California’s Attempt To Ban Black Cars Is Racist

I had high hopes that president Obama would usher in a new ear of post racial harmony and then California had to go and mess it up with this:

In a move that will likely get California’s consumers in a huff, impending legislation may soon restrict the paint color options for Golden State residents looking for their next new vehicle. The specific colors that are currently on the chopping block are all dark hues, with the worst offender seemingly the most innocuous color you could think of: Black. What could California possibly have against these colors, you ask? Apparently, the California Air Resources Board figures that the climate control systems of dark colored cars need to work harder than their lighter siblings – especially after sitting in the sun for a few hours. Anyone living in a hot, sunny climate will tell you that this assumption is accurate, of course. In fact, legislation already exists for buildings that has proven successful at reducing the energy consumption of skyscrapers.

I think any fair minded person can see the obvious stealth racism here. All this talk of “cars” is really code word for people. California wants to ban black people. To suggest somehow that “lighter siblings” AKA light skinned people are somehow superior is an outrage! This is the worst case of racism I’ve seen since the monkey cartoon.

Where in the hell is Al Sharpton on this?
