[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 937891, member: 17969"] What if by the same margin (51%) a law was passed in California that said that only whites could have a job? Would that be the new law without question? Would that be fair because the majority of people voted to pass it? Would that law be the right thing to do to society at large? Of course not, thats why we have courts to interpret laws and not voters. Voters DONT interpret laws, judges do. Dont look for this going to the supreme court either, they will not take this case. All the talking heads who supported this law will say they will appeal to the US Supreme court, but the high court will reject the case. Lets put it another way, hispanics, who are the dominant race in california now, decide to pass a law with 51% preventing white people from owning homes. Because they recieved a 51% majority, should that "new" law be challenged for interpretation by a court? Or should white people just accept the law and either rent or move out of state? Get serious folks. Peace TOS. [/QUOTE]
