I find it very interesting how people view this issue in totally different ways. I look at it in a more primitive manner. Human beings are not much different from other animals, except they are more intelligent. But, do you really believe that humans are that much different from other animals when it comes to their behavior based on experience? It seems as though some people think humans can just ignore their experiences and their prejudices, and change their behavior because society passes a law against discrimination? I don't think so. How long would the human race have survived if their behavior was constantly being controlled by these kinds of laws? You cannot regulate how people think. We could replace police officers with robots and program them to ignore skin color and other factors, but I don't think they would be very good at law enforcement.
