Holy crap!

How can you defend a goal like that (and try to claim it's not really a quota)? Why are you forced to defend someone who thinks in such ways about race? That's truly disturbing.

I am a minority. I don't look at people's skin color or gender when I hire someone. That's unethical, it's wrong and demeaning to ALL races.

To sit there and say that I'd like to see 1/10 people hired to be a "qualified" minority is pure bullcrap. What I want to see is 10/10 highly qualified "kick-ass" employees that will make the competition quiver in fear.

Just because someone is qualified does not make them the best person for that job. That's a fundamental but very important difference to make.

If you start believing that this isn't an insiduous train of thought, then you've started down the slippery slope to socialism and don't even know it. It also is the start of the plantation/white guilt mentality which leads to minorities believing they aren't ever going to be good enough.
