Not the same thing.

Not by a long shot.

Ah, so, then, this means that if a qualified male (I have no idea of the actual purpose of the group) applied, he'd be accepted with open arms, in a heartbeat?

Yeah, right. I have some land I'd like to sell, too. Guaranteed profit of 300% in only six months!! I swear!

La Raza (she belongs to that one too)

The only clubs that are against the "law" are those limited to white males.

Ah, me... "equal treatment under the law", indeed.

100 years from now, historians and psychologists are going to have a field day documenting and analyzing the insanity that led to the downfall of this country.
