This is what I responded to.

He terms not being white as the “incorrect” ethnic group.

There is NO correct ethnic group.

You what you are racially. No race is “incorrect”.

But if you want to put it that way, i.e. say its “correct” to not be a minority, no its not equal, obviously, re: employment etc. which is why affirmative action type stuff ever even came into existence.

And Im responding to the horrible comments on here. Im not saying I support the rule. I just hate racism or folks saying racist shite cluelessly, not even knowing how racist it sounds.

To simply put it, if you are going to allow this then you have to require a fair racial distribution for players on the teams and for playing time. Might as wel foi it at every position.

12.5% of population is black? So only can have 4 black QBs in the nfl. Woops we are already over that (Murray, Wilson, Jackson, Taylor, Watson, Mahoney, Prescott, Brissett). That’s not even counting Winston and Newton.

Guess you have to cut or Bench 4 of them.

Now coaches? Lynn, Flores, Tomlin. Hire one more and you’ll be at proportional to the population.

Again, whites make up 61% of the population, yet only make up less than 30% of the players. Less than half their population representation. African Americans make up nearly 70% for a whopping 5-6 times over representation.

If you want fairness, there you go. Cut 80-85% of black players and replace them with Hispanic, white and Asian players to represent their population percentage.

See how much those players are keen to that.
