Affirmative Action, i had to Options

[onenonly101]

Should Affirmative Action be outlawed?

I want to hear what others say before I comment

no, he is being sarcastic and pointing out a few facts.

and i'm sorry onenonly101, but you are wrong. affirmative action does not aid asians. the asian continent is gigantic. anyone from there, in addition to pacific islanders, are considered asian/PA islander. which means, the success of some groups of asians leads to the whole group being treated differently

and just becausesome of the asians are smarter, and that even with affirmative action limiting our access to selective colleges, this minority has still mangagesd to earn up to 40% population at selective colleges, like berkley.

but you see, this is only a few of the asians.

you seen asian ghettos? there's in california. you've never heard of the asian prostitution rings? you are hurting all asians. because affirmative action gives NO SUPPORT TO ASIANS. ASIANS ARE CONSIDERED SMART ENOUGH ALREADY, BASED ON THE OBSERVATION THAT THERE ARE ASIANS IN UNIVERSITIES.

so , if i get what you're saying...
you're saying that

the blacks, hispanics, and other minoritys are too dumb to get into college and get jobs on thier own?

is that what you're saying?

and, asians have been treated as those. chinese exclusion acts, japanesse internments, lynchings of chinese. they were given the wortst jobs, just 80 years agos, and persecuted just 50. when did slavery end? over 150 years ago.

this is preffered treatment.

two wrongs do not make a right. sure, it was wrong the way minorities were treated. but using racism to reach racial quotas is not the way to make it better.


here is one that would. use some money to improve the schools in the slum areas and areas of poverty. then you'd actually be helping the people who need it, with out using racism.
