The only attorney who would ever consider taking a case like that is Denny Crane.

I guess one could also argue that allowing somebody to access your website is similar to choosing who you allow to enter your own property. If an individual chose to allow only black people into their house then that wouldn't be illegal so why would it be different to not allow somebody to access your website?

A webpage is generally considered a public business if commerce is involved. The rights of public ingress, egress and regress are different than the rights of private ingress, egress and regress. You can not say that blacks, Asians, or speed bumps are not allowed to enter into your place of business, you can say that they are not allowed into your private home.

While I hesitate to mention the fact that some clearly illegal activities occur on the internet, *rolls eyes*, it is possible that a dating site counts as a private club. Or, they may provide access to pigmented Americans but require themselves to be identified as such.

If a website involves a subscription model then you could argue that it's not a public business and can therefore reserve the right to prevent access to anybody the website owner chooses.

That would be similar to the right reserved by various social clubs and even country clubs to restrict limit membership. However, even they run into a different set of values when holding a public event. A local club can restrict me from membership because I am a heathen, but they can not stop me entering the grounds during a public charity event.

It does get back to the whole issue about why you'd want to irk a bunch of pigmentation challenged americans, or NativeAmericandates, or Asianassociation. There is no real denial of service, as people that join these services are obviously wanting to find a certain ethnic type, and placing my picture on a Find-a-swede dating site is just plain silly. I was certainly an AIM rabble rouser in my youth, but I don't see what the harm is in EuroAmericans wanting to date other EuroAmericans, even if I am offended about the concept of "stealing our women", even if I did steal one of your women myself.
