[quote=Anonymous][quote]Umm, No it's not. Correlation is not causation. It may be something else.  You need to point out what part of policy is biased rather than being vague.  
If there is bias, fixt that problem rather than discriminating. [/quote]

Sorry to do this, but umm yes it is.  The result indicates there is a problem.  Unless you think certain races are just naturally less able then others.  Go ahead, go there if you want.

[quote]Then fix the process rather than discriminating. How are tests biased to give Asians advantage?  by valuing Math? Again don't be vague. 
[/quote]

Sure, fix the test.  Or discount it.  Guess which one is easier for the colleges, and is happening.

[quote]It's the method. If you discriminate against individuals because of their race, that's racism and against the law.
[/quote]

Yes, correct, and that's why there is no "don't admit Asians" policy at any college.

[quote]It does discriminate against individuals in the name of diversity or racial balance/quota.  
[/quote]

Really?  So Asians are discriminated against when they apply to, say, Washington & Lee?  Or Howard? Or BYU?

[quote]LMAO big failure. 
The difference is only in your head and you seem delusional  
They are exactly the same shit. Where are you trying to go with this nonsense?  Affirmative action is not ok but artificail racial balance is good???

Affirmative action refers to a set of policies and practices within a government or [b]organization[/b] seeking to include particular groups based on their gender, race, sexuality, creed or nationality in areas in which they are underrepresented, such as [b]education[/b] and employment.[/quote]

No they are not the same thing, they are done differently and for different reasons.  Again, if you can't understand that difference, you either are choosing not to or are incapable of it.  I guess the former.
