Ohio Landlord Puts Up "WHITE ONLY" Sign

Cincinnati landlord Jamie Hein's, violated Ohio's anti-discrimination laws after she hung a "white only" sign outside her swimming pool. 

The swim pool owner lost her appeal with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission this past Thursday, as she proclaimed that the sign was simply a "decorative antique."

Former tenant Michael Gunn brought his bi-racial daughter to a Memorial Day weekend pool party, which was also attended by twenty other guests. Gunn commented that Hein later questioned him about the "chemicals" used in his daughter's hair, while she proceeded to blame his daughter (the only non-Caucasian at the party) for making the pool water "cloudy."

Later on in the week the tenant took his daughter back to the pool, only to see a sign that read "white only" hanging on the gate. 

As part of the commissions investigation, Gunn produced copies of texts that Hein had sent to his fiancé shortly after the family moved out, blaming "grease" in his daughters hair for the cloudy condition of the pool.

After an investigation into the allegations and "informal efforts to resolve the case", the Civil Rights Commission ruled in September that Hein had violated the law. Although Hein requested an appeal after the initial findings neither she nor her attorney, showed up to the hearing on Thursday.

Jaime Heins' sign of "White Only", clearly discriminated against more than just the Black race but all races that clearly do not have white skin -- which is a lot of people.

Does this news of racism surprise you? Do you think that historical events have anything to do with the way Republicans treat President Obama? Do you think it's coincidence that the majority of Republican candidates running for president -- have had a flip flop with the race card?

For Example: 

1. Ron Paul and his defense of racist newsletters.

2. Michelle Bachman commented that,  "Black kids had it better during slavery times?"

3. Newt Gingrich wants, "poor children to become janitors."

4. Rick Perrys' secluded West Texas hunting camp coincidently titled, "Nigger head camp". 

5. Rick Santorum slipped up during a town hall meeting saying he doesn't want to make, “Black people’s lives better by giving them someone else's money."

6. Hermain Cain actually is black, so not sure if he plans to do an "uncle Tom" move? 

As of lately, Jon Huntsman and Mitt Romney have yet to slip up with the race card; do you thnk they will?

When there's a constant outcry of inequality, racism, prejudice, discrimination and racial profiling -- these cries are for real. It isn't a joke and it isn't make believe. There are real people in this world that go through this kind of degradation on a daily basis; much worse during slavery but it still lurks beneath the surfaces.

If we are ever going to attain closure to this matter, America has to have a firm discussion on race relations. We need to call out the elephant in-the-room no matter how uncomfortable the climate.
