Businesses and discrimination

I know that most people think that businesses shouldn't be allowed to discriminate based on gender, sexuality, race, religion (or lack thereof), but wouldn't it be kind of fun to find all the closeted bigots?  You know, it would be nice to see a large sign above the local corner shop, boldly stating, "No ________ allowed" so I could take my business elsewhere, to someone more deserving of my hard-earned money.  If I'm spending my money with a business, I'd like to know if they're going to spend their profits on klan robes or markers and poster board to protest the next gay pride parade so that I can be sure to avoid making donations.  I'm not saying they should beat people with the big racist stick, just a sign in the window will be enough.

Oh, you don't like a specific ethnic group, Mister Hateful McRacistpants?  Fine, enjoy your going out of business sale.

I avoid Bank of America because they support the Humane Society of the United States, a so-called charity that wants to end ownership of exotic species.  I don't shop at or donate to the Salvation Army.  Let me see your hate so I can avoid supporting your cause.

Just saying.
