[QUOTE="jaydill, post: 175002, member: 2094"] I myself am a quarter Blackfoot and the rest Black. And my parents disprove of me accepting financial aid just because I'm black. Everything I do has to be [i]earned[/i]. And MikeC, you propose a good question. Flaboy, if I was in the positin you were in, but I was the minority, I would be [i]offended[/i] that I'd been selected over you even though I had the lower test score [i]just because[/i] I was a minority and there were quotas to fill. There may have been a time when affirmative action was or seemed like a good idea, but nowadays, we're all able enough to work hard and strive equally for equal jobs, minority or not. [/QUOTE]
