    The Constitution specifically provides for equal protection under the law. Everyone has inalienable rights. When some get special rights or preference, then the rest have to give them something. This is a concept that is absolutely forbidden by the Constitution.

    Justice Department said they are only looking at a single program at one school- not affirmative action in general.

    This point is mostly lost on sycophants. They always think the amount of giving they will have to do will easily be compensated by the reward for their obedience.

    Still, equal protection under the law applies. I think all federal funding of all schools should end tomorrow. I'm sick to death of having school be so expensive and indoctrinational. If schools want to indoctrinate, they can do their own fundraising. State funding should be next. State schools are passing on their own students, taking more out-of-state students because they can charge more. If kids think some schools are more prestigious, then their parents can move there, live there, work there, and pay taxes there.

    The entire concept of affirmative action is a disgrace. Anyone who supports such in-your-face bull$#@! is not friend to the cause of human liberty.
    There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

    And they'll still whine that it's not enough.

    Middle class working white folks can't afford it anyway.

    There is local "ivy league" prep school that costs over $50,000 a year.

    Between "diversity" and cost, the student body is mostly foreigners or tokens.

    Looking back in town history, 50-60 years ago, the vast bulk of the student body were locals, mostly men, mostly middle class, many on the "GI bill".

    Not my country anymore.

    I heard it was just looking at 1 case where Harvard discriminated against Asians. Did the DOJ expand the prob? AA for any organization taking government money violates the U.S. Constitution.

    Population Replacement.

    I do wish we could have a society in which skin color and gender and race and ethnicity and religion did not matter. What we have today is a society that is flat out hostile toward those of European heritage, a.k.a. Whites. Whites as of I think 1990 used to account for just 12% of the worlds population. Today, that has dropped to < 5%, mostly because of increases in population, and whites are not growing at the rates others are growing.
    1776 > 1984

    The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an
    Honest Money System , which frees the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, is the single largest contributing factor to the World's current Economic Crisis.

    Interesting. You want a society where race does not matter yet seem concerned about the "decline" of the white population as a percent of the global population. I guess for you, it does matter. Maybe you can claim "persecuted minority" status. Or start making more babies.

    Im saying I dont target others on things they have no control over. I do target others on their behavior, such as immigrating then demanding welfare and all languages be changed everywhere to suit them. I also think that others have been targeting me, not based on behavior, but on being a white male.

    Just a counter thought for this thread: if you are a libertarian who believes in a business owners "right to discriminate" then I think you have to support a universities right to do the same vis a vis affirmative action. It would be a different matter id such quotas were in place due to the state. Guys not every issue is team red vs blue.

    The answer is to cut off government funds, IF you want State universities they should not be allowed to discriminate, private universities can do what they want.

    "Discrimination" can take many forms..

    Best to remove government from all education instead of relying on government lawyers to draft protocol for government employees to use assuring equal treatment..

    The amount of college graduates who can produce absolutely nothing grows every year, who needs 'em?
