If this story is true, they broke a contract at worst.

This is a private club it is free to be as racist or non racist as it desires and you nor the government nor anyone else has any right to force them to do otherwise.

Their right to peaceably assemble and associate, and their private property rights are sacrosanct. You don’t have to agree or like it, but that’s reality.

There is no legal recourse against this club, other than if they did have a signed contract they broke the contract, thats it. The other party to the contract can sue for damages related to the contract but that’s it. There is, nor should there be criminal recourse against a private club for excercising their private property rights and their inalienable rights of free assembly and association.

Suggesting their should be is ignorant and totalitarian.

The thing about liberty is, is liberty applies to EVERYONE, not just those you deam worthy. I am amazed that I have to point this fact out to so many so called “conservatives”.

I guess it doesn't apply to children who want to swim if they are the wrong color.

Likewise if the children did not behave themselves and that was in the contract, they breached it too.

One FReeper posted he was at this event and said the kids were tearing the place up and the parents were doing nothing about it.

I've been to private swimming pools and when a kid decided not to play by the rules, harassing other people, running around the pool, etc. he and parents were told to leave.

I hope they had a safety clause. If not, they should write one in. Common sense unfortunately, is not so common.
