Denver bar owner: Prove to me that you're vaccinated or stay outhttps://hotair.com/allahpundit/2021/04/09/denver-bar-owner-prove-to-me-that-youre-vaccinated-or-stay-out-n382206“I’m not an essential service,†he told CBS Denver of his demand for evidence of immunization. “If you don’t feel comfortable doing that, don’t come.â€
Wouldn’t be my position if I owned his bar, but I don’t own it. Why shouldn’t he be able to set the rules for his own premises, particularly when, as he says, he doesn’t provide an essential service? Let the market sort this out. There’ll be plenty of other bars happy to welcome the unvaccinated. It reminds me of the debate over gay patrons demanding wedding cakes from Christian bakers except with the parties on opposite sides this time. “The unvaccinated shouldn’t face discrimination,†some righties will say. To which some lefties will reply, “This isn’t Jim Crow. It’s not like you can’t find another bar in town that’s willing to serve you. Just go elsewhere.â€
Hopefully this guy's competitors remember to send him a thank you Christmas card ... if they can find the freeway underpass to which he moved.
