Quote:Do you think the 13th Amendment outlawing slavery was a good idea, or would you leave that up to the states, too?  

 

We shouldn't have needed it, but man being man it was necessary. And then the Federal Government, along with the several states, turned right around and created a segregated society where minorities were disenfranchised; free but powerless. Then we had the Civil Rights Movement and that evolved from a civil justice movement into a cash cow. Just like the all those other charitable organizations (the March of Dimes, AHA, ALA, etc.) they'll never declare victory and go home so long as there's money to be made buying politicians and suing deep pockets. Now the bad guys are the ones who get to over rule every American's inherent right to Freedom of Association in the name of "anti-discrimination" law. But don't worry, they know better what you should do with your life, property, business, diet, mode of transportation, retirement savings, healthcare, ad nauseum than you do.
