With all due respect, they aren't all that similar however.
I believe in absolute freedom absolutely. I am more than willing to tolerate racism in the private sector, assuming that racism is not endorsed publically. By which I mean, lets say a privately-owned Golf Club decides it does not wish to allow anyone with white fingernails to join. I believe this is their perogative, so long as the prejudice is passive i.e. they are simply refusing admittance to such individuals and not seeking them out and setting fire to their front yards.
Institutionalized racism however, such as laws, should be race neutral. I don't believe the gun laws of old were racist. Alright, cheap pistolas were illegal to sell. The argument goes, Well, The Blacks Were The Poorest So Thats An Example Of Whitey Trying To Keep Them Unarmed! Not so. Poverty is an equal oppourtunity lender, and (debatable) statistics have shown that more whites than blacks were adversely affected by that law. In number only, however, not by percentile, it should be noted.
I'm afraid I stand by Blanco on this one Vibe
