WHATEVER you say about AA, no matter WHO started it, it's a racist program........ AGAINST minorities! It basically, as a fundamental principle, says that Minorities aren't as good as whites, because they have a different skin color (that's it's SOLE measurable determining factor when it kicks into play)... it says, as a point of it's existance, that Minorities aren't as good as whites, so therefore, it's necessary.
All I'm saying is, you should be outraged at it.

I gave you history, and I even gave you something you can't even give, a better solution to AA. What more do you want from me. To admit AA is racist against minorities, NO. It's not, it is a quick fix that should have been handle different, but it's easier to do, and cost less. Education is the better way to go, but it takes too much time, and cost too much, and most right wings like the education dept. anyways. AA is not racist, just a very bad idea that is a quick fix for a way bigger problem.

One more thing, I'm a person who has seen, faced, lived in and suffered from people being racist to me. Been called names, discriminated against, pull over by cops for nothing. At my own school a police officer who doesn't even patrol this campus stops me to just ask me if I go here, and I was with my two white friends, and neither one got asked a thing. I got tons of stories, but you know what, with racism, you can get outrage, because then you put yourself on that persons level. You must learn that some people are just dump. You can't change them, they don't want to be changed. So all you can do is try to talk to them, if they don't want to listen, that is their choice, report them to the City Hall so that they wouldn't do this again to another person because of their skin, and wash your hands with it.

I'm amazed, that a program exists, in our government, that says this..
- You're black. You can't get accepted into college, so since you're black, I'll give you an extra 5 points on your test, only because you're black.
And you don't see that it's racist. That's the problem I have with this. I mean, honestly, I don't really give a fuck. It's the minorities that are losing out, I'm just trying to tip you guys off, if you want to be treated equally, don't come up with programs that divide and denegrate you to a lesser place in society. We're doomed to repeat the last 200 years of inequality if we leave programs like this in existance. Luckily, I'm born white, so I guess I don't have to worry about it, when I try to do something about it, and show people how unfair it is, I get accused of being racist. LOL whatever, I guess I'll just ignore racism like the rest of the white people, fuck it.
YAY AFFIRMATIVE ACTION!!! BLACK PEOPLE AREN'T AS SMART, SO THEY NEED EXTRA POINTS TO MAKE IT FAIR!!!
HIPPI:
You got it all wrong. It goes like this...
YAY, AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. I GET TO GO TO A BETTER COLLEGE THAN THE WHITE GUY SITTING NEXT TO ME, EVEN THOUGH HE PROBABLY DESERVED IT MORE THAN I DID. HELP THE MINORITIES, FUCK THE ONES WHO ESTABLISHED THE SYSTEM. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
