[QUOTE="Ace_on_the_Turn, post: 2733154, member: 27417"] If you will note, I put public in quotes. Walmart is a public business that is publicly owned. ALDI is a public business that is privately owned. They do business with the general public, i.e., a public business. The ownership is irrelevant. Oak Tree Country Club is a private club, i.e., a private business. They are allowed to exclude anyone they want. In a private transaction, i.e., you and another person, you can not deal with anyone for any reason. You're not a public business. The simple fact is, any company that is open to the public, cannot discriminate based on protected classes. That's the law of the land. It's settled law. If the SCOTUS rules that homosexuality is a protected class, they will have the same protections under the law that the other protected classes have. [/QUOTE]
