    I would make choices based on individual merit and not on class, race or ethnicity. I would discriminate in that way. In real life for instance when I set out to find a wife I discriminated against many otherwise estimable women on the basis of their looks, weight and intelligence.

    People generally won't pollute their back yard, but they will pollute yours.

    There is a difference between discriminating and being a bigot. What is a left wing extremist?

    Lol..that’s only my profession. A prejudice is prejudging
    Definition of bigot. : a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance.

    Also racists and other political extremists

    I 'd ban anyone for any reason or none at all, like the color of their hair or because they have children or drive a BMW. you need no reason to keep unwanted out of your business.

    read the 13th amendment lately? The government has no such powers. They only have the powers clearly defined by the constitution.

    I'd discriminate against phonies and whiners. Phonies like Black Lives Matter who flip out about a thug who is done in by a cop, but say nothing about the hundreds who are killed by the thugs in the hood. Whiners like the Jews who allowed themselves to be slaughtered like sheep but blame others for not rescuing them from the concentration camps.

    Yes, but only based on religion or any other opposing ideological affiliation.

    I would not hire a black professional under any circumstances, assuming that they were beneficiaries of affirmative action and so less qualified.

    My dad taught me that too,,,but it is all logic and not psychological. I will not treat someone who raped me the same way I would treat anyone . I will not treat a kkk member with respect. That’s reality
