It was this case:
Heart of Atlanta Motel, Inc. v. United States (1964)
Personally I think the whole case and what it established sucked and was terribly misguided. It destroyed about 200 years of private property law. The upside of ending discrimination would have been accomplished in time anyway. Can anyone imagine a small business today refusing to deal with people because they are black or Asians or something?
That's what I'm saying. As a small business owner, I see one color, green. But if a guy wants to serve only whites, or only blacks, let him make a go at it, Even in the most racist places in the country that shit isn't going to fly today and anyone who hung a sign out front that said "no *******" or "no women" or "no ___________" would quickly go under.
