So a white male who is passed over for a job, or position, or promotion, or college by a less-qualified minority isn't being by definition violated?
Got it.
Problem is, you don't know that the minority that white male was "passed over" in favor of was actually less qualified. White males just assume they are the best qualified for any position in life, when in many, many cases they are clearly not.

The funny thing is a certain type of conservative "always" spews this kind of nonsense but they provide zero evidence. I would be curious as to who exactly (by name) was passed over by a minority less qualified. With side by side resumes for proof. The funny thing is that will never happen! Conservative arguments break down once you start digging into specifics...
There are protective laws for about everyone else.
Yes, there are some laws that protect minorities from white males. Thankfully, it was intelligent white males who understand inequality and the need to protect "everyone else" from the majority that strove to assure justice and equality for all - not just white males.

And you don't think the reverse happens? All these claims of poor overqualified white men losing jobs to under qualified minorities is cute, but lack proof. It's nothing more than whiny people complaining why they got turned down for a job. It's so rough being a white man in the 21st century. Boo ****ing hoo hoo, cry me a river :-P.

They really can't because no job is going to disclose why they hired someone over another person.

Stop stereotyping.
I am liberal and I do not hate white males. And I had never witnessed anything you claimed happening at work place.
And since when white males are the most successful part of species in the history of humanity? In western hemisphere only perhaps? Such an insular view!
If you want to stereotype, I can do the same about you (although I know better that this does not apply for all Republicans): only right-wingers have insular views that white males are the most successful part of the species in the history of humanity. How do you like that?

No. I'm talking about the little guy, the poor, lower- and middle-class whites that are screwed over in college entry and for the firefighter and police chief positions for minorities that get the positions for no other reason than they are minority.
There are example after example of that happening more and more in recent years.
