I had to hire two people for my company last week and I interviewed about twenty or so people and the people I hired were what I would say had the best fit for the job. Now I have one of the applicants trying to sue me for discrimination. I am a business owner and I should be able to hire whoever I want without black people being able to run to their lawyers every time they don't get hired for a job. What should I do here? I am not a large enough business to have a legal team to advise me. Can you help protect me from this racist idiot?

This issue is a sensitive one as you are absolutely correct that an individual's race should not play a factor when it comes to employment decisions. Unfortunately, without knowing the details of this particular case or consulting with an attorney, it's impossible for me to advise you on the best way to handle the situation. 

I would suggest first assessing the legitimacy of the claim and determining the best path forward to resolve the issue, either through negotiations or by involving legal counsel, if necessary. You should also be sure to document all conversations and decisions that are made.
