Post Affirmative Action

Our stupid supreme court is taking this fucking affirmative action way too fucking far. Those stupid people there are giving even more handi-caps to those who arent caucasian. There is no difference, except for maybe beliefs and skin color, along with nationality. But how does that change their intelligence? If they keep on going with this shit, its gonna be time to have some fun
You havnt seen pwnage untill youve seen me

Okay, I'm gonna do my damnedest to bring this back on topic. This happens to be something I feel very strongly about.

Affirmative Action is bullshit, plain and simple. I'm not a racist, and I'm not a bigot. It's because I'm not a bigot that I feel AA is unnecessary and actually detrimental. AA drives a rather large wedge between races via workplace "ethics". People are being taught that as long as you're not white, it doesn't really matter if you're the best at what you do. It's the same way with welfare. People are being taught that it's not necessary to excel in life by their own action. People are being taught that free rides are offered by our government, and that practically anyone of a non-white race is eligible for it.

These facets of our society need to be removed. All they do is make that line dividing our races even bolder and harder to breach. If all men are created equal, why are some given preferential treatment by our government? It's hypocrisy, and it needs to end.

Oh, and I'm moving this to the Conspiracy thread. A few heated insults are not grounds for it's relocation to this forum. This is a great topic, and I would hate to see it's progress mired by the name-calling that the Flame Forum encourages.

I actually agree, which is why I didn't know why silver called the OP a fucking pig.

The only thing that really pisses me off is college acceptance. In some of the more prestigous colleges, where the ranking system, which is based on courses taken, extracurricular activites, test scores, etc. is sometimes very close to either getting accepted or not, or to determine how much of a scholarship you get, white people are actually at a handicap.

This is completely hypothetical, and I'm making up the numbers, but I know the percentage basis is somewhat correct. For example, if a white student gets a 1400 on their SAT's, they may get something like 100 points on the ranking system. Now, if a black student, applying to the same school gets a 1000 on the SAT's and has all the same credetials as the white student, the black student will get accepted to the school because of a technicality. That being, they got extra points for being black, and that is bullshit.

All-in-all, AA is horseshit, and shouldn't even exist anymore. At one point I must admit that it helped, but now it is getting out of control.

unf. I've though about this before. I'm impartial because I know if it didn't exist, there would be a lot more all-white colleges around -_-

And yes the preamble is fucking hypocritical. Pretty much never until 1964-65 have we come close to being 'equal' and we still aren't.

GOD! Why cant the people who make the big laws think this way. AA is the worst idea I can think of. No one and I mean no one should be let into a school unless they meet the standards of that school. It makes me sick to think that someone who wants to be a doctor and just happens to be white can be turned down just so that someone with a lower intellect can be one just cus their not white. I just cant see how its not their falt that they didnt get better grades in school. If we start getting all white schools then so be it. All that means is that there are more white people applying them selves than black or hispanic. How would you like to know that your doctor failed human anatomy but is still a doctor becuse of AA. this shit is scary. were letting the dumb people take over the jobs that require the smarter minds. it should be based on how much you know not how dark your skin is.
