What is a "snowflake"?

[Mister D]

I believe any free person should have the right to refuse to serve any other person, for any reason.

Wolf can't justify his position. He will simply remind you of what the law currently states. Might makes right.

I'd have to include people who are so sensitive to what other people might be doing in the privacy of their own homes that they want to be able to refuse to serve or sell to them, and claim to be "hurt" if the law requires them to do so.

You mean like on the ShowTime series Shameless where the neighbors, the white dude and black girlfriend who ran the neighborhood bar, ran an online porn show from their bedroom? They never refused service, and how would they even know who's watching, or care as long as they were getting paid. They didn't act hurt. No snowflakes on that show.

Well, you just don't want to be forced into slavery. Snowflake!! :P

[Standing Wolf]

Because the law is the law and the law is right.

I'd be the last person on the planet to suggest that was true...but if it makes you happy, you go with whatever fantasy/straw man serves your narrative, D.

You've suggested nothing but that and your petulance is unimpressive.

Except that when you apply for and receive a license to conduct a public business, you agree to abide by the rules that come with it. You voluntarily put certain limits on how you deal with the public, among other things. In your private life, you can choose to associate or conduct business with whomever you like; in the public marketplace, you cannot.

Yeah, you'd be the last person to do that.

Okay, that was more than a little weird. Not sure how any of that applies to the discussion, but...whatever.
