What is the point of affirmative action against a small minority?
Whites, and especially male whites, are a small and rapidly declining minority in California. Yet we are about to pass Prop 16 to bring back overt hardcore quota discriminstion against them.Instead of giving whites the special rights normally accorded to a minority population we are going to re-institutional legal discrimination against them.
Its mind-boggling.

Poor baby! Wahhhhhhhhhhh!
Prop 16 is just a way to legally discriminate against a particular race and try to paint it as "equality" - only in California (but will likely come to a country near you if the Dems get in power)

So basically the San Diego school district has been "discriminating" for decades and apparently singling out blacks and giving them worse grades (unfairly so it seems) - and by extension they have also been discriminating against whites by giving them more bad grades than Asians - I guess this needs to stop also - talk about moving-the-goalpost and lowering-of-the-bar
I don't know why we're so surprised.
