[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) I’m not tolerant of bigots 
2) A 3.2 is not a B 
3) It’s a small % (8%) - not “over and over and over” 
4) You don’t know anyone who applied to medical school and didn’t get into any school because they were “displaced by black kids” 
5) AA helps to level the playing field to offset centuries of slavery and systematic racism that exists today. AA alone isn’t enough. We need more comprehensive programs to live people out of poverty. I’d include low SES white people in that as well. 
6) White people can deal with a little discrimination - it’s the least we can do.

I don't need to know anyone personally, because the data proves it happens over and over and over and over and over....data trumps personal anecdotes.

And you're calling me a bigot because I think it's unfair for a poor white kid with a 3.8 to lose his spot to a black kid with a 3.2? (you're such a liberal....calling people bigots because they don't agree with unfair liberal policies.) If anything, your remark that whites should be discriminated against shows that YOU are the bigot, against whites. Why you were the bigot who said the white kids can just go to community college? You'd be calling racist if someone said that black kids can just go to community college!

Race should play no role in admissions - just SES. Any black kids suffering from the results of slavery and systemic racism would still get preferential treatment due to low SES. But, and where's where you can't tolerate it due to your bigoted WGAF attitude towards whites, A POOR WHITE KID WITH GOOD GRADES GETS PREFERENCE, TOO. [/quote]
