(CNN) -- A state commission issued a finding of probable cause that racism was involved in the decision by a suburban Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, swim club to revoke privileges of a largely minority day care center.

The club screwed up when they gave their statement. They should have just told the truth, the kids were acting like thugs so they kicked them out.

Yeah, random, but I got cut off three times by them before reading this thread. Just kind of re-inforced my opinion.

Apparently, a fine of up to $55,000 is possible here as there is a state law which provides penalties in the event of this sort of racial discrimination.

Huntingdon Valley Swim Club, the facility that received national criticism after turning away a camp group of 56 minority children, is on the receiving end of a federal discrimination lawsuit filed by the U.S. Justice Department. The complaint asks that the club be ordered to cease all discrimination, including a policy put in place after the event in question, which bars all summer camp groups from using the facility. The Justice Department alleges the policy was a result of “racially motivated opposition from Valley Club members” who wanted to prevent that specific group of children from returning. According to media reports, the swim club filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in November.
