Well, considering minority scholarships and stuff of the like that may be true.

well it wasn't just that, but it was a national story a couple years ago about michigan's admittance policy. they had this point system and if you were black, you got a huge amount of points where whites got 0 points, and being that i was on the fringe, their were blacks with lower gpa's getting accecpted and the reason i was turned down was not enough extra caricular activity, even though i played 3 sports in high school //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Yes, of course the odds are greater. You want to know why? Beacause there are more non-blacks in this country than there are blacks. So, for example, lets say every American works, and the ratio of non-blacks to blacks is 4 to 1 (80%/20%). If the workforce was populated evenly 1 to 1 that would mean that, based on a set of 10, 6 non-blacks would be unemployed for every 2 blacks hired. That doesn't sound very fair to me.

So, yes, of course there are more white people getting jobs, because more white people are applying for them. Dumbass.

I'm saying if 4 whites and 4 blacks came in for an interview, same qualifications, etc. who would get the jobs? The hites probably. But I'm really not trying to go there. I thought this post was about a word.

at my school they decided to start a basketball program so they go to detroit to recruit players, mind you the big ten heavily recruits that area, then you have mac schools so you get bottom of the barrell talent going to a community college. now they are all black and the crime rate on campus has doubled, they are all on academic probation, they wonder through the halls, with gang like clothing listening to ipods yelling ***** and ******. kinda funny actually cause they are so out of place //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

So you are racist and a coward? You probably wouldn't laugh in their face or tell them or anyone else your size or bigger that they are out of place, but you will come on a forum and talk bad about them.

he said the odd's are greater for a white person to get a job over a black person(which is wrong, btw), not that there are more white people working than blacks

it's easier to get better job if your black because there are not as many blacks in the us...most companies have a certain number of minorities that they have to hire

There's a difference in doing a comedy routine and saying ******, honkey, wetback, dunecoon or what have you, it's another thing to verbally assault an audience member in that manner.
Some of you ****ers are blind.

exactly

this is the first post in this thread that makes sense

it's not even a fine line in the sand, there should be a HUGE, vividly apparent difference

comedians get away with saying things like that because in the context of a joke, the meaning behind the words is diffused, but this wasn't a joke, he was actually pissed, he actually MEANT to try and hurt the guy

Well then you should keep your opinions to yourself and not come on a message board talking bad about somebody you wouldn't tell you had a problem with. Your like a girl whispering to somebody else about a person's outfit or hair or something. But anyway ya'll are grown and your opinoins good or bad won't change so I'm done arguing.

shit man, stuff like that happens all over the place. on somewhat of a slippery slope, if i ever become president im abolishing affirmative action and mandating that welfare be issued similar to unemployment. you cant get your act together in so many months? tough fucking luck.

If you didn't want to go there you wouldn't have posted. Honestly, I'm going to have to agree with you on this though. I don't think that accross the board whites would sweep the blacks, but it's probable that whites would more than likely snatch up the jobs. Why? Because they generally carry themselves in more of a reserved business manner. I know what youre going to say so save it, there are exceptions to every rule...but you must remember we are speaking in generalizations. Whites are hired for high end jobs because they know how to manipulate money, history proves it. Sure corporate whites are, for the most part, pieces of shit, but that's another discussion right there.

It's sad. In order for a black man to get ahead he must "act white" is what it comes down to. But what is "white"........?
