I pretty much agree with your interpretation of his stance in the interview, Jerry, and that is what I've been saying I felt his point was. However, I still think that, while not necessarily a racist, he is very very wrong. Do you feel that businesses should be allowed to not hire someone based on race, creed, color or religion? That is what he is arguing for. Do you agree? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:319402 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
