What liability suits are you referring to?

Well Problem begins when people start limiting services based off sex, gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc

How can a heterogenous society function if people want to function homogenially ?

I don't think it's racist. If you abuse the privilege of having pizza delivered, than you don't get that privilege anymore.

In United States anti-discrimination law, the theory of disparate impact holds that practices in employment, housing, or other areas may be considered discriminatory and illegal if they have a disproportionate "adverse impact" on persons along the lines of a protected trait. Although the protected traits vary by statute, most federal civil rights laws include race, color, religion, national origin, and gender as protected traits, and some laws include disability status and other traits as well.

Disparate impact contrasts with disparate treatment. A disparate impact is unintentional, whereas a disparate treatment is an intentional decision to treat people differently based on their race or other protected characteristics.

So then you agree this isn't race based and that it is a legitimate risk management decision?

The real problem is when a government begins to force free enterprise to serve people they don't wish to serve whether it is geographically or based off anything else. Let the market decide who should stay in business. But I am sure you do not agree with free market capitalism.

This should be the policy:

If they called and ordered a pizza I would make them pay with a credit card and I would say meet me two blocks away and I would throw the shite out on the curb.

ut what does denying a service to thousands of willfully paying people do because a freak accident solve?


Well it makes their employees less likely to get robbed or murdered, for one.

Instead of focusing on the business not going into a community, how about focusing on making a community safe for businesses?

Nah. Let's blame the business instead. RACIST!

It's not racist but it happens to effect a sub population that largely consists on one race.

Now if they were denying services to central city, holly grove, parts of Algiers and mid city, etc then maybe one could bring that up accusation. But no it's not racist but it does discriminate against that area, and understandably so do to their employee deaths as of late. but I don't think it's fair to cast off an whole area because of one awful and tragic situation.

Maybe I could be wrong. Maybe several drivers have had problems in that area

this is a pretty standard practice in all business

just like in the Oil and Gas industry if someone cuts their thumb in Brazil, the entire company has to shut down for a Safety Stand Down meeting and everyone has to wear cut resistant gloves anytime they walk outside

because of a few idiots, the rest have to pay

its all about liability

Have you ever heard of the term risk management?

Dominos doesn't give a single frick what color you are as long as you pay for pizza and don't kill its employees
