A collection of idiots trying to act like they own the Equality High Road. The reality is these folks are nothing more than a bunch of washed-up has-beens clinging to an era of increasing irrelevance. It appears that the Supreme Court is poised to finally toss them all into the dust bin of history where they belong. (And will someone please tell Joe Biden that pandering loses its value when one is hopelessly out of place??)

I know. Civil Rights is soooo 1960s. Why should blacks have voting protections written into the law anyway? We all know racism in America is dead. No, wait...

Yeah, look at those idiots who think that people of many different skin colors are equal.

I've often wondered why conservatives always range from ambivalent to hostile on the issue of Civil Rights.

They have no respect for the Civil Rights leaders of the 60s at all--or their legacy, or what they achieved. One of the reasons I consider myself a liberal is because I actually do believe that whites and blacks should be treated equally under the law, and that legislation is necessary to ensure that this is the case. It's a shame something as simple as that isn't a bipartisan issue.

Its been 48 years since the Civil Rights Act was passed. I think you can rest easy that equality "under the law" has been taken care of.

Not getting what this has to do with the thread topic.

Religious right Christians, you mean? i don't hate, but it's safe to say I'm not a fan. Jesus never liked Pharisees either though.

Funny people actually believe that progressives are on anyone's side...... but their own.
