You have exhibited total confusion of the facets of this issue. You could not identify even what people objected to (and yet you declared them wrong).

In my reply you have chosen to see a typo. Which proves only that you are shallow by choice and prefer to remain such. If finding a typo makes you feel superior --- be my guest.

From my vantage point, you are the one who refuses to see the light.

Is the College Republican club is business?

Is the College Republican club required to collect sales taxes while fundraising?

Is the College Republican club allowed to engage in controversial free speech using "performance art"?

Is the College Republican club allowed to charge $100 for a chocolate bar while fundraising or will the College Republican club be charged with price gouging like any other business?

It's obvious you were never a member of the College Republican club, and you have no idea about the fundraising and political performance art.

As other posters have already suggested, you insist in being obtuse, trying to fight a "strawman."

Everybody agrees that it is illegal for a business to have different prices for customers of various colors, but that's not what happened here.

This was an act of successful political speech that raised awareness about the injustices of affirmative action in business contracts, jobs, and college admissions.

The College Republicans had more publicity than expected, and their goal to call attention to this unfair practice succeeded tremendously, extending well beyond the local college campus.
