Shockingly, Americans not big on government enforced neighborhood diversity

It already was, on Thursday, another SCOTUS blockbuster of social engineering replacing Constitutional Jurisprudence.

Docket 13-1371: Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs v. The Inclusive Community Project, Inc.

Government is no longer required to prove Intent in housing discrimination cases. "Unconscious prejudices" (the actual phase they used) is now the measuring stick.

Soon we will hear: We cannot prove that you meant to discriminate, and may you didn't even know that you meant to discriminate, but since the rest of that neighborhood doesn't have the "right" mix, possibly because of the discrimination of others, well, we will go ahed and punish you anyway. Woo-hoo!"

Boy, won't it be fun when government no longer needs to prove intent in criminal law? (Manslaughter now equals 1st degree murder in all cases!) And when "unconscious prejudice" is used to let even more minority rapists and murderers go?

also expect to see multiple family, and i use that term loosely, dwellings in areas zoned for single family housing

"buy houses in their neighborhoods"

You know, that's a very good idea. And one a Pubbie pol with guts could make a lot of political hay with. But there are no Pubbie pols who will ask that question.
