But some people are saying 'for any reason' (maybe not in here but I've definitely seen it on a few news sites). I believe the facebook post netted some of that sentiment as well.

These are perfect examples because the environment is controlled and it's isolated. Regardless if it's because they are Black or because they are men, it is discriminatory and both factors are protected classes (gender and race). If you allow one group of people to do it, you have to allow the other unless there is a logical and legal reason you've elected not to.

I don't think there's a documented policy on whom to keep out but bias is strong...especially racial bias. And in today's political climate, everybody seems to be wearing a badge no matter the age group.
