OTOH, I see some who are so anti-freedom and anti-dissent that they would compel people to materially support a government they disagree with.

How do you feel about the Third Amendment?

And it's not like she's a Trump supporter (political affiliation), but she gets her orders from Trump. She didn't have the finesse of the acting troupe who addressed Pence after the show, but because she didn't act against a class of people I'm not aware of any laws she broke. And it's become apparent Conservatives do not like the ability of a business to refuse business when one of their own is refused.
According to my small survey, liberals don't like refusing business for political affiliation either.

Because of who Sarah Sanders is, I don't see this as an issue of political affiliation. If Trump were Hitler, she'd be Goebbels. As I stated earlier I don't think she should have been kicked out, but, at the same time, it's because of what she does is why she was kicked out. Would it be tolerable for a restaurant to refuse to serve the executives of a media company who slanders a local politician?
She wasn't refused business for political affiliation.

We'll have to agree to disagree about all this.
Hopefully your disagreement is only about where the "refusal" line should be drawn, not with the fundamental idea that refusing to participate with a government is sometimes appropriate.
Riiiiight....working for Trump had nothing to do with it.
Were the Red Hen in DC, I doubt the authorities would
agree with you.
To post about having been kicked out of an eatery for one's
political association strikes me as social & political commentary.
It doesn't bespeak intent to affect business interests, even
though there could be that effect.
You're unclear.
"Working for Trump" isn't her political affiliation. Her political affiliation would be described in terms like "Republican" or "conservative" or "authoritarian."
Political affiliation is about beliefs and values. Sanders was refused service because of the owner's feelings about Sanders's past actions.
Do you understand the difference between a belief and an action?
To put it another way: I hope you disagree with @Shadow Wolf because you think that Sanders isn't like Goebbels, not because you think a restaurant should be obliged to even serve Goebbels.

Her actions and working for Trump has everything to do with it, and why this isn't based on political affiliation. You might as well say Bush Jr. had a shoe thrown at him due to party affiliation.
Do you always miss the point?
You'll say anything to just bicker.
Try to be interesting...like S Wolf.
That would depend upon the motive of the shoe tosser.
If because he's Bush, then this is personal.
But the gal kicked out of the restaurant
not because of who she is, but rather who she
works for. Sounds like political affiliation to me.
Some might argue that who one works for defines
one. That's not enuf.

Angry people so seldom ever think about consequences of actions.
Of course, reciprocation would be wrong when done to their side.

If the actions of the Trump administration don't call for an extreme response, what would?
