Doesn't it take away from EVERYTHING blacks have wanted for years?! Some of the powers that be that supposedly represent the black race are so paranoid that there is racism around every corner that they must degrade the whole race with affirmative action.
I think they view it as a kind of reparations and therefore they are entitled to it.
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
Samuel Adams
