    They really do not need a law. Discrimination arbitrarily is unconstitutional. 22 states have express laws, but every incident where it is contested they are usually upheld anyway. You can not indiscriminately discriminate in this country.

    A law that arbitrarily discriminates is unconstitutional. A business owner discriminating against a specific group of people, is not. It might be illegal, depending on the laws governing the locality where that business is situated. But it's not unconstitutional.

    You very much can. I live in such a state.

    Yes. Let the market sort it out.

    There is a difference between legal discrimination and private discrimination. The constitution bans legal discrimination, but it does not, and should not, ban private discrimination.

    My point is that homosexuality is wrong because God said it was and there is nothing about it in the constitution legalizing it so therefore a homosexual so society in America cannot exist

    The liberal world seems to exterminate Christianity and I won't stand for that. They also seek to make whites a minority which is preposterous. I like the liberal mantra thing you came up with.

    That is your interpretation, most courts see it differently. The Civil Rights Act of 1964, Congress asserted its authority to legislate under several different parts of the United States Constitution, principally its power to regulate interstate commerce under Article One (section 8), its duty to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the laws under the Fourteenth Amendment and its duty to protect voting rights under the Fifteenth Amendment. This landmark piece of federal civil rights legislation in the United States that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, ended unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregation in schools, at the workplace and by facilities (AKA private businesses) that served the general public (known as "public accommodations").

    States do not need to enact legislation based on this federal act that uses the constitution to provide equal protection under the federal law.

    You are misinfromed. The states that have enacted such legislation are being redundant by creating state legislation that already exists at the federal level and has since 1964.

    Discrimination is a human flaw that should have been eliminated in the past 100 years with all the other advancements man has made. Sadly it hasn't been.

    Children? Discriminated against? Do tell.

    IMO, white christians run many businesses that hire illegals and other non whites to be able to run their business for more profit.
    They're undoing themselves with what they mostly complain about.

    No they are not. There are private and home schools. No one is forced to attend a public school. Just a school.

    Then if you are believer in that sort of thing, you should not upset your God by participating in such sinful activities.

    The constitution uses words like life, liberty (the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views.) and the pursuit of happiness. Funny that you cannot understand how these words encompass so much for so many.

    75% or so of americans claim they are christian. Do none of them run businesses? Do the hiring? Why do you think we need so many visa's given out every year. Where are all these illegals here working?
    Apply common sense.

    yeah you are. you are forced to attend homeschool, public school and private school which are all extremely biased against republicans.

    what sinful activities are you referring to. I think its funny that you still think Obama's a good president. and that you think public school is fair.

    What country do you live in? Have you considered private school or home school? Or maybe you could just move to an area that doesn't have such ridiculously ran halls of academia. My youngest just graduated from high school a few years ago and they prayed before football games, still say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning, and are allowed to wear t-shirts with NRA/historical & patriotic slogans depicting the heritage of this great nation and it's military.

    If I were you I would make sure my own child was not brainwashed with such blatant unAmerican BS!

    obviously you don't have any because most Christians are republicans and would be appalled at people hiring illegals.

    All of them. You own a Bible doncha? Look them up.

    Obviously, I said none of the above. Where do you get such nonsense?

    Just curious and no offense intended, but how old are you and what level of education do you have?

    well I trust my pastor, Chris Hodges, who says that we are near the end times which I also believe so pretty soon a lot of Christians will be discriminated against, but I don't mind that because that is when the church does best. also I do think, I have all day to think. everyone of those options is liberal. all I ask for is an unbiased education.

    My age is none of your business. and I have taken two years of paradoxes of war, one year of con law, two of juvenile justice, two of European history and the rest is irrelevant.
