School Desegregation

John at Discriminations has actually read the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and came up with this gem:

I wonder if any of those advocates have taken a look lately at the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which I just did in writing the post immediately below (on his own site). If they have, they would have found Title IV, Section 401(b), which declares:

”Desegregation” means the assignment of students to public schools and within such schools without regard to their race, color, religion, or national origin, but “desegregation” shall not mean the assignment of students to public schools in order to overcome racial imbalance.
Case closed. Unless, of course, laws don’t mean what they say.


His ending cavaet, however, is his argument's undoing. Of course laws don't mean what they say. They mean whatever liberals want them to mean at any given time.
