Rand Paul Wants To Abolish The Americans With Disabilities Act!

[Lief 🗽]

Are you saying that you believe that tens of millions of people having equal rights, the right to vote, the right to live their lives without facing institutionalized, state-supported discrimination and harassment, all of that liberty, is not worth the liberty that some (and, until you give us concrete examples, hypothetical) white business owners had to surrender?

God, if this thread is an indication of what's to come for the next six months...

I will say that freedom is subjective, though. Who's to say someone's legal freedom to discriminate against a disabled person is more valuable than that disabled person's right to live in a society where being discriminated against is legally not tolerated?

There is no right to not be discriminated against.

Racism is bad. Violating individual freedom is just as bad.

You've still not given us a SINGLE CONCRETE EXAMPLE of an individual's freedom that the Civil Rights Act violated.

Any private business that has ever been sued by the EEOC has had it's rights violated.

Here's a list.

So in all those cases you believe that the liberty of the business owner to discriminate against minorities is more important than the liberty of the people suing to have equal access and treatment?
