Actually, the pub ejection was not for not buying, but for not buying enough drinks. Landlords who complain of patrons “nursing their pints” are well-known. ;-)
I think it would be reasonable to ask that you demonstrate that the violent elements of the activity are consensual and within the law
This is, of course, quite reasonable. It would be bizarre for there to be a law to force people to allow others to use their property for breaking the law.
I don't think that gives them the right to prevent you from doing it in a hireable hall they run.
What, then, do you think should happen when we have got to this stage? Should I be permitted to call the authorities and have them allow me to gain entry to the premises by force?
By the way, I picked this example as it is does not involve religion but does involve an activity that many people do have a prejudice against.
