Depends. Is it your house, that is completely private property (like completely private clubs) so you have the right to remove them. IF it is a building accessible to the public, like say a restaurant, then you do not have the right to do that. If you want the right to do that, make sure your business is not accessible to the public.

That's discrimination.

You just have to tell them "sorry, but we cannot serve people who are not members of our business; but you can always apply if you think you have a shot at it".

I did not deny the "holocaust."

Anyways, I don't want to change the subject any further.

Fair enough, it's just so much irony about. Can't help but comment.

Then, do not operate a business that serves the public.
I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.

You gave the blank to fill in.

Even if it was none of the above, you still have to serve them if you are a public business. I could understand, if say, you had a restraining order.

So it's apparently ok to refer to blacks and gays as "it" then?

Or if they were somehow disrupting the business. For instance having someone who starts a food fight in a restaurant can be kicked out and prevented from returning.

What if the business had a sign, I.E. "No Jews" "No Gays" or something like that, then it is the customers problem for walking into a place they know they will not be welcomed into.

And again, that would be illegal. If you do not want to serve a particular customer base, do not make a business that serves the public.

I filled in the blank. That's what people do with blanks. They fill them in.

First off, why would you have a sign that says that? That's discrimatory and illegal.
Second off, I don't believe your last thought.
