or all-black schools or all-white schools if people want.

So, you support segregation. So if tomorrow there's a school only for blacks, you're okay with it? SAy the army also has segregation and colleges and universities too and so we have 5 or 7 different streams -- for blacks, whites, white hispanics, black hispanics, East Asians, West Asians, Native Americans etc. etc.

We should be allowed to have Jewish schools or Christian schools or all-black schools or all-white schools if people want. And, no, the government shouldn't give them money (I don't think we need government support of schools at all).

Again you're mixign up two things -- religion and the idea of race. Sure, have a Christian, Muslim, Budhhist, Jewish school to teach the faith if you're willing to pay for it. Someone want sot attend a Jewish school? Convert. Then you say all-black schools. suppose a White guy wants to join? Can he convert? Can he use boot polish? Hah!

That's cutting off people on thigns they can't change.
Let's have a school where only people 5'8" and above are allowed. Dwarves are not allowed -- they're only good for wrestling and for being mocked at in amusement fairs. Discriminatory? H*** yeah! How can you discriminate against a person based on somethign they cannot change? A person who short can't change that fact about themselves. A person who's white can't make himself black. THey can try to be the best in their field even if it is dominated by people of a different type -- Murphy whatever in basketball or even the few white players in the NBA.

Yes, I'm okay with it. There have been dozens of all-black colleges for years now:

Nope, government should stay out of racial discrimination.

and colleges and universities too and so we have 5 or 7 different streams -- for blacks, whites, white hispanics, black hispanics, East Asians, West Asians, Native Americans etc. etc.

Fine, they can do whatever turns their crank.
