Say what?  That is the Declaration of Independence, which is
a political document, and not legal at all.

Anyway, our anti-discrimination clause is in the 14th
Amendment:

        No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the
        privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor
        shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property,
        without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its
        jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Remember that the U.S. *has* an autonomous local level, unlike most
nations.  State constitutions have a lot more details than the
federal constitution does (and are changed a lot more often, too).

To say that Bilbo's breath was taken away is no description at all.  There
are no words left to express his staggerment, since Men changed the language
that they learned of elves in the days when all the world was wonderful.
