Tenants and employees may discriminate as much as they like "in housing and employment."

Oh? Apartment managers who engage in racial discrimination against tenants are breaking the law.

That's not what was said. He said tenants are free to engage in discrimination, which is undeniably true. I am free to not rent from anyone I choose.

If you refuse to rent an apartment from any black owner, have you broken the law?

If you refuse to work for any Asian employer, have you broken the law?

"Racial discrimination in housing and employment" is in fact not "illegal."

For some of us.

Do you support the enactment of our current anti-discrimination laws? Do you support in particular the enactment of the federal laws selectively targeting a portion of the discrimination in "housing and employment"?

And this seems to sit perfectly well with you.

And yet, you get your undies in a wad because someone may not "like" the boy scouts. Sheesh!
