Discrimination by any other name would smell as despotic.

We are moving away from equality to something else.

It is actionable, yes?

This pisses me off. It should be free for all vendors or none.
I do not live in that area but if I did I would avoid that market.

"form a socially distance queue to enter"

Too Frog.

Queue was coined during the French Revolution. Queues to the guillotine? Or to watch the events at that time?

The event will be limited to 16 vendors and only 200 people will be allowed in the parking lot at a time. Face masks are required for both shoppers and vendors. If the event is at capacity, HBG Flea said it may ask people to wait in a socially-distant line to enter.

If you include their racist preferences, it sounds like it should be a smashing success.

Doesn’t this violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964? Charging different rates based on race?

Why not just self-identify as black or hispanic? Seriously.

I hope mostly peaceful looters go in and trash and steal the whole thing.

I have done shows before and have had to pay for space this is not right.

When people get used to preferential treatment,
equal treatment seems like discrimination.

I love your Greek proverb but that is almost tagline-worthy!
