Flower shop refuses service to GOP

Florists, bakeries and other businesses have every right to refuse service based on their moral or religious principles. Glad to see a left-leaning business get some national attention for acknowledging this.

Florists’ free speech: Liberals in Tennessee appear to be making the case for conservative justices​

We all make discriminating decisions on where we do business and the products we buy all part of the free market. If the same policy were to be directed at the Democrats they'd call it a racist policy.:D
 
Business owners should be required to serve any customer. Period. Don't want to conflict with your religious bullshit, then don't start a business...same with your ideology

Well said comrade. The government should be your partner for every business venture. We're going to need another 87K in agents and that's just the IRS. The ministry of business affairs is going to need hundreds of thousands of business agents to oversee the American economy just like our cultural heroes of the former Soviets...

Communist businesses are the government. Businesses serve society....all of society. Discrimination has no place
 
I like the part where gay bars are forced to transform into regular bars so that everyone will be welcome and thank gawd we won't have to be dealing with organizations that focus on minority groups – too exclusionary!

It's about time the Girl Scouts were forced to drop the girl for Everybody Scouts. Everyone should be able to participate!

NO MORE DISCRIMINATION!!! We're "enlightened."
 
No. Businesses serve the owners and shareholders. Did you get your economics degree in Moscow?

Keep workshopping, Sparky
 
Did you hear that gay bars are just regular bars? I know....weird..right? Straight people can even drink there. Crazy
 
Stand up. Everything is going over your head.
Of course it is👍

Flower shops sell flowers and should do so to whoever shops there. (Unless they can demonstrate harm)

Sorry you don't like my position
 
Even you don't believe that. Anybody who sells anything has the right to exclude. Period.

It's called freedom. It might be a poor business model, but it's still our right.

It's not a belief. It's a position.
 
I understand goalpost relocation.

It looks like busybody is back, now you have someone to vacuously argue with.

I haven't moved anything. I expressed my opinion about policy and continue to do so.

You're arguing...I'm not.
 
Businesses can refuse service to anyone they want for any reason as long as the don‘t violate federal, state, or local laws. At the federal level, you can’t refuse service based on race, ethnicity, sex, age, disability, or veteran status. Some states and localities have some additional things but most of our freedoms are protected. People get refused service everyday in America for all kinds of things. Messages on shirts or signs that the owner finds offensive, not wearing a jacket, wearing a hat, being rude, being in or affiliated with a group the business owner finds objectionable, etc.

I would bet that 99.999% of privately owned businesses are more interested in their bottom line. Ignore the odd ducks and they will go away. Let the markets sort things out. If a business requires a license to sell then you have an argument. A business such as pharma, medical supplies or any other business that requires a special license and target special needs should be required to service all. FLOWERS? If they don't want to sell to you, it's their prerogative, go someplace else. IMHO
