    Hello, my name is Ya-sha-w-n, The rights of a business should not override, or Trump the rights of the people, nor should a business be allowed to put a person in a ultimatum ((example)) "you have to give up some of your rights to shop here." Businesses are in service to the public because they are occupying the land which the citizens would normally have a right to freely travel ,hunt ,and gather, but instead the people are tricked into believing that they must remain within the system,and anything other than the system is criminal or terrorists.

    I dont believe that Corporations write Laws they have no jurisdiction to do so , they write statutes, codes and amendments which are corporate policies and in real life only has jurisdiction over its employees aka citizens and such. Legal doesn't mean lawful and illegal doesnt necessarily mean unlawful either. Pls Correct me where you see that I'm wrong.
