Dear Mr. Bone, You seem very heated to defend Emile. Do you realize that his posts mirror those of Mein Kampf and the early writings of Hitler? Blacks have been discriminated against, partially as a vestige of slavery. The US Supreme Court has stated that as a result of that unique treatment in our history, laws that affirmatively attempt to eliminate these last vestigates of slavery are ok. This the US Supreme Court and not my personal opinion. Personally, I feel that we should see people as they are and not as members of a group. I don't think that a religion or racial affiliation should give one more benefits or buy one discrimination. I think we should spend money to eliminate vast urban underemployment. The fact that minorities will benefit is true but I think we bring up our entire nation if we help those who are least able to help themselves. As for your questions about Olympics, I don't know much about any of them but I don't believe there are Olympics that the US funds for Jews, Christians, Muslims, gays or straights. There are private groups, I believe, that hold these things if they choose. You go to a church and you have olympics competition. It doesn't mean that you have to allow people from the church down the street into your games. There is a difference. Special olympics, with which you may be very familiar, is a wonderful private charitable foundation. Do you object to them? Emile spews hatred constantly and sees everything in a very paranoid way. Cheers, RRUFFF
