Don't let the usual suspects get to you. As soon as I read that O'Connor wrote the majority opinion I knew we were screwed. I also read a while back (I believe it was in this forum) that the Bush justice department did a crappy job fighting this one, and Ted Olson wasn't giving it his all.
This is very depressing. Diversity is what is wiping out our culture and will lead to the destruction of this country. I came to to the conclusion that I'll probably die before it gets serious, but the generation after me is f--ked.
The Bushbots and other faces of the new Republican party remind me of the Vichy French. Hopefully someday they'll wise up, but it will most likely be too late.
On the other hand, this just means that there are going to be a bunch of dumber than average minority lawyers out there instead of plain dumb white folk lawyers.
The steady chipping away at the bedrock of this country's liberty is a catastrophe.
Which generation are you? Still being slightly young, I just wanna get a general concensus feel for when people think the sh*t is really going to hit the fan. I'm preparing for my escape right now. Problem is...where can I escape to?
I assume that since this discussion is revolving around racial diversity, that you are speaking about racial diversity wiping out our (western) culture, and aour country.
I fond your statement ill-conceived at best, and flat oput ignorant at worst.
There has never been a time, in the history of this nation, when it has not been a diverse nation.
There has been religious diversity because it was a a nation built by people seeking, among other things, religious freedom.
There has been cultural diversity because it was settled by people from many cultures, and a culture was forged from many.
There has even been diversity in the languages spoken, because there has never been a period of time when English has been the only language spoken here.
What you need to come to grips with is the realization that western culture was built on western ideals, not on the color of anyone's skin.
