Affirmative Action Banned!

Name: Anonymous 2006-11-09 21:25

My state (Michigan) has wisely followed in the foosteps of California and banned racist/sexist affirmative action programs in Michigan, that would have discriminated against people based on nothing but their gender or the color of their skin, all in the name of promoting equality.  

It passed by a pretty wide margin 58% - 42% of the vote.. or, another way of looking at it: 

2,137,574  ---  YES on stopping AA
1,552,459  ---  NO on stopping AA

Hopefully this'll spread like wildfire throughout the rest of the states.

"And if they had better services to offer than their competition, they would very likely be hired."

The problem here isn't whether or not they are meritable. They are. The problem are companies that hire a white person because they are white; when there are other non-whites who are just as meritable if not MORE than the white canidate.

In this case, "better services" are taken to mean "being white". Affirmative Action prevents discrimination in those cases where being white is considered a commodity.

My morality is not only logical, it is consistent.  Thus, it is strong.

Sounds to me like you're trying to describe that 3 inch of slimey worm you fuck your sister's pimpled ass with everynight. "Thus, it is strong." HAHA OH WOW. White Weeaboo Anonymous makes Anti-Chan L. O. L.

Slavery is a violation of individual rights.  Had the people of hundreds of years ago had the respect for property rights that I have, slavery would never have been allowed, as it is an obvious violation of individual property rights.

Ok, Mr. Shit-for-brains. Let's take your delusion for face value, then. Slavery was ended primarily on the grounds of property rights...lol.

Ok, yeah, no it wasn't. Back then the south considered people as property and banning slavery was a violation of THIER property rights. I find it hard to believe that back then, you would've been fighting for black people's property rights. Judging by the posts you made I'm going to assume you are under the general belief that blacks are inferior; so yeah: You fails it.

No one who opposes affirmative action is supporting discrimination, we are just saying you can't declare all white people to be racists without evidence. If a company is judging people by their raceinstead of their skills then they should be penalised, but I fail to see why whites who are not racist should shoulder the burden of whites who are racist just becuase they are less likely to be discriminated against.

What burden, you fucking idiot? The burden of hiring a black person? I seriously don't get it. Can you seriously tell me how non-racist white business owners are effected by Affirmative Action? And how the hell do you know what all white people are thinking, anyway? CLEARLY there's a divide here, you're not understanding.

If you're not guilty of racism in your practices, then you'll have nothing to worry about. Affirmative Action isn't outside of your present hiring practices anyway. Stop acting as if AA is some kind of legislated attack on the white race. You sound more paranoid about race than anyone in this thread. 

What are you so concerned about? A person who isn't as meritable getting a job a meritable white person should've gotten? Well, I think there should be sub-policies in place that should insure that won't happen. If you still have a problem with AA; it's because a black being a hired over a white person just doesn't sit well with you.

Too fucking bad, Mr. Racist. Move to a place that isn't free and doesn't practice equality and democracy.
