A Cincinnati landlord who claimed a black girl's hair products clouded an apartment complex's swimming pool discriminated against the child by posting a poolside "White Only" sign, an Ohio civil rights panel said Thursday in upholding a previous finding.
The Ohio Civil Rights Commission voted 4-0 against reconsidering its finding from last fall. There was no discussion

How about a "no hair product" sign. I've seen rivers get cloudy from certain hair stuff it can get messy.

Here we are in the year 2012. People everywhere talking about enlightenment and waking up, yet we can't even get out of the mindset of the late 19th and early 20th century. I understand that the pool owner has a right to protect his property but clearly other arrangements could have been made. We need to learn to come together as a society instead of us forcing a deeper wedge between us. Live together or die alone people.

Yep, it's a shame, but there are still plenty of people in America with that mentality. And I don't believe that this owner was interested in making any other 'arrangement', he's probably using this as an excuse to display his blatant racism. Ah well, it's his right, he owns it the property.
