US court denies white students' discrimination case

"Roberts has been on the court less than a week......Do you really believe he has read all the cases that were presented?....Give the guy a break."


Are you saying he didn't vote on the case?

They are setting "Law of the land" not what's for lunch on Tuesday.

As long we continue to hold a race and declare the guy in 4th place the winner we will be about distroying our future not building it.

Some white kids work their backsides off and then because they are what? the wrong color, not poor enough? Some I already got mine, wanna feel good social engineer wrecks their dreams.

It is a horrible ruling racist and elitist.

Social engineering and not justice.

Give the Kids a break instead and treat them fairly.

Yet another example of a "justice" system gone mad, upholding a law clearly in violation of the principle of equal protection under the law. IOW, everyone is protected under the law, except when they're not. Where do you turn when the courts and judges are corrupt. Where do you go when the system of "justice" is bereft of justice? I guess we need to learn a lesson from history. When faced with such dilemmas, the patriots of old turned to their ammunition lockers. Could very well happen again if too many mainstream people feel marginalized by the "justice" system in this country.

Soap Box (your voice in the wilderness), Ballot Box (if it meant anything any longer it would be outlawed), Cartridge Box! The first two boxes appear to have run their course. They are fast becoming no impedence. Blackbird.

I know your post wasn't meant for me but I'll comment anyway. I am glad that no one was monetarily compensated since the expense will only be passed onto the students. I also think that if Roberts was involved he probably saw that this case was decided by the voters already anyway which was to strike it down. I am glad.

There is no ideological diversity in our newsrooms, wouldn't there be a more compelling interest here......?

The NBA seems to be functioning quite well with very little diversity......

My girlfriend went to Sweet Briar, an all girls' school in central Virginia. She feels the ABSENCE of diversity, (read boys) is what made her experience there quite fruitful as far as obtaining an education.

But you see, in a world gone mad like this one, those forms of "discrimination" aren't unacceptable, since the victims are only males/whites/conservatives, who somehow "deserve" such discrimination. In fact, in the newspeak of a world gone mad, there is no such thing as discrimination against white male conservatives, only retribution and a righting of "past wrongs".

Well, go ahead and marginalize us further, liberals and PC clowns. Last I checked, we still shoot straighter than you...

Here is another damages issue. There are so many law schools in the USA that literally there are more first year seats than first year students. ANYBODY with a four year degree can find an ACREDITED law school to take them. ANYBODY.

The it is only a matter of passing the desired bar exams. That is there are bar exam prep courses.

It is a 100% certainty that some OTHER law school would take them.

Right. It's just a bogus, shallow case at this stage and the USSC was right to not give it the time of day.

Which would mean Justice Roberts participated, but we don't know whether he voted to hear the appeal or not.

I said this, and wanted to correct it, because I found out yesterday I was wrong. I read that the refusal to hear the appeal was actually voted on before Roberts took office, and they just waited until the first day of the new term to announce it.

Aha. Thank you. That explains the (lack of) press reaction.
