Nah, Philly in 2009:
The worst part? The club released a statement saying that "There was concern that alot of kids would change the complexion .....and the atmosphere of the club." That wasn't something off the cuff, but a prepared statement. I bet that'll be Exhibit A when the discrimination lawsuit goes to trial.
Obvious question -
Is this an adult or children's swim club?
Clearly, if the membership is primarily adult, then that statement very well may be non-discriminatory; but in the context that this is being presented this surely does cry out racism and is a shame.

If only Uncle Al went to school with his friends like Friedman.
