Veteran status and citizenship have made their way onto the big board. Why not political affiliation. Should a business owner be allowed to hang up sign saying "No Democrats"?
There should be no protected classes

So you want human sacrifice to be protected by religious freedom?
Of course beliefs are a choice. When presented with conflicting evidence against your belief, you can choose to ignore the evidence or to change your belief.No, since political beliefs are a choice.
Political beliefs are no more a choice than religious beliefs. Voter registration is a choice, attending church is a choice, but beliefs are not.
Based on behaviors? Even when the behaviors are illegal and repugnant to the majority (gay pride parades in front of kids)? Agree with you there.Veteran status and citizenship have made their way onto the big board. Why not political affiliation. Should a business owner be allowed to hang up sign saying "No Democrats"?

No, since political beliefs are a choice. Huckabee Sanders was not born as Aunt Lydia, she chose to be that way. There were people working at the restaurant that Huckabee Sanders is actively working to strip rights from. She chose to be that way.
Do you have scientific evidence that being gay is not a choice?
Or to give them more patronage, as will be the case with the Red Hen.Political affiliation should not be protected, if the business is ignorant and bigoted and doesn’t want to serve a segment of the population, then it is on them and Americans have a right to voice their opinions and boycott the ignorant bigoted business owner.
That is fine too, I just know whether they discriminate because of politics, it doesn’t matter if it is Democrat or Republican, I will boycott them because what they are doing isn’t right. If you want to associate with intolerant bigots that is your choice, my choice is to stay away from narrowminded, intolerant nuts.
If sexual abuse and resulting hypersexual compulsive behaviors aren't a choice, then yeah. But it's not innate.... Good luck with your "fetal brain wash" argument. They were brainwashed, just quite a bit after they were born...Yes there is evidence that it's not a choice.
There are two hormone washes that go over the brain of a fetus during gestation. If the fetus is female it's supposed to get estrogen. If it's male it's supposed to get testosterone.
Scientific research is now showing that some fetus get the wrong wash or don't get enough of the right wash. It also shows that the brain is changed with that wash.
“Should political affiliation be a protected class?”
Of course not – this is a truly ignorant, ridiculous notion and false comparison fallacy.

Well, that's where we're headed.Should a business owner be allowed to hang up sign saying "No Democrats"?
It's not a straw man at all. You said that actions that express religious beliefs should be protected on par with beliefs themselves. If that is your position, then you must include human sacrifice among those actions that would be protected by religious freedom. If you are not willing to concede that, then you need a new argument to defend your position.
So if a man chooses to wear a dress, you think businesses should have a right to kick him out?No, since political beliefs are a choice. Huckabee Sanders was not born as Aunt Lydia, she chose to be that way. There were people working at the restaurant that Huckabee Sanders is actively working to strip rights from.

Oh my yes. We need those protections from majority regulation for a cultural group that as a whole embraces "in pride" public acts of deviant sex where they invite kids to watch "on parade"!Given the bigotry and hate directed at gay Americans in this thread, public accommodations laws with provisions for sexual orientation are clearly appropriate and warranted.
