Despite being of intense interest to religious groups, state RFRAs have never been successfully used to defend discrimination against gays—and have rarely been used at all.[31] The New York Times noted in March 2015 that state RFRAs became so controversial is due to their timing, context and substance following the Hobby Lobby decision.[32]

also from the Supreme Court, in the same article

The Supreme Court for example stated in Estate of Thornton v. Caldor, Inc. (1985): "The First Amendment ... gives no one the right to insist that, in pursuit of their own interests others must conform their conduct to his own religious necessities.’"

Man you should really do some research on what RFRA says and how it works. It provides a religious exemption from laws that substantially burden religious exercise.

"Substantial burden" is the key phrase. It means that courts apply the strict scrutiny test. Under this test the law stands in full force if the government can demonstrate the following:

1). The law furthers a compelling governmental interest. 2). The law is the least restrictive means of furthering that interest.

So taking your example, the government can easily meet strict scrutiny. First, preventing racial discrimination is a compelling interest, explicitly granted to the government in the 14th amendment. And second, granting an exception to racist business owners would defeat the very purpose of the law. So RFRA would not provide a defense under your example.

R/Conservatism (Latin: arconservare, "to retard") is a political and social "philosophy" that promotes radical historical revisionism for 14 year old boys who know fuckall about politics, much less conservatism.

Have you ever suspected r/conservative is just liberal satire and most of the moderators are trying to make conservatives look insane?
