>Why should the government be able to legally control what I choose to do with my property and my goods. ... So why should the government force me to sell them to people I do not want to?
Because your property and your ability to sell goods is directly supported by the people you discriminate against.
How do people, customers and employees alike, get to your property? Roads? Helicopter overseen by the FAA? How do packages get delivered over the roads, semi, USPS, UPS/fedex. Who pays to protect your building from crime and fire, who pays for the energy infrastructure, who pays for the teachers teaching your workforce?
Your store isnt an isolated self sufficient entity, its part of a web of interconnected forces mutually benefiting each other. There is a social contract, that if you want to profit off the infrastructure of the United States, you wont discriminate.
