This is a very questionable piece of reasoning.  Admittedly, it would be
desireable to eliminate descrimination from our society, but I think it can
be argued that your solution may have costs (in term of loss of personal
freedom, etc.) that outweigh its intended benefit. Before implementing
such a solution, we have to decide which is the lesser of two evils.
