Meatstick Opinion: Outdated Equal Opportunity Statements

I was looking at a Washington State Park guide. It's basically a little brochure that tells about all the great things the park has to offer. I noticed on the back of the pamphlet the following statement in small, italic lettering:

All Washington state parks are developed and maintained
for the enjoyment of all people, regardless of age, sex,
creed, ethnic origin or physical limitation.

At first this phrase seems pretty inconspicuous mainly because it is a pretty common phrase seen at different places in our daily routines. The more I looked at it though, the more it didn't seem right to me. I think this phrase is pretty outdated. The phrase is actually counterproductive because it reminds people that they are different even if they aren't discriminated against. Unfortunately, there was a time in the not too distant past in America that this phrase would have needed to have been displayed in order for certain ethnic and races of people know that they were welcome somewhere, in this case into a Washington State Park. I'm not saying that we live in a perfect world with no discrimination. The private golf memberships at places like Augusta National are a prime example that some forms of segregation still exist. What I am saying is that we should remove the above generic phrase for all places that no longer discriminate and force places that do discrimate to be embarrased and shamed by having to make a disclaimer of their own. For example, a proper statement upon entering Augusta National might read something like this:

The old, white men that run Augusta National would
like you to know that we do not accept
women members and we also will do everything
humanly possible to keep our black membership around
2% of our overall membership
