You do if they are open to the public. We once lived in a country where people were banned from entering buildings based on the color of their skin.
If I run a private public space I shouldn’t (and can’t) discriminate arbitrarily on who can enter.
- maxerickson 5y agoPlaces open to the public can almost arbitrarily ask people to leave (at which point their presence becomes trespassing), they just can't ask people to leave for being members of protected classes. So if I don't like what your t-shirt says, that's all it takes. And for instance, Walmart doesn't have to open to the public tomorrow just because they opened to the public today.

- filoeleven 5y ago> private public space Please explain further what that means. Also please explain how setting restrictions on use of the space based on conduct, such as being vaccinated or not, is more arbitrary than, say, a dress code.
