Well, with the passage of the Civil Rights Act, "White Only" pools became illegal. This, of course, outraged the crackers. There was no way in Hell they were going to allow any spooks in any pool where their darling little ofay children were going to swim.

So, they fought and they fought and they fought but the law was the law and the public pools were integrated. And the pools were closed. And filled in.

Dare we hope for the same regarding these "good Democrats" and their theology of hate?

Fixed if for you.
