Racial discrimination in housing and employment is illegal.

This is the point I was trying to make. The wolves have eaten the sheep, no matter what the Constitution says about eating sheep.
And I don't think they'll quit. Next, they'll make it illegal for White men to refuse to marry Black women. Then, it will be agains the law for White men to refuse to marry Black MEN!! As long as they control the media, they can force anything on us. They can even get the Constitution itself repealed if they want to!
That is, as long as they are more powerful than we are. It's all up to US.

Your reply to Roscoe's nonsense hits the mark - and I like the way you put it. The BoR is pretty clear - its not ambiguous. The 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 9th and 10th amendments have been violated on a daily basis for years, and all because of an apathetic public who are at the mercy of an out of control legal system where lawyers, many of which have no legitimate marketable skill, use chicanery and lies to convince the masses that they serve a purpose that is good for individuals, while only enriching and impowering themselves and their friends.
You're seconding that?
That's the sort of racist rhetoric David Duke uses. Are you agreeing with it?
I just love his moral backbone.
Is that immoral?
You can't & won't, - as usual.
Not that part, just to equate defending the scouts right to practice morality in excluding sexual deviants to defending Larry Flynt's right to print his material.
What an "interesting" position to take.
big·ot
n.
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
[French, from Old French.]
Word History: Bigots may have more in common with God than one might think. Legend has it that Rollo, the first duke of Normandy, refused to kiss the foot of the French king Charles III, uttering the phrase bi got, his borrowing of the assumed Old English equivalent of our expression by God. Although this story is almost surely apocryphal, it is true that bigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym, was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood. From the 15th century on Old French bigot meant “an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.” Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the sense “a superstitious hypocrite.”
A person who regards his own faith and views in matters of religion as unquestionably right, and any belief or opinion opposed to or differing from them as unreasonable or wicked. In an extended sense, a person who is intolerant of opinions which conflict with his own, as in politics or morals; one obstinately and blindly devoted to his own church, party, belief, or opinion.
-- You're late to the party '79. -- It is already estabished that it takes more backbone to fight for a slimeballs rights that to cheer for the king.
Glad you feel that way about our boyscouts. Is this a common Libertarian opinion you hold?
What if 51% of the people determine that the type of society they want to live in includes a landlord being forced to rent to certain individuals, or an employer being forced to hire certain people against his will, or one that restricts your right to practice your religion? Don't these types of laws constitute the very principals you advocate -- people determining what kind of society they want to live in?
