I'm curious as to some examples of hair discrimination.

A few examples that were given in one news report was a high school wrestler not allowed to compete in a wrestling tournament because his long dreadlocks violated rules and a college football player that got messaged by someone who thought his dreadlocks were disgusting.

Apparently I'm the only one who thinks this bill is ludicrous. The government should not be used as tool to make everyone accept hairstyles they don't like. Not approving of dreadlocks should not be considered an infringement on another's civil rights.

I'm a moderate independent (neither Republican or Democrat) who has been describing myself as an anti-Republican for years because I almost always vote for a Democrat usually based on the simple fact he's not a Republican. I voted Gore, Obama and most recently Hillary Clinton (though I dislike her). With what is going on with the Democratic Party now and what I'm observing on social media, the mass media, the far-left "progressives" and socialists (including among the Democratic candidates to be president and the general animosity to the American way of life) -- well, I'm as appalled by Democrats these days as much as I am by Republicans.

Unless a moderate wins the party nomination I won't vote for a Democrat in 2020, so I guess I just may not vote for the first time in my life. I sure as hell won't vote for Trump.

This Cory Booker nappy hair bill is ridiculous. Can you imagine him or someone like him as President of the United States?!
