"Discrimination by private individuals is certainly not unconstitutional, whatever else it might be" TIM...Drop the facade...OKAY?? Discrimination is NOT illegal. You bloody well know that. Certain specifically defined forms of discrimination which disenfranchise citizenship rights on the basis of color, religion, and so forth--THEY are illegal. "But it isn't abuse of her unless he caused her to be in such a state." I am not up to scratch on when such negligence is considered criminal. I think it may involve the competence of the passerby. I will look up the Canadian laws on it, if you like. The important point for you to consider is that these issues have been debated for thousands of years and that there is a current consensus--country to country. You have every right to argue any position or viewpoint imaginable, of course. You are doing so.
