I agree, they are allowed to limit the number of customers they serve based upon arbitrary rules. However, if this becomes standard practice this policy would become quite discriminatory.
Can i put a sign in front of my business that says "Whites only"? Sure, its stupid to do so as you alienate potential customers.
I don’t think so. My sister has worked at a friends restaurant for years and she would get mad because people who’s animals were obviously not service, they were not allowed to ask for any proof because of HIPPA
Did you actually read the article you linked? Go back and look at the sections "Who Must Follow These Laws" and "Who Is Not Required to Follow These Laws."
HIPAA only applies to healthcare providers. The restaurant is allowed to do something like this, but if they want to go broke I say let them.

That's not because of HIPAA, its because of ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act).
That falls under “Americans with Disabilities Act”. HIPPA is purely for health care providers.
Wrong. It's federal privacy law.
