geography isn't a protected class. it's not a class at all. it's a set of circumstances. your skin color and the privileges or liabilities incurred are inescapable.
- thaumasiotes 7y ago> geography isn't a protected class Frequently it is. Many laws specifically protect "national origin".
- shadowgovt 7y agoKentucky isn't a "national origin."
- f1refly 7y agoKentucky doesn't has the support a specific national origin might have because there are no laws about that yet. It's an analogy.
- shadowgovt 7y agoIf you think "being from Kentucky" should be treated the same as "being from Ireland," you're welcome to make a case to your Congressperson. Good luck.
- mlevental 7y agoi love this kind of red herring: we're very obviously talking about intranational geography. as the person below me quips: kentucky isn't a nation of origin.
- throwaway_law 7y ago>Many laws specifically protect "national origin" What laws? The US Constitution provides significantly greater protections to US Citizens than foreign nationals, as many of rights are not extended to non-citizens.
