>> i think probably i think what happened was probably not appropriate and i think you know, are putting yourself at risk certainly i am sure and banana republic or gap doesn't want the manner to show merits of women and telling them they look too urban. that it is going to be pretty much construed as a codeword for too african-american or too black. where is the legal line if you are trying to match the customer base. you are talking about westchester county. i don't know. i mean the majority are white. again, i don't know those answers. there is illegal definition somewhere or do they have to be completely colorblind when it comes to their staff? >> new york state has human rights law that is thwarted and it requires that companies you know such as banana republic or gap that they have policies or practices that are nondiscriminatory or basically neutral on their face and that are not going to apply to any race in particular. it is more in a statement than it is the direction in how to draft?
