Fine, change the numbers to 67% or 76% white supremacists, or whatever your supermajority level is. I wouldn't be surprised if there were some places in the Deep South of the past that were 90% white supremacists and 10% black. You are evading the question: What then?
In case you weren't aware, the L.P. has a plank which calls for the dismantling of our civil rights laws, essentially making it legal to say "We don't serve those of race X here." And here you are now whining about Jim Crow laws. Do you favor the repeal of civil rights legislation? Being conservative means we are big on justice, and prejudice is an injustice.

Why should I answer your questions if you refuse to answer mine? By the way, nice use of a straw man argument: I didn't say anything about the Libertarian party platform, yet you drag it into this thread and demand my response to it.

CJ, as usual you are misrepresenting the position of the LP. Civil rights laws prohibiting government discrimination are fine - laws preventing the free exercise of the right of association between individuals are not. Jim Crow laws are clearly a case of government being used to discriminate against blacks.
Try telling the truth for a change.
