This is whats wrong with America - a political faction in America which still thinks that the very same government which treated minorities like dogs before the Civil Rights Movement are the very same ones to rely on for moral guidance. We the people made the changes through civil disobedience, your big government, which created this mess, came along after the fact.

Ask the 175 Pakistani children killed by drones from the Obama administration if they are being treated like dogs.

Nope your misdirection won't work. Read up on the history of the Dixiecrats and Southern Strategy.

Oh here we go again, if we are not having a love fest for Obama then they are racist. Obama is racist. He and the democrats have you convinced that you are incapable of making it without them.

Wrong again. Chris Christie is a conservative, hardly an Obama fan, but is not a racist. Infact he has has called out the racists in his party several times. Papa Ron and sonny boy Rand Paul on the other hand..

Freedom to discriminate.....
Mother Nature at work.


Government pushed the idea with Progressive Woodrow Wilson. Government caused blacks to be treated like dogs and encouraged it for decades.
Then you take freedom away from business owners that had a right to do business with who they please, to just appease a race of people.


All it did was cause a lot of resentment on both sides of the issue. Unintended consequences.

Everyone should have a right to associate and service who they wish, not who you or government decides for you.

It's odd that you are concerned about racists having to associate and service with black people in public.

Oh you mean like how churches at one point used to use the bible to justify slavery, racism and stop divorce?

You seriously think Chris Christie is a Constitutional Conservative?

Rand called out the racist in both parties at CPAC. I guess you give him a pass now? LOL!
