| Message | Public/government institutions/amenities cannot be segregated as everybody, regardless of race, sex, sexual preference, age, or anything else, pays for their upkeep just like everybody else. The only sensible segregation in public amenities is the separation between men's and women's restrooms/changing rooms. As for marriage, I believe that marriage is a personal/religious matter and not subject to political intrusions. The same could be applied to my views on sex. |
| Date | 04:51:27, April 04, 2010 CET | From |  Royal Crown Alliance (IA) | To | Debating the Racial Propriety Act |
| Message | Separate does not mean unequal, and racial minorities still have voting rights, which means that they can access government and change the laws if they don't like them or if they believe their facilities are worse than another racial group's. |
