Was Brown Vs. Board Unconstitutional?

[OswaldTheOsprey]

Was this when sociologists etc. used the Black and White dolls and a heaping helping of shady social science? The orthodox (read liberal) views on prejudice have been thoroughly debunked.

So is this about race or is it about the constitution?

Both.

Does the constitution not provide the same rights to all citizens?

I suppose, since it is not clearly defined, we all have the right to discriminate against whatever we can find to discriminate against.

In that case, the constitution is void because nobody's rights are safe--not even the states', or federal.

An individual, IMHO, has a right to like or dislike anyone and anything they like which is probably discriminating in some sense. As with anything, there are limits-no one has the right to do harm to another just because of their dislike. Mere common sense.

So you don't believe people should have the right to discriminate?

How could I tell anybody what they cannot do?

I think you missed my point, that racist or white supremacist people tend to think the constitution should only protect white people--which is ultimately what racial discrimination in America tries to achieve.

As far as a right to discriminate, sure.  It's your right.  But it's--not even a right.  If you can define it as a right, it can be taken away. Nobody can take away your right to hate people.  The last freedom we will ever have will be freedom of thought, and hatred is the strongest demonstration of that.  So I think all this discrimination is just an out lash of societal adolescence.  I hope it passes soon, but it seems to me that some people enjoy the conflicts.  They must, or we would have done away with it already.

In due time, just like religion, we will wise up to it and so I am not too worried about it.  I just hate to see it in my life time.
Things could be worse though, and I am thankful for how we handle ourselves with regards to religion and race--and the discrimination of both.
