    They should intervene in cases of threats and violence but how people think, I don't think so.

    except trump supports laws letting people discriminate as long as they claim it was for "religious" reasons, and he and mike pence plan to roll back discrimination protections enacted by obama and want to sign the FADA into law

    this discussion is very relevant

    how well did the free market help slaves in the US or blacks when they were trying to gain their civil rights?
    that's hilarious considering i'm talking to someone who's advocating for legally sanctioned discrimination

    holy f--- this is so r-----ed for SO many reasons
    i've been trying to keep it civil til now but holy s--- that was stupid to say
    human beings aren't treated as property now, why would you even bring up slaves? back then they dealt with black people like they did cows, sheep and goats. there's no f---ing risk of that happening again for any reason.

    and the difference with when they were fighting for civil rights is that they have civil rights now. the government is not a privately owned business. i'm saying that, you're free to find dudes attractive. a backwards a--- jaded probably closeted homophobic guy running a convenience store should be allowed to find dudes that like dudes gross and not have to be made uncomfortable by serving them in his private business. he should be allowed to run HIS PRIVATE BUSINESS as he sees fit. Gay people aren't going to run out of convenience stores to use, because someone is going to see the market of gay people who have nowhere to shop and focus on that niche and become rich off of it. that's so not equivalent to jim crow where black people and white people were forced to use different bathrooms and drinking fountains. jesus christ what a false equivalency, this is WAY more of a reach than what I said about hitler using thought policing to brainwash nazis, f---ing h---.
    you are literally mentally incapable of thinking from any other view point that you aren't in yourself. giving private business owners the right to refuse service for whoever they want to refuse service to is SO NOT THE SAME THING as "legally sanctioned discrimination".

    so legally allowing people to turn away people they don't like due to the color of their skin or gender or sexual orientation or w.e (so... discrimination) is somehow not the same as legally sanctioned discrimination? lol
    also, this doesn't just include businesses, it effects everything lol

    why is it always liberals that use slavery as an argument against free market capitalism? Like you guys can't come up with a better argument than that?

    These anti-Trump activists who make it sound as if Trump’s election is the worst thing since Joffrey taking the Iron Throne are going to feel so dumb as well as relieved in 1-2 years’ time, after they get to know the real Donald Trump. The Trump they know doesn’t exist in the real world. He’s a caricature, a bad one at that created by our pathetic liberal press for obvious reasons. All of your fears and prejudices about this man are unfounded and misguided, as you will soon see. Mark those words down. Take it from one of the most prescient posters on SX80!

    Also, this guy might quell some of your fears. He also predicted an easy win for Trump the day before. He’s an Obama supporter, incidentally.

    Asked later, as he signed autographs, how such a database would be different from Jews having to register in Nazi Germany, Mr. Trump repeatedly said, “You tell me,” until he stopped responding to the question.
