WHY DO CONSERVATIVES WANT EQUAL ACCESS TO END

Today, Sunday,July Twenty-First, 2013, our Church's new wheelchair ramp was up and running, so to speak. This means that our Church can now more than ever be a place that welcomes all people, which is our goal. So, why, as a country, are there still many who do not want State Houses and City Halls to be the same? Many private businesses have figured out that it is simply bad for business to not accommodate ALL potential clients, so why have Conservatives not figured out that it is bad for Stare and City business to do the same? Why did they bring the suit against The Americans With Disabilities Act in the first place, and why did The Supreme Court rule in their favor? I understand the idea of Personal Liberty and States' Rights, but allowing States and Cities to not make their buildings accessible to People With Disabilities infringes on their Personal Liberty since they either cannot enter such buildings at all or must rely on others to help them do so, and States' Rights must yield to the right of people to "Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness", which People With Disabilities cannot achieve without equal access. So, do Conservatives just not care if People With Disabilities have access to "Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness"? Do they just not care if People with Disabilities die trying to enter buildings that no longer accommodate their needs? And if so, how can Conservatives call themselves "Pro Life"?
