    Yes, and they were conservative Democrats.

    You right-wingers are only logical in your own minds.

    I don't think so. When I and or my family goes out to eat, politics stays at home.

    No possible way.. It is the Liberal States that allow thus.

    Too many verses of Kumbaya to do that.

    Depends on the nature of the business.
    Sorry no they didn't. The overwhelming majority remained Democrats until they died. Which was in most cases thirty to forty years ago.

    Actually, no. And they were socially conservative Democrats.

    Back in the day, race politics wasn't divided by party so much as the Mason Dixon Line. Social cons in both parties tended to be racist. This is why a socially liberal Democrat like Kennedy chose as his running mate the socially conservative Democrat Johnson. I guarantee you that Johnson shared more views on race with Nixon than he did with Kennedy.

    Name a business that can deny services to handicap individuals or refuse ADA guidelines.

    I suppose that you've demonstrated my point. You can't imagine why an NWA hat might be both offensive or uncomfortable, and you insist that making the country great is fascist. That seems to be you position. Great to know.

    Business where the specific handicap precludes the ability to perform the given task.

    I guarantee you Kennedy and Nixon had more in common when it came to race than either had with Johnson. The only real accomplishment of Nixon's Southern strategy was to convince Wallace to mount an independent campaign for president this almost certainly cost Humphrey the presidency.

    Other than just showing your complete lack of class and decorum, no it's not harmful. It just shows you to be a fool. If I saw somebody verbally confronting with profanity a person with "Bernie for President" t-shirt, I would have a very low opinion of the confronter, just like I would have if that person verbally confronting someone with a MAGA t-shirt. It's just classless, and shows a lack of self-restraint.

    From my understanding as long as you’re not yelling “fire” you’re okay.

    If you’re speaking in terms of manners and decorum than the fish rots from the head and this thread likely qualifies for consideration in the ‘most hypocritical’ category.

    Trumper’s complaining about decorum.

    Specifically, name a business — or industry — that is open to the public and is able to deny services to all handicap individuals or ADA requirements.

    The left are suffering from a form of insanity. It's just as wrong to shout at and throw stuff at a person to drive them out of a restaurant because you hate their politics, as it is to do it because you don't like them for their race or sexual lifestyle, or any other number of reasons. But the dems think their hate, is a good hate.

    Some things never change with Democrats, they are, and always have been hate-filled bigots, who want to harm people they don't like.

    The left are anything but tolerant.

    They just pretend they are the kind, tolerant people, accepting of everyone else, because it reinforces the illusion that they are the good people. Deluding themselves into believing they are inherently good, gives them justification to physically attack the people they disagree with. Cuz they have declared themselves to be the good and righteous people, don't 'cha know.

    Exactly right. Hiding behind "inclusivity" is actually the recipe for ensuring division which creates the chaos that makes authoritarianism possible.

    If I wear a MAGA cap to a restaurant and I get harassed, the person doing the harassing will come out looking worse than me.

    "Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me" So if you walk into a restaurant in Los Angeles, MAGA cap firmly planted on your head, and people immediately call you names, give the finger they're "come out looking worse than me"?
