Is not it time to end RACISM in USA ?

Guest · Apr 1, 2003

DETROIT (AP) — Barbara Grutter spent years as a health care consultant, had good grades and high test scores. So when she was rejected by the University of Michigan's law school, she wondered why her life experiences hadn't caught the eye of admissions officers.

"I thought my application was a very good example that when U of M used the word 'diversity,' they really meant race," says Grutter, 49.

She and two other white applicants, who wanted to get into the school's undergraduate program, sued the university. The U.S. Supreme Court today hears arguments about whether the undergraduate college and law school should be allowed to use race as a factor in admissions.

Typical RubberRoom response from Shameless Schill but then again he's a liberal...

Fat Frank, I am not a liberal. I am a libertarian but I would not expect you to know the difference...

A rose by any other name...

Can your address the topic of this post?

I already DID! I am against affirmative action.

Guest · Apr 1, 2003

Frank,
I'm not another of your falsely labeled "liberals", but I, too, am against affirmative action. How do you explain this?

Hurry up Frank, spin the question before anyone else catches on to your steroetypical tendencies.

Frank,
That execuse is clearly the property of Butcherson ...

.. for copyright infringement concerns I cannot claim such theatrics.

Frank, we don't need any OLD FEMALE lawyers, do we? My guess is that she was turned down, so that, a young MALE who would have years of productivity can have that admission and chance vs an old lady who should be at home baking cookies and babysitting her grandchildren.

The article doesn't say what type of racism? I'm assuming gender, unless you are saying black/white?

I am actually against affirmative action. But playing the race card thing on both sides gets old.

End racism..end affirmitive action.
End racism.. Put the proffesional negros like Jesse Jackson in cuffs for his racist remarks against Colin Pwell, Condi rice because they are not his type of negro.

What?

I think that it is time to at least expirement with ended affirmative action, but you must realize this makes people like Jesse Jackson all the more important.

If you are going to end Affirmative Action, you need to enforce the equal opportunity laws already on the books. You will probably need at least a small federal office whose job it is to make sure that employers are not discriminating against black or white.

It will never end..... Jesse Jackson would lose his job and then blame the whites that a black man in America can't get a job and it would start all over again. Jesse Jackson=Bin Laden

Cant win if you don't Play!!!!
