Post #110,998 by drewk 7/22/03 8:53:56 PM Reply	Turn it around Remember my example, pre-1960's Birmingham, Alabama. The law prohibited serving blacks and whites at the same lunch counter. Would a proprieter have been "wrong" to violate the local law? === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
Post #111,004 by broomberg 7/22/03 9:20:07 PM Reply	I'm merely exploring your "harm" limitation You conveniently ignored that and threw up the Birmingham straw man.
Post #111,086 by drewk 7/23/03 8:02:54 AM Reply	Not allowed to buy my product != harm If I own a product, and I don't want to sell it to you, why should I have to? If I provide a service and I don't want to provide it to you, why should I have to? And why is Birmingham a straw man? That was specifically to refute the point that community consensus should be allowed to dictate how I run my own business. === Implicitly condoning stupidity since 2001.
