They affirmed non discrimination. They did not strike down anything. They affirmed that colleges can't disciminate Based on race. They ended one of the more blatant forms of discrimination.

Giving preferential treatment for position, to a singular race or group is exactly what we're trying to improve. By continuing to allow such things as Affirmative Action, we perpetuate the age-old problem of raising one class above others. Neither justice or equality served in allowing it to remain.

We, as a Country should be beyond racisum at this point, the only reason it still exists is because we keep it alive by always talking about it, conversation doesn't always fix these types of problems. We have the laws in place, enforce them!

I am a former resident of Columbia. I now live near Tulsa. Tulsa has set a curfew downtown for minors. It's sad that government has to assume the responsibilities of absent or clueless parents!

They should explore curfews, but I can guess that Columbia will hire outside consultants for $200,000, create a committee to design signage (lbtgq++ approved, of course). Then figure out without real consequences, curfews just scatter the cockroaches to somewhere else in Columbia.

If you don't have any form of employment you should be subject to a curfew.

Property tax should only be paid once when the property is transfer/sold. We should not be punished every year for 'things' that do not produce income to pay those taxes.

Taxed on absolutely everything. Once we buy something, we pay our taxes on it. Yet with "personal property " and having to pay this bogus tax every year- is it really ever ours? No! Because government can come take it. They house is already paid off!! Get out!!
