Yea, racists rejoice.

Anti-racists.

Anti-racists are rejoicing, you must be livid.

It's the Trump tactic. Accuse your opponent of what you are.

Asra is pretty transparent of her leanings.

Yea, the "anti-racists" are using racist tactics, and they are indeed rejoicing. They get to be racist for a bit longer while claiming to be anti-racist.

Yeah. This forum has gotten unreadable from all of the social engineering tropes we see. From the guilt-by-association with advocacy groups, to the "everyone's on our side" rhetoric, to the chest-thumping bravado about arguments being destroyed. It's funny how if you wait long enough, all of their claims eventually get turned on their head.

Like, we went from "people opposing reform are racist," to seeing that the reform was objectively, legally racist.
We went from "merit-based testing disadvantages minorities," to seeing an MIT study that says that not using merit-based testing disadvantages minorities.
We went from "if you're opposing reforms, you're basking in While privilege," to finding out that Brabrand was the key figure in pushing the reforms while Vern Williams was openly skeptical of them.
We went from "the old admissions were sketchy because they didn't admit poor kids," to finding out that that the admissions questions about experience factors were highly dubious.

and so on.

People who think TJ should serve all of FCPS aren't racist. But you know that.

Well, not exactly all of FCPS. But you know that.

This is about the stay. It’s not on the merits of the admissions policy.

well it kinda is... likelihood of prevailing on the merits and all that

That’s one factor in the consideration of the stay.

A necessary one!

Sad day. I guess we'll see how the Harvard case turns out before this one makes its way to the supreme court.

Harvard’s policy will be upheld 5-4 or 6-3. Sorry.

I guess in the end, anything is possible. I'm just sad that in this day and age, people still think that practicing racist discrimination by a government entity or publicly funded entity is a good idea.

That's the wrong question. The question is whether it's legal. Lot's of policy out there that may not be a good idea; courts don't render judgements on that question.

Claude Hilton just got it wrong that's all. Too bad some on here had to get their hopes up so high, but he's out of touch with the law in this area. Any other judge in that district it would have come out the other way in the first place.
