We reserve the right to serve refuse to anyone.

There was a discussion on facebook about a few laws in Kansas and Arizona that concern who a business has the right to serve and not serve.

I wrote this:

If a businessman doesn't want to serve someone, they have that right in a free market. They are free to lose potential business for their decisions. For the offended party, they have a right to publicly protest or advertise against the businessman. The Government cannot pass laws to force someone to serve someone else. It has no right to control that or even personal morality. Death threats and violence should be treated as the illegal acts they are with no bearing on why the perpetrators thought they could act that way. A school can't decide not to teach a group of people though they can control conduct on school grounds. An individual teacher must perform according to the employment contract or they are free to seek employment elsewhere. Currently, our Government is only interested in granting crony benefits to vocal groups that support the progressive agenda.
