A Colorado heating and cooling company was caught refusing to do business in a Denver neighborhood because residents there are "colored people" and "they don't pay their bills," according to an undercover investigation by Fox affiliate KDVR.

IT’S primarily TRUE. However, “political correctness” will NOT allow the TRUTH to prevail.
LOL!
I'm becoming more sparing with my electrons.
I will say I enjoy you, Laz, and you, Catherine, a whole lot more!
A big hug to you. I hope you’re doing well.
Tough call, throughout the ages they've wanted to be referred to as coloreds, blacks, soul brothers, home boys, Afro-Americans, and "people of color"............
It's not surprising this guy is confused on how to address that segment of society........
Just curious, how was it you managed to bring our VETS into this conversation?
I guess as long as the right coloreds are hurt, it doesnt matter to some folks.
Where is it mandated by law that this heating and cooling company is obligated to go into any neighborhood they determine as an unsafe atmosphere for their business?
Actually, if I remember, it was a school ROTC group.
But if you say it’s a sissy event, I’ll defer to your judgment.

Close enough.
....and you could find this article, yet somehow you couldn't do a simple Google to find out you were dead nuts wrong about Lincoln and Liberia?
No matter. I believe you are a concern troll, and not a conservative at all.
I gave you the benefit of the doubt before. Not any more.
Of course we do, we're being accused of it in virtually every newspaper article being printed.
It means judging others primarily by their race. That is a liberal trait.
Another liberal trait is to accuse a business owner of racial discrimination for failing to offer their services to an area that is unlikely to fulfill their financial obligation to such business owner.
Since when has private business been forced to offer their services to any area they feel is not financially productive?
You're obviously not a private business owner........
Anti-Catholic-Priest?
The article specifically said he refused to served one particular race.
Definition of racism.
And I am absolutely a private business owner, from a business owning family.
I won't disagree with that assessment.
Yet, your reading comprehension and reasoning are quite flawed.
First of all, not 'he', but 'she'.
Secondly, one female employee making a series of statements, does not a company policy make.
Otherwise, no companies would exist, anywhere.
I imagine the company will promptly fire the employee and issue a statement asserting that this is in no way their official policy.
From the article: A hidden camera set up by the station recorded a female employee with Mile High Heating and Cooling in Westminster, Colo., saying the company will not service those living in Montbello. The workers allegedly said, "They call it Mount Ghetto."
Curious that you can find an article that specifies a military unit as ROTC, and not recruit .... but you simply cannot read and comprehend another article right in front of you.
Rather selective, if you ask me.
I am recovering pretty well, except I spend too much time sitting on my butt.
I'm blaming Free Republic :o)
Just like Catherine and I shall be married.
I pretty much marry everyone.
I guess I'm pretty Equal Opportunity.
It’s kind of addictive that way!
See, I have no problem with this. I know that, no many how many chicks Laz finds to marry, I’m still in the harem. So it’s good.

Well then, I'm proud of you! So what inner city black controlled community are you situated in and what is the service you are providing to them?
That's a fair question isn't it?
