(a) The rule of the common law giving a right of action to any person excluded from any hotel, public means of transportation or place of amusement is abrogated.

(b) No keeper of any hotel or public house, or carrier of passengers for hire, except railways, street, interurban and commercial, or conductors, drivers or employees of the carrier or keeper, shall be bound or under any obligation to entertain, carry or admit any person whom the keeper, carrier, conductor, driver or their employees shall, for any reason whatever, choose not to entertain, carry or admit to their house, hotel, vehicle, means of transportation or place of amusement. Nor shall any right exist in favor of the person so refused admission.

(c) The right of keepers of hotels and public houses, carriers of passengers and keepers of places of amusement and their employees to control the access and admission or exclusion of persons to or from their public houses, means of transportation and places of amusement is to be as complete as that of any private person over the private person's private house, vehicle, private theater or places of amusement for the private person's family.
