Read the definition of racism and come back to me. Maybe, if I'm bored I'll have a conversation.

I'll feel no comfort if an unqualified minority shows up and bungles his job just so long as racial quotas were filled.

Like I said. It's not racism if it's true. I didn't say it was anyone's fault but contrary to what you learned in school we are not all equal.

Affirmative action favors White women as much as Blacks. Not sure if you knew that bit of info.

Do you have any links to support this, or are you just theorizing?

I don't care. I don't want anyone "favored" on the basis of race, culture, gender, ethnicity, religion, etc. I want the best qualified person to get the job no matter if they're an Asian male, a black female, a transgender white, as long as they can pass all of the requirements and they are best for the job, hire them. AA is racist and sexist as it shows favoritism based and racial and gender lines.

Well I don't need to. Racism is what liberals scream when they can't argue their points and have to have some way of shutting people up.

since there are differences in human height, beauty, etc., etc., wouldn't it stand to reason that there are also differences in intelligence?
