Letter: Hey merchants, show the consumers your true (discriminatory) colors

If you own a business, can you please post what offends you on a sign or website? That way everyone is clear.

That way there won't be any questions, lawsuits or protests.

We as consumers will know and can decide privately if we choose to purchase from you.

We can then all be clear about what you will tolerate and we will be clear also.

I want to know if you choose to sell to the public, which public you want to sell to. How simple is that?

The South in earlier years was very proud and put signs up everywhere.

So let’s go back to those discriminatory days and let the free market you worship decide.

Margaret Holloway, Salt Lake City
