If we legalize murder, the murder rate will plummet.

Definitely not. Unless you are talking about online math courses and tests. The computer does not give partial credit.

Legally she is 100% right, logically she is retarded. Having a required class that black people don't/can't pass as often as white people is against both state and federal law. I know it is stupid but it is the law.

Whenever interviewing a potential employee, make sure you ask them a question they should know based upon their education. Even a Freshman level question can tell a lot. You will be surprised at how many don't remember or never learned the basics.

Imagine you were part of a group with an average IQ of 85 and then ask yourself that question again...

Honestly, college algebra is the easiest class that I have ever taken in my life. I just can't comprehend somebody struggling at it.

Good luck in life if you can't do basic algebra.

this isn't even that bad compared to other disparate impact bullshite. Look at this bullshite from the Obama administration:

"In 2013, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) filed a suit, EEOC v. FREEMAN, against the use of typical criminal-background and credit checks during the hiring process. While admitting that there are many legitimate and race-neutral reasons for employers to screen out convicted criminals and debtors, the EEOC presented the theory that this practice is discriminatory because minorities in the U.S. are more likely to be convicted criminals with bad credit histories than white Americans. Ergo, employers should have to include criminals and debtors in their hiring."

If we ban education, minorities won't fail out of college.

So this professor thinks blacks are not capable of math? Is that not racist?

logic - you either have it or you don't

you cannot learn logic. Like you cannot learn to see colors if you are color-blind.
