Supreme Court Declares Affirmative Action In Education Unconstitutional

The Supreme Court declared affirmative action programs at public and private colleges and universities unconstitutional on Thursday in a decision written by Chief Justice John Roberts.

The decision puts an end to most systems designed to help Black and Latino students access higher education after centuries of racial discrimination. Colleges and universities will no longer be allowed to seek greater diversity of their student bodies by preferencing race, although student applicants will not be precluded from discussing their race during the application process as it relates to their individual experience. The most immediate effect will be a decrease in the number of Black and Latino students admitted to the most selective schools, studies show.

In his opinion, Roberts stated that schools are not permitted to judge candidates for admissions based on their race.

“Many universities have for too long done just the opposite,” Roberts wrote. “And in doing so, they have concluded, wrongly, that the touchstone of an individual’s identity is not challenges bested, skills built, or lessons learned but the color of their skin. Our constitutional history does not tolerate that choice.”

And if no, would you blame him for lying, saying that his parents do not support Putin?

Of course that guy is not with them.

This is one of those things, that makes me uncomfortable when being asked, to which I reply with a simple "This question makes me uncomfortable but rest assured I intend to keep having no affiliation nor business with that matter".

White guy sobs for getting a black man arrested. The black man was brandishing a knife and threatening to stab his family to death.

Been seeing articles like this when it comes to white liberals. For example, there was a story like 1 week ago where a white woman was killed by a black man. The woman's friends were protesting to have the black man free because the dead woman would not have wanted that for him.

free speech - the right to express any opinions without censorship or restraint.

This website is clearly against it

I was travelling around Europe. I come from a very rich family and a man was harassing me.

if I was travelling with bodyguards I would be 1000% safe. I wouldn’t have to deal with these interactions. I’m 6’2 and big and I was harassed by a man with no sense of reality.

The Mayor of NY used the phrase "National Crisis"...

“With over 50,000 asylum seekers currently in our care and a total of over 81,200 asking us for care since last spring, New York City continues to do more than any other city or level of government to address this national crisis,” said Adams in a statement.

I've heard from more than one democrat on this site there is no immigration crisis. So what is it... is the Mayor right or is this some kind of right wing propaganda?

I have to wonder what your news feed looks like...

Maybe CNN is wrong?

I know, I know... this question is badly formulated... but think about the outcome of the humanity.

Jesse Watters Says Obama Doesn't Look At Things 'From An American Perspective'

Fox News host Jesse Watters on Monday accused former President Barack Obama of “never really looking at things from an American perspective.” (Watch the video below.)

Watters was named Tucker Carlson’s permanent replacement in the channel’s 8 p. m. time slot, but held his usual spot on “The Five” when he criticized Obama’s take on the Titan submersible tragedy.

Obama told CNN that news coverage of the Titan implosion that killed all five aboard dwarfed that of a shipwreck of migrants off Greece that killed hundreds. “In some ways it’s indicative of the degree to which people’s life chances have grown so disparate,” Obama said after noting that “obscene inequality” was threatening democracy.

Watters didn’t mention false far-right claims that Obama was not born in the United States, but he seemed to dance around them.

“When you are a citizen of the world, you always think about the world instead of the United States,” Watters said. “Remember, this is a guy whose father has roots in Africa. This is a guy who spent a lot of his childhood in Southeast Asia … and then spent a lot of time in Hawaii.” He noted that Hawaii, Obama’s place of birth, was the last to earn statehood.

“He’s never really looking at things from an American perspective,” Watters continued. “He’s always speaking to the world. Even when he’s speaking to us, he’s appealing to the world.”

Watters said the intense interest in the submersible stemmed from the Titanic angle, the perceived suspense when those aboard were thought to be running out of oxygen, and the drama’s proximity to the United States.
