It's not racist or immoral to have white proms that exclude black people because:
Everybody does it (Northerners are as racists are Southerners)

Two wrongs make one right (Blacks are allowed to have black grad ceremoniess)

False analogies (Never been to a party where all the people were white?)

Strawman (You want the government to intervene. The US Constitution allows freedom of association)

Appeal to sympathy (The media just loves to pick on Southerners).

Appeal to tradition (That’s the way it’s always been)

see #67. I think some of your assumptions from my original post are invalid.

Segregation does cut both ways. Free Association is a right (which I did say.)

There you have it.
