Most of these laws are a little confusing to me (and I'm a lawyer).

I am not a lawyer myself but from what i have red, the way these laws have been interpreted in the past by at least some states that language is as follows:

I restaurant that served only workers at a company or members of a private club would not be covered under these BF'ing laws.

Let me know if you get a chance to try it at home. I wonder if it is a javascript the site has running that might be setting off the firewall? It can be completely harmless, just o make the site do something like a drop-down menu, display info during mouse-over, etc - but it could set off high-level firewalls.
If so, perhaps I should write to the site owner to let them know, so they won't lose potential visitors?
