Ok Joe, while I incorrectly associating the term Black Power exclusively to the Black Panther movement. However, before you go off on that tangent, this does not negate my statemebts that you are not presenting a reasonable case in suggesting that the hypothetical use of this term is similar to the gay legal case -which involves the refusal of a business service "only" related to a lawful gay loving relationship, which seems to be for bigoted reasons.

Regardless of some individuals religious based prejudices, the judges ruled, based on the evidence presented and the law in a few areas where similar cases have come forward. Like with other discrimination isssues, changes are built on many such rulings over time.

I am not lured into a tempting concept you put forward, that the issues in this case are  solely libertarian based. To me, they are clearly related to gay discrimination. The judge who directly reviewed the evidence, which we were not privy to in entirity, seemed to agree.
