Racist crap at a Cincinnati building

Even today, America is still fighting against unabated bigotry. The fight against the Far Right isn't just on purely economic grounds. It's also a fight against discrimination.

Recently, the owner of a Cincinnati apartment building posted a "White Only" sign at the building's swimming pool. I have no doubt whatsoever that her intent was racist, because what else could the sign possibly mean? The Ohio Civil Rights Commission agreed that it was racist, and found that she violated a statewide anti-discrimination law. Now the building owner is demanding that the commission reconsider.

This story is about not only bigotry but also the misuse of power embodied by somebody thinking they can get away with something just because. The building is in effect a business, and it violated individual rights by posting the sign. The rights of the people are the glue that holds our system together. But there's no right for any person or business to discriminate in violation of the law.
