasons, such as dress code violations, disruptive behavior, or health and safety concerns, as long as these reasons are applied consistently and do not discriminate against protected classes. For example, a restaurant can refuse service to a customer who is causing a disturbance, but it cannot refuse service based on the customer's race or religion2."

You seem to be contradicting yourself. First you say businesses can't "deny people service for a variety of reasons." Then you quote something pointing out that they can refuse service for any reason they like, as long as it's not on the current protected classes list.
