Well then by that standard I'm right too and there can be no wrong.
I'm saying that the way things are done today are better than what existed 60 years ago.

Better for you, not better for everyone.

Closer to the words and ideals of our Constitution, right?

Your two examples here probably won't go as viral compared to what the mayor in this story. Heck, if the mayor was a White man, it probably would go even more viral! Nevertheless, what a vile statement for her to say and this is coming from someone who has said many vile things!

Wrong. I think people better understood and followed the constitution from 1787 till about the 1960s, than people do today.

I watched her being interviewed yesterday she's got her wig screwed on a bit too tight.

Later, she's interviewed by a news reporter:

Good Lord, I thought the author was referring to Maryvale, AZ. It's too late there. That's the future of the Southwest in a nutshell.

And I don't think it should ever been made official policy to discriminate against someone based on race. No one of any race should be prohibited from moving to a certain city or town.

And you didn't answer why more Blacks didn't go to Marysville. You only answered why Whites went there.

I think if a certain city, town or community wants to make it the policy they should be able to.

It wouldn't be needed if there wasn't open borders, people who impose themselves on others and are bad neighbors, classmates and coworkers. People should go where they are wanted or at least strive to be acceptable where they want to go.

I'm thinking of moving to Marysville just to make Jean Cramer mad. Not really, but well, I say this. I'm going to do whatever I want. If I want to be there, and I have the money to there, no one can stop me except through illegal means. And I'm glad it's this way. Anyone who has a problem with it, too bad.
