These laws don't give you the right to say "We don't serve your kind here." at a public accommodation. That would be a violation of the law. You are not exempt from complying with laws where the government has a compelling interest.
What is somewhat amusing is that when the Federal law that provides the same protection as these State laws was passed under Clinton, it was to allow the use of ceremonial drugs in Native American rituals and the Amish to avoid some building codes.

Not exactly separation of church and state, but a recognition that they are not one and the same, and that following the Law (Caesar) is not automatically a sin.

Refusing service at a place of public accommodation is not, nor has ever been, covered by these laws.

Want to prevent someone from trying to commit suicide?
Do things that increase the chances of survival/failure. It is the one thing we are afraid of when trying to commit suicide, that we might survive the attempt. It is the one thing that stopped me. What if I survive this?
The video camera might help with that, by alerting ground controllers that something is wrong and taking over the plane remotely, unlocking the door, whatever.

Probably because they don't want to pay licensing for the sticker that says "POSIX Inside"
The stuff I use is slightly frosted if it is not stuck to something directly, and there is enough of an air gap to keep it frosted.
Scotch "Invisible" tape, ironically.
I use regular cellophane tape. It is opaque enough to destroy the image, clear enough not to be exactly sure why. Looks like a heavy smudge of grease/oil, like you touched it while eating fries or something.
