But my feelings are with the person who says 'this is my system, I will say who will use it'. Can I say "I won't let colored people into my house?" If this is legal, then I see no reason to extend this analogy to my BBS or whatever. If that is illegal... I'm scared. ObPC: Please do not infer that I dislike blacks. *sigh*.
