That is the right question: how does a public accommodation law square


With the 1A. What’s frustrating is the various arguments that keep being thrown around that are irrelevant because they aren’t even covered by public accommodation laws. Private events, for-hire photographers, artists etc are completely irrelevant to the discussion. It also seems to have morphed from being about religion and free exercise to free expression as an “artist.”

If one wanted to make a halfway intellectually honest analogy over photography it would be this one: could a storefront where anyone from the public can walk in off the street and get a photo done refuse to take a photo of a gay couple in their wedding attire because the owner purportedly doesn’t approve of gay marriage? An interracial couple?

I would think not.
