John Locke or Thomas Jefferson could only cheer. Since then the right of free association has experienced many blows, from the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which defined any business enterprise as a public accommodation to be controlled by government, straight to this New Jersey decision. If a group is politically powerful enough, it can have the tyrants in black robes override anyone's property rights. This leads to some peculiar situations. But it is a completely arbitrary designation.
All property is owned by someone.
Either it is owned by private individuals or it is owned by the government. It makes sense that the owner is also in control. The phrase itself flies in the face of a free society's legal regime. The practice also violates the 13th amendment, since owners and their employees are forced to serve those whom they do not wish to serve. That is why libertarians must seek to do more than reverse the most recent attack on the Boy Scouts.
