1. If you enter my place of business & you start calling for an over-throw of the U.S. govt, or shout racist stuff or yell insults at me or my employees or my staff - I will ask you to leave & have the police remove you if U refuse. /2
2. In banning U from my place of business, I have NOT violated any of your rights. U have no right to disrupt my place of business and I have every right to not allow disgusting ppl like you to verbally abuse me, my customers or staff. /3
3. In fact, one of the great things abt American ideals (tho not always f/u in reality) that we should not allow discrimination based on a person's race, sex, religion, class, sexual orientation, disability, etc, BUT indvl citizens have a RIGHT to free association. /4
4. Similarly, businesses should not be allowed to discriminate based on race, sex, religion, class, sexual orientation, disability, etc, but can forbid/ban based on behavior/speech. /5
