I have yet to see a single person argue otherwise. They have the right to ask, and courts have stated that you have the right to refuse. It's your idiotic assertion that it "violated your constitutional rights" that is entirely wrong.

You're gonna probably need a sheet of loose leaf and some colors to explain it to him but take your time and draw slowly.

They can absolutely ban you from coming back to the store.

I wouldn’t suspect you of committing a crime, until it becomes illegal to be a stubborn, pedantic a-hole.

True. Can they just arbitrarily do so or must there be a reason. If it for refusal to show a receipt we then go back to the circular argument of the justifiability of this policy. While private businesses have certain rights, those rights are not absolute. Would it be a civil right s violation to ban a customer who has not been accused of a crime but has refused to show a receipt.

It can be arbitrary but they have a reason here.

I told the officer that demanding to see my receipt was a violation of my constitutional rights and walked off. He did not try to detain me.

That's for if you're banned because you're a minority or a Muslim, not because you're an a-hole

State actor vs private actor. Read a book every once and a while. It does wonders.

And just wear this damn covid-19 mask.

And just report your damn neighbors for not wearing theirs.

And just give your pastor your damn name and address to give to the local government

It just show me your damn papers, please

And just wear this damn arm band

And just March into this damn Camp

And just get on this damn train car

And just take this damn shower


And, goodnight sweet prince.


You see, principles matter. Without them, the slopes are very slippery

16 pages and over 300 down votes later someone finally gets it. Thank you so much , my friend. I have been astounded at just how easily our citizens have become sheeple.

Too many would rather make snarky comments and personal attacks and they have no clue what they lose by just accepting something cause that is the way its done. Just keep fighting the fight.
