I was paraphrasing, but you said just that in more detailed words:

They live in their own mind.

Sorry, but you behave like all the rest of the left.
And you know that how, exactly? Have you ever met me, and do you know my actual political affiliation? I haven't even visited the sites/sources you claim we all live by, so that's one strike against your stereotyping right there.

You see, everyone here is screaming, Right wing hate..
Who here was speculating the bar owner is a Republican? The OP's reference to right-wingers was only regarding the "racism doesn't exist" belief some of them push... the only other political BS I've read here has been from "nononsenseguy," who's spewing a bunch of crap about the left. I don't know or care how the bar owner votes, and it wouldn't be funny at all to find out he's a Democrat - personally I don't care because I'm not a Democrat OR Republican, but it also wouldn't change the fact that he's obviously got some issues.

You can't tell the difference, hence the reason why discriminating isn't cool. Plus there are "good and bad" people in EVERY group, so again that is why you should treat all people as equals - until they give you a reason to believe they're undesirable, based on their behavior as opposed to race/appearance/etc. Is that so hard?

When certain segments of the black community, quit behaving badly, it will benefit the rest of you, because that is where the real problem lies. Sweep your own back porch first, then you can come play with us! It is called zero tolerance!
Why should all black (or whatever group of) people be punished for something OTHER black people have done? That's not called zero tolerance, it's called unfairly judging and racially profiling.

What does your race have to do with whether or not you want to go to a bar?

We do things different in Texas.

A Texas honkytonk, like the Broken Spoke, would welcome the chance to show a good time to any American.

I didn't click the link. Where these people trying to get into the bar a group of thuggish looking hip hoppers?

The same "right" applies to any private business.....to reject people they deem trouble makers from entering their place of business.
