Nice PC post JT. Hard to broach the subject of affirmative action w/o sounding racist; but regardless of your tongue in cheek, I'd like to see the test. Maybe it asks questions like- 'If your start time is 7AM, what time do you show up for work: a) 7AM, B) 6:59AM, C) 6:45AM, or D) the white devil ain't my master?'
Clearly that would have a "disparate impact".

Here is how the DOL determined that the company, Leprino Foods, is biased against the previously mentioned ethnic groups; only 49% of “otherwise qualified minorities” passed its jobs skills assessment exam compared to 72% of “non-minority” applicants. That means the test “adversely impacted minority applicants,” according to the DOL’s reasoning.
Obama’s Assistant Attorney General in charge of civil rights, open borders advocate Thomas Perez, claims the exams have a " disparate impact" because they disproportionately screen out people of a particular race even though the tests “present the appearance of objective, merit-based selection.”Sounds like gangster government bullying to me.If more minorities don’t get hired quickly the Denver-based producer of mozzarella cheese will be stripped of its lucrative government contracts and banned from entering any future deals with Uncle Sam, according to the feds’ ultimatum. It’s safe to bet that Leprino will oblige since the company stands to lose north of $5 million in government contracts. That’s a lot of cheese!
They can remove Asians as a discriminated minority from the list. That's just comedy.
This all boils down to education where Whites and Asians are typically better educated. Not necessarily because they can afford higher education but because far more Whites and Asians actually complete high school and are in a better place to compete for low end jobs as opposed to Blacks and Hispanics that suffer from high dropout rates.
Oh, and one last thing: They need to stop using the term Hispanics because what they really mean is Mexicans and Central Americans which are a subset of Latinos which in turn are a subset of Hispanics. I always take issue with that, but that's because I am descended from White European Hispanics, the original Hispanics

Another aspect of the problem might be due to the fact that a little over 81% of the people in Colorado are White according to the Census Bureau. Blacks are only 4%. They need to ship some more minorities into that state.

It's diff in UT, LDS has an interest in the cheese industry, religious freedom trumps race.
When I was 15 I went to Vancouver with my parents and we happened upon the gay district there, which I don't realize until a passerby made the comment "You're in the wring part-a-town" I wanted to say "Fuck you motherf'r, or is it fatherf'r" (No offense C H L O E ♥)
