I’m sure there is someone out there working harder than I am, as there are people who work just as hard. If you find someone who programs 40 hours a week and then works from 9pm -4am Th, Fri, Sat nights... who then picks up side jobs like helping people move, building fences, cleaning yards etc... on Sundays then we…

Wow, I have to admit that was very eye opening and very well could be the cause of what I saw. Where A.A. was the root cause of having “x amounts of minority students” but the REAL culprit was poor/lazy recruiting standards on the schools part. I really don’t even know what to say other than thank you for the comment,…

Agreed, in my personal opinion it doesn’t matter what color you are or what your sex is... if you murder someone because you tried to rob them and they wouldn’t let you take it... you should never see the light of day again.

We did at one time, where inmates would perform labor to pay for their incarceration... but then a bunch of idiots complained and now they can’t do that anymore.

She murdered a human being over a fucking videogame system when she and her bf tried to rob him... yeah I’d say anything less than the death penalty or life in prison is pretty fucking lenient. Especially with the way our justice system gives the chance for parole where she could be out in half that time... I wonder…

Uh... for someone who is dead... yes life is something to envy.

Well that’s your opinion

Again you’re making a very large assumption about my background and where my family comes from... have a good day.

Again, when you see the same behavior during every test and have the syllabus to know how you are being graded... it’s pretty fucking easy to infer what their grades are... but whatever man. I’m not going to waste all my time arguing with you... I offered my opinion based on things that I have personally seen during…

Well at the school I went to... you know what I have already explained this in another comment that I guess you refused to read so I won’t repeat myself again. If you don’t believe it or want to dismiss me as a racist that’s fine... whatever helps you sleep at night. Have a good day.

I see a system that holds black people down, and it is constantly expanded and utilized by the Democratic party... you know the people who have a history of being racists. The people who now buy votes from those who are dependent on them expanding social programs... the people who have an interest in keeping people…

It was not hard to guess their grades when they would put their name on a test and then put their head down and take a nap. I would say out of maybe 40 minority students in my grade that 8 or so fell into this category but were not removed from the school because of A.A. whereas a non minority student that dropped…

Yes and your point is.... that because I’m white my opinion doesn’t matter or what I say is instantly a lie? I’m sorry, I just don’t understand how people can bitch about inequality when we have a program like Affirmative Action... i personally think Affirmative Action is a racist ideal... that because of the color of…

Well if the system is “rigged” it should be pretty easy to spot that when the best candidate is not hired... so hold those individuals responsible. And I will agree with you, the system is rigged... but I bet you’ll blame the Republicans for that when in fact the real cause is the Democrats. Think about it, think…

I didn’t assume every minority student came from affirmative action, there were several that I regularly studied with because they were my friends and were very intelligent. One specifically scored a 36 on the ACT and went on to Harvard law school with a full scholarship... she was much smarter than I was. I can even…

And why is that? A bigot would say something like “them blacks don’t deserve to go to school... they are too dumb”. I simply stated that the best person for the job or the most qualified candidate should be accepted to a school. That’s equality... that’s being fair... giving people a job or admitting them to a school…

System of privilege? You mean where I studied my ass off to make the grades to get into a public magnet school system and continued that from 3rd grade to HS graduation? How I started working every summer from the age 14 and on to save up for my first car? How I took out massive student loans to compensate for the…

Actually I’m the minority in my area, but no I’m not scared. Just voicing my opinion that the best person for the job, or the person with the best grades should get the job or get in the school. It’s not racist it’s fair...

While in this case it does not apply, I have to agree that Affirmative Action is not a good policy. I grew up in the magnet school system, where the courses were advanced and it was very much like being at college. I mean I was learning HS Sophmore/Junior level shit in the 7th and 8th grade.... it was a VERY hard…

As the popularity of Soccer and Rugby grow in the US I have high hopes that one day... we will be one of those teams... we will be able to go out and contend with Argentina, Brazil in soccer.... we will be able to contend with Australia, New Zealand, South Africa in Rugby... it is just not today. Our best athletes…
