The Discrimination Hypocrisy (Selective Justice)

There are so many ways in which people discriminate and hate. We know that "Federal law prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, gender, pregnancy, national origin (including affiliation with a Native American tribe), religion, disability, citizenship status, genetic information, and age (if the person is at least 40 years old) (nolo.com)." However, most times people discriminate against height, appearance, being too honest, and things for which there are no federal laws. Yes, many people are hypocritical ass***es, and think they are good because they don't discriminate on an illegal basis; however, either way that it is done is morally wrong. Jesus said it best: "love your neighbor as yourself." Be fair and just with all human beings! Some will defend LGBT rights, but discriminate another category or vice-versa. Let's really treat all equally. Equality for all! I said that because there are groups out there that speak up for the rights of some, but ignore others. That is what should be called selective justice. In the state of Florida one's boss can decide not to promote you just because he or she doesn't like how one looks (appearance discrimination).The fact is that these other things I mentioned like height, and so on are most often the case for discrimination, and not all the illegal categories. A friend often says that Hollywood is big on discrimination of appearance. Most movie stars are attractive, do obviously Hollywood discriminates against ugly people. I will stop here.
