I am confident that the ridiculous straw man cases you pose would result in cordial admittance by Stephanie to her fine restaurant. Let me know if she responds differently.
You are wrong. These are true examples, not merely straw man cases. If Mrs. Wilkinson is going to throw out persons merely for being a member of the opposition party with which she has ideological differences with, than one can easily deduce that Mrs. Wilkinson would do the same with other persons with which she may have a difference with opinion with as well. Mrs. Wilkinson runs a business open to the general public, everyone. If she did not want to allow a certain segment of the population in to her restaurant she should have it plainly stated to the customer before they make reservations or enter her establishment. That she had Sarah Saunders and her family members in her restaurant (the restaurant had taken the reservation and seated them) and than made the decision to throw them out, not for a violation of restaurant policy, but merely being a person she did not politically agree with, shows Mrs. Wilkinson to be callous and rude. Mrs. Wilkinson's motivation had nothing to do with moral convictions but lack of them. Her intent was to cause as much stress and mental strain as she could to Sarah Saunders and her
family that was with her. Mrs. Wilkinson displays no good qualities in doing this just bigotry and intolerance and a desire to make people she disagrees with suffer.

Her low-key request that Sarah leave was all about her public behavior as an individual, telling lies for a liar all in service to exclusionary acts and policy targeting some of her wait staff.
Who is she to judge someones "public behavior" . If she does in fact have these "special powers" to judge people based on what she perceives to be moral than my examples I stated earlier are correct. Apparently Mrs. Wilkinson has a political morality test in which she gets to decide who she deems worthy and unworthy based on her view of what is right and wrong and can than throw them out of her restaurant at her whim. This is Hitlerian!!!

Excluding an excluder seems measured, symmetrical, and fair.
This is stupid to the Nth degree. So now that Mrs. Wilkinson, through her actions, has officially become an excluder, if someone is to throw her out of their establishment, would they merely be adhering to the concept that excluding the excluder is measured, symmetrical and fair?
