City Forced To Lower Police Testing Standards Because Not Enough Blacks Passed

[phenomena]

I didn't advocate the curtailing of liberty, I advocated the expansion of liberty. Private property, right to contract, and freedom of association are liberties, which YOU are opposed to. If *I* want to not do business with people on the basis of skin color, hair color, clothing color, or anything else, that's my own business, not the government's. If I don't want people in my own store, on my property, on the basis of any criteria which I so choose, that's my own business, not the government's.

Oh, and what are "my types"? People who believe in individual rights? Yeah... we're everywhere these days...

You would deny people that freedom, hence you wish to curtail the liberties of others. Any "guardian of the constitution" would be on my side here.

I never said anything about slavery or separate but equal, but of course you did, because that's what your conspiratorial world view tells you to believe- everyone is secretly trying to oppress blacks!!! (but it's okay to discriminate against whites openly, of course)

Quote from RCG Trader:

Didn't try for the Air Force. I am nearsighted. Not a big deal, just the way it is. Like I said, I had an array of options.

And yes, you are pretending. U advocate the curtailing of the liberty of others. Liberty is not liberty( unless he doesn't want you there), liberty is liberty, period. That is why the guardians of the Constitution have had to step in time and again against your types.

Soon you will be telling me that slavery is an individual right to those that can afford it. And that separate but equal was actually a good thing.

I never said the abolition of Jim Crow was a violation of individual rights, I said the exact opposite. You just made that up, another work of fiction from you... Nice strawman though. It's too bad that you probably actually had to be able to read to pass that pilot test...

Oh and btw Ron Paul has traction, he is coming in 1st in many of the polls, his problem is in the primaries, because he doesn't cater to republican special interest groups...

Good god, I could answer your questions if you'd put them all in your post instead of 20 edits with each post...

Yes, if greyhound wants to make separate water fountains on their own private premises, on whatever basis they so choose, that's their business, not the government's. If greyhound uses their own money to buy their own water fountains, and put them on their own property, and denote the rules for the use of their own water fountains on their own property, then you, I, nor anyone else should be able to denote what private entities do with their own water fountains. Public property, government water fountains, water fountains in schools, parks, etc should not be racially segregated, nor should any other public entity.

The post is now a part of the permanent record, you obviously said that anyone with a private business should be allowed to cater to whatever customers he chooses to. So, if you own a burger joint, and only want to serve Chinese, that is your right. Really?

Nah, I would deny u the right to twist the Constitution into saying you have the right to deny others the same, and you are not everywhere, as I said before in a post you managed to avoid, I have not met any types like you in real life. Average white Americans think you have screw loose and will not talk to you.

Yes, why should the government tell me who I do or do not have to serve, and on what basis? What in the constitution affords the government that power? If I decide that I only want patronage from Chinese people, or that I only wish to do business with Chinese people, what right should the government have to determine otherwise? Why should the government be able to make my own decisions for me?

When the government has taken the risk that I have taken to open the burger joint, and has to make my payroll obligations, and is responsible for my taxes, then, and only then, do they have a right to tell me how to run my own business...

Government doesn't need to be involved in the business decisions of private business owners. Yes, really.

Have u really thought this through? How many federally owned gas stations, grocery stores, hospitals, and insurance agents to you think there are? U advocate Apartheid if funded with private money??? Really???

As far as answering questions, feel free to ignore my edits, it sounds like another way to hide.

Well, thank you phenomena, I now know that every executive order written and every federal injunction granted was done so because people like u would eventually take us back to the dark ages. Fortunately, the Tea Party recognizes this and will consequentially curtail ur role. And Yes, the Tea Party will eventually gel into a salient organization.

LOL!! What kind of left wing sping job is this?? Not a very good one...

Apartheid? Gtfo. LOL!! "Apartheid" is an official policy of discrimination. That's what Affirmative Action and "diversity" policies are, which is nothing close to what I was talking about. In fact, it was the exact opposite. What I advocated was the abolition of discrimination in government (and yes, that means discrimination against white people in the form of AA and "diversity"(non white) quotas), and the freedom to discriminate on any basis whatsoever, or no basis whatsoever for private people and entities.

You are the one who wishes to continue racial discrimination in government, and who wishes to curtail the freedoms of private people to make decisions on any basis they so choose.

I never advocated any "apartheid". The freedom of association and the freedom to make one's own business decision is not what "apartheid" is. Good thing pilots don't need a great vocabulary I guess...

Let it go phenom. U are on record as supporting that a business owner, as long as it is private, has the right to deny service, without cause, and for any reason. Just let it go.

Second post, as my edits seem to distract you. Apartheid de jure and apartheid de facto.......

U are smarter than this phenom. I guess blacks should have not bothered with the sit ins at FW Woolworth's, huh?
