I remember back in the 70s when racial quota systems were allowed I was just thinking the same. I was in high school then. I am now a grandmother.
How many generations does it take to educate a minority?
To: Eroteme
Reasonable take. Perhaps you are correct. Thanks.

530 F. 3d 87, reversed and remanded. What does this mean? Remanded back to the ultra-leftist Circuit judge who first rejected the claims? Or does the ruling order they must get their promitions? this is a BIG DEAL. The left in CT is saying if the case is sent back, the firefighter will likely never get their promotions, and they will hold up the process forever.

Thank you, Lord. Pray this plus the newly

My prediction: Repubs fold like the usual house of cards, Sonia's in like Flynn, and the great USofA continues to choke and gag on the bile of socialism while crowds of illegals and degenerates cheer in frenzied glee. That's because the whole system is rigged and the republican party has been infiltrated with secret democrat moles. Any resistance to much of anything by the republicans is window dressing. The pubs are faking it.

How does the government assign people by race anyway? Do they have que cards with comparitive photos they are supposed to hold up to compare physical traits?

How many generations does it take to educate a minority? There's a racist joke in there somewhere. Wait for it ...

Fox-Michael-Jackson-News hasnt picked this story up. Why isn't Billy Mays, and the FAA attempt to smear him and defend UAL a bigger story? Drug-addicted anorexic pedophile bites the dust and Fox is shocked?

#145.
That is a reasonable take. Perhaps you are correct. Thanks.

Meghan Kelly asked the reporter who was out side the SC a bunch of questions and then told the reporter to study the the ruling and when she had answers to the questions they would get back with her on air.

Response from Camp BamBam:
"This ruling proves the current court is out of touch with the real life of ordinary Americans. We need more diversity; there was no empathy for the plight of persons of color; we need Sonia Sotomeyer to balance it out."
Heck, no, HolyO!!!
What we
NEED is a high court that does EXACTLY what this one did--OBEY THE CONSTITIUTION OF THE UNITED STATES!!!
Forget all this 'touchy-feely' crap!!! >:-(
Way to go, SCOTUS!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!! :-)

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink
You can lead a minority to school, but you can’t make him think
