In the case of the photographer, the customer isn't being shamed, shunned, and stigmatized. The government definitely has a role here and should intervene in such cases in order to ensure that businesses treat customers equally and respectably.
- gwright 7y agoSo it is your belief that the government has a role in preventing someone from being shamed, shunned, or stigmatized by other people? Is is always important to remember that "has a role" really means "can use force to ensure compliance".
- sinsterizme 7y agoIn the case of businesses, yes that’s my belief
- gwright 7y agoWe'll have to agree to disagree. Just think about the way modern media companies constantly shame and stigmatize people. How are you going to even define when someone is "shamed" or "stigmatized"? Aren't there people who should be shamed and stigmatized? This seems completely unworkable and guaranteed to make absolutely no one happy other than the lawyers making money off of all the frivolous legal disputes.
- sinsterizme 7y agoYeah, you have a good point. My opinions are pretty recently formed on this area so I'm probably off-base, and it was interesting hearing your perspective. Fortunately I'm not a judge! :-)
