YUP.
The war against Whites, especially White males, accelerates.
How long will it be before there is a 'White Tax'?
Justice Kennedy joins with the left to shove racism-based outcomes down the throats of Americans.
Put it all together and boil it down and the supreme court is saying that it’s a benefit for students to go to a school where they will have stupid classmates.
It’seems also a code word for “lowest common denominator”.
The supremes just allowed unconstitutional actions to proceed, thus rendering themselves eligible for impeachment.
SCOTUS.
I would agree with this decision ... IF diversity were not solely determined by skin color or ethnicity (or sexual orientation).
For example if a student of any race or ethnicity or sexual orientation was admitted on the basis of achievements other than academic ones, then fine ... you don’t want a university full of people who are either intelligent or simply good at taking tests.
But that is not what this is about.
This is part of the wealth, jobs and gun redistribution to terrorists program of Obama writ large.
Terrorists will hide behind being gay or islamic or black in order to get admission to sensitive jobs while we will get disarmed for ultimate slaughter at the hands of these maniacs
Disappointing continuation of legalized racial discrimination.
This decision is evil. It is evil to deny services, a place in school or a job to an individual based on criteria other then personal qualifications.
Now if SCOTUS will just say that the Constitution does not support diversity at the expense of other qualifications or competence.
“...race-conscious...” is NYT newspeak for racism that favors non-whites.
Prog-demons are so transparent.
Translation: Objective measurement is racist.
About a month later I was called and asked to come in and reinterview.
Same job, so I asked what happened. Was told that the employee didn't work out.
So, I asked if I got the job. NO! There had to be another interview.
My response---I told the woman supervisor that I wasn't going to be the token white guy so they could say they met the interview . criteria. And she could take the job and put it where the sun didn't shine. Only, not that nice.
The phone went, "click".
I am not 73 and have survived quite nicely.
Whites should quit applying to Universities that practice racism. Let these universities die the death they deserve.
Dumb peoples of color need degree too, yo.
affirmative action produces the best of the best , example Marilyn Mosby
Kennedy just said that they can discriminate.
And that means it can go the other direction. So now they can say, "race diversity is not our primary goal. Merit is. So race or ethnicity will not be a factor in admission".
He said, "considerable deference..."
Poor Abby Fisher. She had to get dissed by the phalanx of America hating filth who wear black robes, not one of whom can lay claim to the label "American".
UT can sit on it and spin.
This Top 10% Rule that created more diversity came about because UT discriminated against 4 white law students. See - Hopwood v Texas at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopwood_v._Texas
“Hopwood v. Texas, 78 F.3d 932 (5th Cir. 1996), was the first successful legal challenge to a university’s affirmative action policy in student admissions since Regents of the University of California v. Bakke, 438 U.S. 265 (1978). In Hopwood, four white plaintiffs who had been rejected from University of Texas at Austin’s School of Law challenged the institution’s admissions policy on equal protection grounds and prevailed. After seven years as a precedent in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the Hopwood decision was abrogated by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2003.[1] After being rejected by the University of Texas School of Law in 1992, Cheryl J. Hopwood filed a federal lawsuit against the University on September 29, 1992, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. Hopwood, a white female, was denied admission to the law school despite being better qualified (at least under certain metrics) than many admitted minority candidates.”
Hopwood won the case.
After that, beginning in 1997, every state university in Texas was required to admit any applicant who ranked in the top 10% of their graduating Texas high school class. While the 10% had to take the SAT test, the score wasn’t counted. Yes, throwing out national test scores helped minority students.
However, in 2009, UT (with 45,000 students then and over 50,000 today) got pissy about it claiming the 10% Rule would not allow them a measly <100 admission slots for their football team. The university president said in a press conference, with a straight face, that they’d have to shut down Longhorn Football. Ohhhhh, nooooooo!!!!! Yeah, that was nothing but what Bevo left behind on the field after the games, a big pile of steaming bs. After wasting a year and untold tax dollars in the TX Legislature, it was decided to pat UT on their little pointy uber liberal heads requiring they only have to admit the top 8% while all other TX state universities continue to be held to the Top 10% Rule.
Also, the new Top 8% at UT would have to pass the SAT test. Oops, now they’re back to discriminating against minorities who aren’t able to make the score.
Funny how uber lib UT, who’s fault is was in the first place discriminating against white students, doesn’t have to follow diversity rules which everyone else must follow. Once again proving just how racist liberals are.
Even more painful when you realize that Reagan originally nominated Robert Bork to fill the chair that Anthony Kennedy eventually won.
Every Republican president since Eisenhower has nominated, or tried to nominate, at least one center-left RINO Supreme Court Justice.
And the Democratic Presidents?
Every one of their Supreme Court nominations has been a hard line Democratic partisan, except one.
Byron White, nominated by John Kennedy, was a center-right moderate.
