Indeed - "black", "white" are mere (inacurate) descriptions of appearance
and do not make any reference to the fact there is but one human genome.

Yes. That sounds like descrimination.

A similar problem exists in the UK now. It seems that in the name of
tollerance you must be allowed to say just about anything you want
about anything, unless you are a Christian and then you are not
allowed to have or voice an opinion. On anything. Weird world.
