[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really wish liberals would stop this disgraceful havit of calling everyone a racist or bigot. There is absolutely nothing bigoted about pointing out that white applicants with a 3.8 GPA get rejected from institutions that accept black applicants with a 3.2 GPA (as published data clearly shows) and to discuss the inequity in this situation. It is clearly racist to discriminate based in skin color, which is what these institutions are doing.[/quote]

What’s the right term for thinking blacks are out to take what you think you’re entitled to?

NOBODY is entitled to anything. Let the students compete, and the ones with the best grades and test scores get in, with "bonus" points for those from poor backgrounds. But skin color should not be a factor.

You act as if blacks are ENTITLED to get into to med school regardless of how much lower than grades/scores are compared to whites. [/quote]

You assume that white applicants are being rejected for lesser qualified minorities. Absurd!![/quote]i
OF course they are! The data all show it.

What is absurd is that you will fight to the death to maintain AA policies that favor blacks, and then deny that whites are rejected in favor of blacks. [/quote]

+1.

To be precise, it is whites and Asians being rejected in favor of blacks.[/quote]

Yes. And what is so irking is that these bleeding-heart liberals who proclaim to "care about people" (as long as it's the skin color they favor) call other people racist for not giving preferential treatment to blacks with lesser qualifications - and then they demean poor whites  as "white trash" and say "Billy can just got to community college."

Reverse that: Can you imagine if conservatives said that black kids can just go to community college? Or called them "black trash"? [/quote]
