..........So where's the affirmative action in basketball?
See, with Ronnie and Tom, and me, and Craig...y'all see it's not just blacks and mexicans who are poor. Affirmative action means poor white people stay poor; you'll find that many manual labor companies have mostly coloured employees, and you'll also notice in terms of unskilled laborers, there are, percentage wise, more whites than coloured unemployed.

Why? Because we're immigrants to this country just like your forefathers were? Are you too ignorant to know that your "white" people weren't the original people to inhabit this land? In that case, the Native Americans should have the right to deny you and your white folks jobs. Isn't that the way it should be then?they dont deserve tobe here because all they are is fuckin trouble,if they could straighten their act up people wouldnt have a reason to hate them

We let guilt get in the way of logic.
there are, percentage wise, more white unskilled labourers than coloured unemployed.

In the end, it comes down to minorities are doing themselves a disservice with Affirmative Action. Who do you think is passing these laws? White people. Like I said, this is more white people telling you you're not good enough.I'm not worried about any effect affirmative action is going to have on my ability to be successful, becuase frankly, I'm that damn good. If everybody would live up to their potential, you wouldn't need the government giving you handouts like this.
