You knew this was coming.

Finally, this is recognized! As a tortured kid I can appreciate this (and I was not at all fat - more commonly recognized form of discrimination than ugliness - we get no respect!). ;-)

Anyway, I think the bottom line is anyone should be allowed to discriminate any way they wish. Yes, I said that, and meant it fully. Get rid of ALL “discrimination” laws.

I see it the same way. People don’t realize that the segregation of the south was going away on its own before the government started passing laws. I don’t mean the stuff that was already illegal, like lynching, etc., rather, the whites only and “coloreds only” stuff. And if it had died of natural causes it would have been much more empowering to the negroes that it affected.

When the government “did it for them”, contrary to the constitution, it created a dependent class - a class dependent on the government to solve their problems.

Is it “fair”. Probably not. But then, “fair” is a word that is almost missing from the Bible. The term is just way too subjective. Besides, I’d rather be poor and in control of my life than rich (or living off welfare) but be dependent on “the man” for all my income and opportunity.

Gee, that sounds a little like slavery, come to think of it.
