A restaurant receives praise and anger for its policy of giving 15% off if your table says grace.
NPR:
And some people wondered aloud if the restaurant’s practice amounts to discrimination. The Department of Justice says that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on religion in a public accommodation, such as a restaurant. Whether the diner is in violation isn’t immediately clear.
We put in a call to the DOJ for clarification and will update this post if we hear back.
What do you think? Is this discrimination on the basis of religion?
