Rand Paul openly disagreed with the private business provisions of the Civil Rights Act. The Civil Rights Act has become a staple in the past 45 years and is what this country stands for. However, the Rand Paul type of Libertarians believe they have a right to serve whoever they want to in "their" business. Racists have come out into the open because they believe that the New GOP will support them. Now posted for a business set to open this week is a sign: "NO NEGROS ALLOWED"

WEAU News Wisconsin’s Mary Rinzel is reporting that Abbotsford, Wi, businessman Mark Prior has posted a sign at the future site of his "gentlemen’s club" that says "No Negro’s Allowed."
Such an experiment, of course, misses the entire point of Civil Rights legislation, which is that those rights, by their nature, ought not to be subject to popular will, unpopular whim, or even the invisible hand of the market.
What is really sad is that Rand pPaul won his election. What does this tell you about the people that voted for him? Will Paul now try to turn back the clock and actually try to take provisions out of the Civil Rights Act? Is he really that stupid and does he really think he has a chance of succeeding?
These are all good reasons to continue to vote and support your local Democrats!
