This argument does not hold water. How many topless women have you seen on
Main Street prior to enactment of 2002-13?

And here we have Mr. Wilson forcing his moral standards on all those around him
feeling personally threatened as a gay couple enter his establishment holding
hands.
FYI, Mr. Wilson, civil courts are flooded with litigation concerning prejudice
based on race, gender, sexual orientation, age, etc. etc.
You're right, Mr. Wilson. We can clean up the entire court system by saying
that a business that sells a good or service publicly can deny an individual on
any grounds he wants. I say "he" because in the world you define, women
probably don't own businesses.
Time to dust off those old 1950's southern signs of "Whites Only" and "Colored
Only". While we are at it, let's get the hammer and plywood out and make a new
sign: "Homosexuals Only".
Until then . . .
Take care of yourselves and each other,
