Went back 5 pages to look for it. SIAP

A conservative student group at the University of Texas at Austin held an “Affirmative Action Bake Sale” on Wednesday, charging different prices based on the race or ethnicity of customers. While the group anticipated some backlash, they probably didn’t expect to be met with over a hundred angry student protesters.
The Young Conservatives of Texas UT chapter priced the baked goods the highest for Asians, marking down the prices for white, black and Hispanic people, attempting to mirror what they believe is preferential treatment in the application process. Native Americans were not required to pay for the cookies.

They're mad because they're "saying blacks can't get in on their own merits".
Posted on 10/26/16 at 7:52 pm to TFS4E
If blacks are angry about that then why do they support affirmative action acceptance policies?
Posted on 10/26/16 at 7:54 pm to Cosmo
Exactly. It's a brilliant troll.

Put this in the OP. You can read the price sheet and it's awesome.

Affirmative Action has been a really big deal at UTAustin for a while now. Affirmative Action is absurd and needs to go. It doesn't help anyone. It rejects qualified students and accepts students who would otherwise not make it. Then those students don't do well in the curriculum and are more likely to fail out of school bc it is too rigorous for them

That isn't what they are claiming, moron.
