The whole reason behind the CRA is because even if you repeal Jim Crow laws you could still have de facto segregation. If the entire community of white people in a state or locality decides limits what black people do, where they can go, and where they can eat then there is a de facto Jim Crow.
Furthermore, The fact that you find nothing extreme about supporting the right of businesses to treat black people like crap is telling.
Does it not also disturb you that Paul won't disavow the support of white supremacists? I notice that you are avoiding that topic.
