State Sues: Fed Rule against Felon Hiring Ban Endangers Public (Texas)

Judicial Watch ^ | November 7, 2013

The disparate impact theory has to go. Rational policies that have a non-discriminatory purpose should not be illegal.

Thank God for US Court Judge, Roger Titus.

[jazusamo]

This is way over the top even for the 0bama/EEOC/DOJ cabal.

[jazusamo]

Absolutely, Judge Titus told it like it is.

How racist of the Feds, “tarring” all minorities as criminals !

[Red Badger]

At least one state has gone to court to fight the Obama administration’s preposterous new regulation limiting employers’ rights to ban hiring felons because it discriminates against minorities.

That tacitly admits that they are the ones committing most of the felonies.....

[CivilWarBrewing]

Yep. If you or I said that, WHAT WOULD THEY CALL US?

[Red Badger]

U.S. District Court Judge Roger Titus lambasted the administration’s expert data, writing that it was “laughable”; “based on unreliable data”; “rife with analytical error”; containing “a plethora of errors and analytical fallacies” and a “mind-boggling number of errors”; “completely unreliable”; “so full of material flaws that any evidence of disparate impact derived from an analysis of its contents must necessarily be disregarded”; “distorted”; “both over and under inclusive”; “cherry-picked”; “worthless”; and “an egregious example of scientific dishonesty.”

But did he like it?...............

Rape laws have a disparate impact against rapists.

Yeah, that’s leftard ‘logic’ for ya.

I nominate him for the next SCOTUS judge.

So I want to open store. I am liable for any violence my employee may inflict on a customer or other employee, I will take a loss if my employee steals cash or inventory, yet the gov’t is telling me I can’t refuse to hire convicted felons because too many of them are minorities?

Why would anyone want to start a business in this country anymore?

[TigersEye]

LOL

He gave it a 3. Doesn't rhyme and it's hard to dance to.

[basil]

You do—and I’ll Second you!

Try applying for liability insurance. You get the high-risk, or no insurance at all, if you hire felons.

You just hit the nail on the head.

Obama and his fellow travelers don't want any businesses in this country other than the big ones that drink from the government trough, since they are controllable. Small business can't be controlled and, in fact, liberates its owners if they are successful. THEY control their life, THEY decide what to sell and to whom, THEY decide who to hire and fire, and THEY decide which pols act in THEIR best interest.

We can't have any of that freedom stuff in the USSA - it'll enable the terrorist Tea Party types!
