Sure Obama's the worst President ever, for Blacks, but Clarence Thomas is the worst h

[Raffishragabash]

How did you connect opposing affirmative action to an "eternal legacy of slavery"?

Same way it is done, right here:

Now, maybe you could try to explain specifically how Thomas' position is flawed?

Because he agreed that institutional racism exists so AA gives opportunity to those equally- and higher-qualified brilliant Black workers, previously shut out, but then...

our Uncle Thomas sought to get rid of this social imperative without first, I repeat, without first purging the illegal racial-discrimination which AA fights off. THAT is illogical.


Thomas is strategically, flawed, by thinking White people's ILLEGAL racial-discrimination should be left alone to just go away whenever it feels like it. That is essentially the stance he's taking, by being against AA.

You are truly a racist mental midget.

Check out this fleecing of Equality re Educational Affirmative Action in 2013. This is sickening:

...Thomas argued a very basic premise: The government should consider race only when there is a "pressing public necessity."


In Thomas' view, that means the state can only consider race "to provide a bulwark against anarchy, or to prevent violence."



Affirmative action, he argued, hardly meets those standards.



What's more, he said, just as the court decided that discrimination was unconstitutional when the country set up "separate-but-equal" schools, it should also conclude that it is wrong when universities include race in their admissions decisions..

He is correct. Discrimination is either wrong or it isn't. There's no middle ground. I don't know what a pressing public necessary reason could be.

The Eternal Legacy Of Slavery is always a "pressing public necessity" when you love Black people and hate the racism which subjugates them. Always. It does not take a day off, thereby Affirmative Action should not take a day off either.

Even White Supremacist Ann Coulter understood that fact much, much better than Uncle Thomas.

Affirmative Action is only discrimination by another name. Sugar coating something doesn't change what it is. Affirmative Action is racist by it's very nature.

Rugrashhashass needs to discover a new video, he's only posted this one like a hundred times now.

Wonder if anyone a tually watched it.

It is time to end the Federal government's institutionalized racism. I agree with Thomas.

Agreed, and racialists know this and they're not letting go. AA is an advantage, that it is unfai doesn't matter.

Agreed but racialists much like the rest of the left want activist courts and government. Its empowering to them.

Correct. There is nothing wrong with Thomas' comments. How anyone can criticize his view is odd.

Not only is AA discriminatory but it does more harm than good.

Walter Williams, Cruelty to Black Students

...The most pervasive form of racial discrimination at most colleges is affirmative action. In the name of helping people from groups that have suffered past discrimination, colleges admit black students whose academic preparation differs significantly with that of their white peers. Those differences are not subtle. It should not come as a surprise that the intended beneficiaries of that "benign" discrimination feel themselves ridiculed, isolated and treated differently. As a result, students who might be successes in a less competitive environment are turned into failures. One faculty member at a historically black college put it this way: "The way we see it, the majority schools are wasting large numbers of good students. They have black students with admissions statistics (that are) very high, tops. But these students wind up majoring in sociology or recreation or get wiped out altogether."

...The academic elite feel righteous seeing blacks on campus, even if they are severely mismatched. Black people must ask: Are we going to sacrifice our youngsters so that white liberals can feel good about themselves?
