What say you? Thoughts?

I’d give a crackhead $40 to burn the place down.

Yep christians don't like it when goes back the other way. Everyone now day being persecuted by someone.
Oh the irony of it all..
Merry Christmas.

That might be a bit harsh. lol. How about a good old school sit in. A predominately black congregation "sitting in" would be perfect.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the left are a lot like coyotes, the only thing they understand is violence. Until that changes, make them understand every opportunity.

The refusal to serve wasn't based on the group being Christian. It was because they oppose legal abortion of human babies and special rights for and promotion of homosexuality.

I guess that is the restaurant's right to choose who they will serve and who they will not. But it is incredibly hypocritical of the restaurant to say that they respect and promote inclusiveness and diversity and then follow it up with an action like this. What a bunch of two-faced bigots!

To the ground.

Patently illegal discrimination under current law and precedent.

Doesn't even compare to the Colorado ruling as those involved coercive speech violation of 1A. To wit the bakery owner was requested to craft a cake saying something she morally disagreed with. She offered to make a plain cake without speech instead. The state found her guilty of discrimination SCOTUS overturned it and protected her right to not speak.

This case does not involve speech or state coercion.

This is exactly the same as saying we don't serve Irish or fill in the blank.

Now if the group asked their servers to join them in saying the blessing before the meal then the restaurant has every right to refuse.

Christian business have been sued and put out of business for refusing services for gay marriages. The law calls it discrimination when it's done to the left.

But as a true free market believer I have no issue with any privately owned establishment picking and choosing clientele for whatever reason they choose. As politely or crudely as they so desire. It is the right of free association and ultimately the market will sort it out.

This is discrimination but not persecution per se.

How is it going the other way when events like the Colorado baker case are discovered to be cherry picked by the left to go after individuals known to be Christian?
Christianity is under assault by the left while the only thing the right and Christians seek is protection of the unborn and removal of activity they believe to be immoral from the public square. I've yet to meet any of this so called Christian taliban the left claims to exist.



Oh the irony.

Private businesses should be able to conduct business however they choose.

I wouldn't care if they went back to separate water fountains. Like Warrior said, the free market has a remedy for most things.

Whining about discrimination is weak.

An armed robbery or two would be a more effective application. The concerned employees could donate to the cause of lifting up the disadvantaged.

I thought christians were upset they couldnt discriminate? I think its funny. I guess they can go to court and get a judgement that will allow them to eat there. Or they can say a business has a right to choose customers which was their position when a baker refused to make a cake for a gay couple. I am on the side of refusing service to anybody you want. It is after all a PRIVATE business.

Everyone thinks they ought to tell others how to live. I am tired of it

I agree but not an hour and a half before start time. You agree to provide service you should be obligated to deliver. The Christian that didn't want to do gay marriages said no from the beginning.

I guess that restaurant will be loosing part of there customer base. I don't know why they would go to such a place fore there meeting any way, that's like having an AA meeting at a pub. The article does show the hypocrisy of the woke, inclusive crowd. God brought Lot out of Sodom. Maybe prayers to God that this could open someone's eyes that's having convictions about bad choices and God will have mercy on then and they will find grace.

Right are there still restaurants that have a dress code? Tie and sports coat for guys? I think some golf courses do? Or at least I have heard they do. Can't just wear any old ratty TShirt.
Really no different in big scheme things. Just what you choose to pick at.
Kinda back to the original
No Shoes
No Shirt
No Service.

Was that not directed at hippies?

Let private businesses be private. Government has for too long "stepped in" to solve issues that the private sector could better sort out.

If there was a contract, sue for damages--the cost of finding a new place to host the event.
