Vanishing vestige of civil rights

Does anyone remember what the civil rights movement was about? Not today. Four decades later, it is "controversial" if not "racist" to recall that the civil rights movement was about equal opportunity. People were to be hired on the basis of merit and ability alone

Having lost equal protection of law, what will whites lose next?

Their country.

My admiration for Dr. Roberts grows with every column. He's both incisive and courageous.

Why did the white majority allow themselves to be stripped of the equal protection clause of the Constitution? Why do whites remain loyal to the political parties that took away their rights?

Excellent questions!

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

? I'm not sure if these stats are good. I work at one of the agencies on the list, and the number of blacks we have is proportional to the population. yet in the article it's like were over it by a factor of 3. ?? So for the record, although I agree that reverse discrimination is terrible thing and it does happen in the gov't, I'm not sure if these precise numbers are solid.

Well it won't be the right to question or say anything negative about anyone who is not white, male, straight and Christian, because that right is already lost. Right, John Rocker?

are similiar to those the native americans felt as they watched "there"country taken
away from them...thru treaties and legalise...
