Should a business be allowed to not serve someone because they voted for someone they don't like?

And it doesn't matter what you think.

It doesn't matter what anybody thinks. Trump put a solid Christian homophone on the ticket. And got enough Electoral College votes to take office.
That matters. What you think about it doesn't.

The guy that you support for president of the USA picked a Christian anti-gay bigot for vice president on his ticket.
Out of everyone eligible for the office, Mike Pence is who Trump picked.
What about that is hard to understand?

I will admit I don't know about that, I will look into it, and get back, thanks.

Well lets wait and see what happens, in stead of wasting our energy.

Trump's supporters seem to think that he has no history or track record. He does. They just don't want to talk about it or acknowledge that it's there.
Trump is an unapologetic bigot. That is not news, nor is it a vast left wing conspiracy. He is very open about it.

I have been hearing crap about each other over and over, Hillary isn't perfect either, as also Obama, the whole point is to tell him show us what he is made of, he was elected, Hillary lost, I'm sure if Hillary won you would want people to let her get ob with the job, so you cannot have your own way.

Actually....I think it touches on religious discrimination because people are often one or the other based on faith positions ... often... not always but often... the DNC more open to atheism and secular positions, the most secular views of liberal Catholics and liberal protestants tend to be DNC

and so... it does overlap religious discrimination

Meh, that connection is extremely tenuous at best. If you stretch it this far you could that laws permitting abortion even though anti-choicers believe it's wrong are religious discrimination.

Pence has a proven track record that is anti-LBGT, anti-science, anti-woman, anti-worker, and anti-environment. In all reality, if our system were good his insistence on making his Conservative Catholic views into state legislation should bar him from public office. He doesn't care that other's don't share his beliefs - you'll be bound, by law, to his views anyways.

I vote yes. I'd rather stay consistent with free market than deviate now. If a business wishes to make this choice, I see no reason to stop them. Well, other than it would be easy to lie to them to get a meal/service and that it would alienate a whole lot of people (including non-Trump voters). But if that's the road they want to go down, I say the market can easily tolerate it. If this were the only place in the area to eat, and somehow, magically they could actually tell who voted for Trump and deny service based on that, then I'd perhaps have a different position.

I just don't understand why conservatives support someone like Mitt Rmoney over Trump. Why didn't they like him before? Probably russia related.

They didn't need convinced and lied to about him being a Christian.

Who really knows, Trump won, let him get on with his job.

Trump's first executive decision as President was to appoint a vehemently anti-LBGT and anti-feminist dude as VP.
It wasn't until later that his willingness to lie about what credentials he has became obvious.
But, hey, you're a Trump supporter. Not me.

For example, this Hawaiian restaurant says they will not serve people who voted for Trump
'You cannot eat here': Hawaii café riles residents with ban on Trump voters

Nope. Shouldn't anyway. You shoud not be able to discriminate against people. You can discriminate against what you produce though. Goes back the cake thing. I can refuse to make a cake that states "KKK for life" but I cannot refuse a normal cake to a KKK member.

Did you forget about the last 8 years of Birther trolling (including from Trump), and Republicans using every tactic they could to obstruct Obama's policies?

 

[Monk Of Reason]

Come on your just trying to put the man down at any cost, be fare and give him a go, don't be like all those liberals crying over their lose, I have never in my life seen such disgusting behavior over losing.

No...the context of this quote is objectively anti-muslim rather than pro-LGBTQ. The only good thing about Trump no the LGBTQ front is that he hasn't ever actually given a damn one way or the other. For the most part I think that he has only said things against marriage equality to get the votes. He kinda just says stuff without meaning anything. Pence on the other hand is in fact has a long line of anti-gay politics. I've already run through a list of **** in another thread and maybe I'll do it again. Anyone that puts a tiny bit of effort can find it. But I feel that Pence may have been chosen actually as assasination insurance. For real I feel this could be a possibility.

Anyone who can't see that wasn't a pro-LBGT statement isn't putting much thought into it. He didn't say he was going to protect the rights or status of sexual and gender variants, he said his going to protect us from the "ebul Mooswum" boogeyman, something we really don't need protecting from because there are very few of them and very few LBGT suffering at their hands compared to theChristian gay bashers and Christian politicians crusading against LBGT rights that are already here in America. He was playing up anti-Muslim sentiments, and fooling his followers who never take the time to really understand these issues into believing he said something pro-LBGT, when thus far we have no reason to believe he is not concerned about preserving or advancing LBGT rights.

True. People need to read more than the headline.
