I think that laws to protect minorities like the public accommodations law of Colorado could have been designed  with less unnecessary encroachment on the rights of the other side by assigning to the executive branch the authority to apply those anti discrimination laws contingent on some level of hardship that affect the minority in question from the specific discrimination in question. For example, applying this process when the executive authority receives a complaint about one grocery shop refuses to serve one minority group means measuring things like the availability of other grocery shops that accept serving that minority. If the executive authority finds a hardship it then would apply the anti discrimination law for that minority on every grocery store at least for some period until testing the environment again. This actually can be used for any discrimination and using the word "minority" here was unnecessary. 
Of course there should be a path for suing the executive branch on this issue if it miss carry this duty.
