Many federal judges like to make their own law. That's how we got Roe V Wade.
Doesn't make them right.
A business owner can give anyone they want a discount or not for any reason. It's entirely up to them. If the public doesn't like what they do, they'll close.
Sure they can if they want to face federal charges. If she wants to continue what amounts to religious discrimination, she may just have to close her doors. I have no problem with what she did because I don't get the feeling she was trying to set off a firestorm. She seemed to just think it would be a nice gesture. Just a little something that she could do to let a customer know that I love the fact that you love Jesus and are willing to pray over your food.
I owned a retail business for 10 years. I sold my product for what I wanted to sell it for and gave discounts to anyone I pleased. If someone didn't like it, they could go somewhere else. Let the market rule.
And if it had been discovered that you were discriminating against a protected group with your practice you would have faced federal charges if it were not corrected.
I would have burned it to the ground before I would let anyone or anything tell me any different.
That's your right. That's the market ruling. Operate within the market's rules, or the market will force you out.
