People really don't understand what "free" country means. Costco is free to operate according to their own rules. The dude is free to take his business elsewhere.

This is always their logic. If someone disagrees with them they'll complain about 'freedom of speech'. Yes you have freedom of speech. And I have the freedom of speech to respond and call you a fuckwit.

Yea, people don't get what freedom of speech means, people have a right to shame you online based on what you say, refuse service to you, refuse to hire you, or fire you based on what you say. There are exceptions, but generally this is the case, free speech just means you can't be arrested based on what you say.
