Questions

2. Broadly, how do we decide where blame lies?
3. a. Should Walmart have refused service to Williams when she appeared in the store without clothing from the waist down? Explain.
b. If so, how do we decide what forms of behavior, expression, and appearance would justify denial of service?
4. How do you feel about the following online comment from "HBT" about the Williams case:
Wal-Mart is a store, not a babysitter. Why should there be any liability.[sic] If someone is that deranged, or have addictive personality,[sic] let them inhale and deal with the consequences. There are warnings on the can anyways. Common sense."
