In Buckyland, if you marry a Eskimo, you become a Eskimo.
i think they prefer Canuck Injuns, Eskimo is offensive.

believing in individual property rights equals racist.
Private businesses are now public accommodations?public accommodation ?
Private businesses are now public accommodations?
no, maintaining that a supposedly public accommodation be allowed to blanket discriminate against people of color is racist, and that is exactly what randy pawl defends.
title II, mother fucker. are you against title II as well?
how is a hotel with a huge sign advertising its prices to drivers on the highway private? that falls under the umbrella of public accommodation.
private refers to something like a country club.
are you really that dumb, or are you just playing dumb? which is it?
This is what you fail to realize. Racism still exists, you can not legislate against stupid.
What happens when you force someone to serve me when they don't want to is I get spit in my food without my knowledge. Why on earth would anyone want to be where they are not welcome?
I'd rather know up front who wants my business or not and not go where I'm not wanted. I respect your right to be an ignorant racist as long as it doesn't affect me.
I can go to a restaurant that wants my business and avoid those that don't. You made it impossible for me to know who and where to avoid.
Without anti-discrimination laws Chick-fila might have banned gays. If they had done that they would not be in business today for obvious reasons. They either would have changed their policy to keep business or they would have been boycotted into bankruptsy. I think that's much more effective than making laws to control behavior.
People segregate themselves by choice, you can't legislate that away. If you don't understand why, may I recommend any freshman level sociology book?
Private refers to private ownership, public refers to public ownership. It really is that simple.
I see the black student association was doing a membership drive when I attended University, posters and people handing out pamphlets. Guess who couldn't join? Perhaps the Gay Softball association should be forced to accept heteros? I guess there must not be freedom of association in the USA eh? The civil rights act was made BY GOVERNMENT to undermine and nullify GOVERNMENT JIM CROW LAWS.how is a hotel with a huge sign advertising its prices to drivers on the highway private? that falls under the umbrella of public accommodation.

Public restrooms were run by government back then, as were the drinking fountains, who do you think made the rules that blacks had to use separate facilities? Ole racist Joe down the road?
It's their right to be racist, but most likely any business that relies on the public patronage to make a profit and tried to discriminate would go belly up quite quickly. After a short time you have racists who will gladly do business with anyone. After all, there are 5 things that drives men to do what is necessary.. M-o-n-e-y.
but we did, and it worked.*
are you just playing dumb too?
people need to put fuel in their cars. people need a place to rest their heads. people need a place to grab a bite to eat, and should not have to expect that the food be spat upon just because of the color of their skin.
but it did affect many. why do you think the green book for negro travelers even existed?
i'm sure black people just wanted to know which places to avoid rather than not be discriminated against for the sin of being born a certain color, eh?
then you are ignoring history.
many businesses did just fine with "no negroes welcome" signs on the door. boycotts did not end that, the civil rights act did.
your retarded arguments aside, you still never answered the question. do you oppose title II of the civil rights act?
title II is for government owned isn't it? That should go without saying.
You act like the government saved us from racism when it was the efforts of people like Rosa Parks and Dr. King that changed the awareness of the country. Fuck you for taking their credit and giving it to the government. The same government that made slavery legal and Jim Crow laws the law of the land.
I can claim (won't, but can) that without anti-discrimination laws we would be way ahead in our evolution against discrimination. The country would be less racist without race baiting laws. Telling somebody they CAN'T do something makes them want to do it that much more. Did making pot illegal keep you from smoking it?
first of all, there were plenty of businesses that discriminated and denied service. they did just fine.
You have any evidence of this? Prove this specious claim please.
Damn Buck, you are still stuck in past aren't you? We used think you were less intelligent if you were born in Poland too. The majority of people now know this isn't true and we didn't even need legislation to get there.
Believe it or not, there are still people who think like this. I've seen it on this forum where people born in a certain region are given characteristics just because they were born on this plot of land instead of that plot of land. That's just stupid isn't it. What laws can we pass to end this stupidity?
this proves definitively that many businesses disallowed blacks or discriminated for them but stayed open for business with no problems. this book would not have existed otherwise.

without having examined the issue in depth, i can still suggest laws mandating higher achievement for those poor, mentally handicapped southerners. better math skills, reading "compensation", etc.
it's not my fault the empirical evidence aligns so nicely with the nation's preconceived notions, see my sig.
