Babe and I heartily disagree about abortion, but she is right on the mark when it comes to characterizing some of your posts as at or approaching the racial content edge.

By the way, the Supreme Court's decision regarding the Ricci case (New Haven firefighters) was based on a disparate impact claim under Title VII. New Haven threw out the promotional exams because they feared a disparate impact lawsuit. Such a fear is recognized by the courts as legitimate. What the Supreme Court opined was that the basis for New Haven's fear did not reach the threshhold required to sanction its action.
