Affirmative Action Banned!

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.

"Do you really think simple "enforcement" with NO concrete and effective policies in place are going to heal racial disparity?"
This means you actually think that black people need special treatment to be equal to Chinese immigrants who have no communities of their own and often arrived with less than $100, but who's kids now fill the US's higher education establishments.

You are now on trial for being a racist.

The fact that the world isn't fair means that if affirmative action worked for the greater good it should be supported temporarily even though it is immoral. However affirmative action is less useful than the same expense used to increase enforcement of civil rights.

Regulating employment and prosecuting and punishing businesses which discriminate is much less of a restraint on the economy than forcing companies to employ people they don't need, whether they have been proven to be discriminating or not. It also saves the government having to explain to young white males why they are replaced by underachieving minorities in a pathetic attempt to stop them joining the brownshirts and skinheads in droves. Especially with the rise of neo-conservatism, an energy crisis and climate change on the horizon we should be fearful of the future.

Black people do not need more than the laws which apply to everyone else in the US. The reason why black inner city kids don't go to MIT, whilst 1st generation Chinese kids do is because of a lack of law enforcement in the right places.
