I knew this thread was coming eventually.

The Trump administration is preparing to redirect resources of the Justice Department’s civil rights division toward investigating and suing universities over affirmative action admissions policies deemed to discriminate against white applicants, according to a document obtained by The New York Times.

All for it. Now if President Trump and AG Sessions will crack down on Police Departments stealing from their citizens through Civil Forfeiture then I can get fully behind them.

The ACLU is going to blow their loads all over this one.

Affirmative action is the only legal form of discrimination.

I love this move but LSU can go down guilty as hell for this if it is pushed far enough.

Trump is literally George Wallace

Good, punish the frick out of LSU.
I don't want my flagship school discriminating against whites.
I don't want them discriminating against ANYONE. Period.

I can get behind this 110%

Race should play no factor in admissions.
Posted on 8/1/17 at 9:59 pm to 225bred
wow... maybe I should consider going to college.

This is really true though. I have 2 employees who have worked for me all summer. One white girl who has almost a 4 pt. in pre-pharmacy has 80 hours in college. Has no money, no family to help her. She failed to get AA financial aid. She might not go back next week. Has $15,000 in loan debt already. Another cashier can not speak correct grammar, has incorrect sentence structure, can't add 3 grocery items prices together, can not divide prices to get a sale price, made C's and D's in her first two years. She is Black and got an AA grant. Pays nothing for college. Starts the 20 something. Is that right? The girl with a 4 pt. deserves it.
