affirmative action maybe was somthing you do for a year but not for 50. Your just giving neo nazi justification were they can say minorities are stealing jobs and education and actually sadly admit some truth in it.
All miniroties desserve is a equal right to compete and be treated as equals they may receive whatever help they need to do it money wise. But to me education and employment is about skills and abilities not your skin texture, It makes no sense to give a person with lower marks a free jump ahead agiast one with higher marks, Unless its 50/50 and your school lacks diversity choose the black guy but if you got more blacks then whites and its 50/50 pick the white guy.
Just because whites miss treated blacks decades ago doesnt justify vengeance on todays generation who had nothing to do with it.
