Didn't say that, just what I felt could possibly happen. I said "chance", IIRC.


That's how YOU feel, which should not indicate how EVERYBODY should feel.

Doesn't take much to get you pissed anyway so why blame it on special grades. :p

Just because all this happened in your world doesn't mean it's happening all over. There are things happening in various schools that you have no idea about! I listen to a local radio station that addresses the issues of black children in school all of the time, so I hear about it constantly.

ladysycamore is a fruitcake in her own little world who thinks everyone owes her something because she black.

She thinks Caucasians don't need any special stuff. I guess she thinks that they're the smartest bunch out there. I'm kinda hurt that she would diss us, but hey, she has the right to he own delusions.

She also has a superiority complex. Since she thinks it, the whole black community thinks it. Hate to tell ya, bitch (since you think that name is empowering), but that's not true.

I remember hearing this a short while ago reading about this case (or at least I think it was this case). At the time, I had no idea about the "Legacies". I don't hear anyone saying how unfair THAT is.

And you can bet that any changes to that (especially "race"-wise will probably be met with serious reservations.)

Tilt indeed.

Well said warch.
:)

And my dear, young feline friend, you have the right to your own delusions, and victim complex as well. You should get out more.

I believe this special treatment helped our boy George W. into Yale.

I do get out. And I'm not a perpetual victim.

Not at all. (the hell?!?!) :confused:

LMAO, mm'kay....

What fun! :haha: {ScottiefromStarTrek}"She's Brrrrreakin' up Capt'n."{/ScottiefromStarTrek}

Talk about delusions...baahahahah! Too much!

Apparently, it's all in your head. Thanks for playing. :D

Also, if you want to cry racism, why don't you focus on the Mormons? They have a mentality that having black skin is a mark of evil and you will never enter one of their 7 (yes, seven) heavens. Marrying a black person would get you excommunicated. Talk about one fucked up religion. (gag) Also, have you noticed that all Mormons are Caucasian? I'll never live in Utah.

Actually, Lady Sycamore is an intelligent well-read person who does not think everyone owes her something...and yes, she happens to be black.

Define "special stuff."

She does not have a superiority complex, and is well-aware that many blacks do not agree with her views.

I would strongly recommend that you not post to the Cellar immediately after huffing in the future.

Hot Pastrami, where are you? Please confirm this.

(If that is the case, Vai Sikahema is in a lot of trouble.)

I know! I know!
Here is the story about how civil rights came to Brigham Young University...It was for a love of basketball! from this Mormon info site: URL=http://www.algonet.se/~daba/lds/cdc275.htm (Linkie insertie no workie.)

IF it was a problem for the playing field to be slanted towards whites (and only CERTAIN whites at that ), then it is a problem to be slanted towards minorities.

It does no good to slant the playing field against today's whites to make up for the fact that the playing field was slanted towards people with vaguely the same skin color as their parents.

Thanks Warch...you're always a good egg.

So, it's pretty much what I figured...this does not occur now. And FAF is again guilty of PWH (Posting While High).

"Certain" whites? Please explain.

Ok then. What needs to be done to make the playing field equal?

Its not slanted against. The white opportunities still exist, they are the tradition. (how many white college students and grads do we have in the cellar?) What does affirmative action do? Just ask any first generation black college grad, or native american college grad, or latino grad who is the first of their family to achieve that level of education. It bodes well for positive civic contributions of the next generation. And the next.
