BTW, and what would a Jew be supposed to do? He cannot shop on a Saturday.
This is an issue, sure. If there aren't provisions of some sort made then, yes, that is discriminatory (at least to the observant). When there was a ban on Sunday trading here there were exemptions for small shops, and there tended (and tends) to be particularly high concentrations of those in Orthodox Jewish neighbourhoods. Of course during most of the time covered (the ban wasn't under threat until the 1980s and wasn't repealed until the early 1990s) people - irrespective of ethnic or religious background - were
much less likely to do routine shopping in a supermarket than they are now. And not just because there were more independent shops! It's amusing to see people acting as though having their groceries delivered direct to their door is the most revolutionary thing
ever, when their grandparents would often have done the same thing.
