Should There Be A Right To Discriminate?

[San Lumen]

It doesnt matter that its not the 50s anymore by your standard Greyhound should have that right.

Yup.

The essential service provided is lodging.

But this lodging is temporary, and I don't know of anyone who depends on hotels to survive.

Why should the hotel be able to drop something like that the weekend of the wedding when guests have traveled a long distance?

Unless, in the agreement, there was a clause preventing either party from withdrawing, because it is their business and their property.

Should the engaged couple have asked is there anyone you dont serve at your hotel? If so why?

They shouldn't have to.

if they shouldn't have too then why does the hotel have the right to tell our gay couple or any other group they are not welcome?

[Ors Might]

Yup.

Does the gay couple own the hotel?

Does the gay couple own the hotel?

No and I never said they did

There you go. That’s why the hotel has the right.

[Estanglia]

Yup.

Because it's their business.

[Galloism]

They can also decline to do straight weddings or white weddings. It’d be discrimination. And it should be allowed.

I can't imagine any venue doing something like that.

It happens.

[Galloism]

I can't imagine any venue doing something like that.

Irrelevant. They’d be within their rights.

Technically, in certain times and places, it's already happened.

Good for them. Wouldn’t hire’em myself though.

Ok What would you do in the scenario if you were the couple getting married at the hotel?

[Estanglia]

Demand a refund and go to another hotel.

Emotional arguments aren't gonna work.

And somehow magically be able to book rooms for all your quests and get all the planning the wedding done at the other hotel in mere hours?

Lumen, what would you do if your wedding plans suddenly went awry for, I don’t know, pick a damned reason? People have to deal with that kind of shit all the time.

[San Lumen]

Because you rented their space and you booked rooms in advance they dont have the right at the very last minute to say oh sorry we didn't know a gay couple is attending therefore they can't stay here.

This kind of thing shouldn't be one of them

Lots of things shouldn't happen.

Why fucking not? Out of all the asshole reasons one could have to screw a person over, whether it be incompetence or apathy, what makes these things so special as to not be among them?

[Galloism]

Because it's their business.

Ok What would you do in the scenario if you were the couple getting married at the hotel?

What if they were all attending a KKK religious revival? Should the hotel have the right to refuse them at the last minute because they don't want a bunch of KKK staying at their hotel?

They've already bought the giant cross, buckets of pitch (Is that how you buy pitch? in buckets? i've never done it.), and the giant tent.

Might be more effective to carry it in gallon gas tanks.

Yes, can confirm, have bought pitch.

You know, this is how I wind up being a fountain of knowledge.

And unless, in the contract, there was a clause preventing the termination of the contract, they are within their rights to end that contract.

at the very last minute too? If that is the case why shouldnt anyone hosting an event at a hotel or any other venue have to ask first if they welcome all regardless of race, religion or sexual orientation?

They probably should. You know, because making sure there aren’t any complications housing your guests is a pretty basic part of hosting an event?
