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.

There are 100 places at a renowned university course and 1000 applicants. The quota is set at 10%. Of the top 100 achievers in the entrance exam 91 are white. You are black and come in place 105 with 101-104 being white.

If you knew this and had any self-respect would you allow the authorities to replace the white in place 100 with yourself even though the white did better than you in the entrance exam?
