You really do not either know how AA works or do not understand people. AA was designed to KEEP companies from hiring just their familiars and provide diversity throughout the work place. The only way that a company would pass on a qualified white person over an unqualified black/woman or whatever is because of their past hiring practices of hiring all whites and they want tax breaks or some other insentive from the government. No company will last long if they just hired unqualified people based on their race, this is a lie that is spread by the ignorant racist who do not want to see any diversity in their workplace. What companies do now is that they hire minorities to low paying positions and keep them out of the boardrooms and thus satisfying their diversity requirements.
So I ask you knowing what you do now, why are you so concerned about low waged positions when the executive suites throughout the country are still predominately white?
Its none of ANY government bodies business how or who a business hires. If I had owned a business I would have ignored the SOB's and hired who I wanted.

Just like there are Italians who don't act like the clowns on Jersey Shore,West Virginians who don't like the idiots on BuckWild,and Georgians who don't act like the idiots on Honey Boo Boo...but do you see those shows being canceled? They have all been protested against,a sitting US Senator asked MTV to not air BuckWild it was ignored....I don't care who has a show....But if they are going to cancel that one then cancel all of them like it.
I didn't even know until now that A&E stood for Arts and Entertainment. I have never seen any art on that channel. TLC used to be good, when I was a child. Even the Travel Channel has gone down hill since the early 2000(somewhere around 2002). Most of what comes on the Travel Channel isn't that good. Maybe this is why I haven't bothered to get cable TV since 2009.
TV has gone down hill for years. Stuff like "All My Babies Mamas", "Honey Boo Boo", "Jersey Shore", and "Buckwild" are all proof of this.
The Science Channel is pretty good. I like Dark Matters: Twisted but True. It's over dramatic, but entertaining.
Hey, that's pretty cool.
I wasn't looking forward to the flak I was set up to receive just because some guy who happens to share my skin color lives a lifestyle that is controversial.
4 wives/17 children.
Only one marriage is legal- not that it matters.
It doesn't matter because he is the right persuasion for the occassion. I'm all for polygamy as long as the parties involved can take care of themselves and their children. Unfortunately, there have been cases of polygamists and their "wives" taking advantage of public assistance. How is that any different than having a bunch of baby mamas you can't care for?
Get a petition against him as well. His show used to be better until this DNA testing stuff came about. To be honest, it's embarrassing. Most Black people that I know do not behave like this. Basically, the Maury Show is basically the Jerry Springer Show(albeit less violent).
We also need to figure out what to do with BET.
So instead of simply not watching it, you also want to keep other people from watching it?
As a white male I really don't care for the way members of my group are casts as the sickest of the sickos on programs like CSI, Cold Case and The Closer, among others.
Seems the only people capable of playing a convincing child molester, kiddie porn trafficker or serial rapist on these shows are middle-aged white males.
I don't like it, but who am I to censor what others may see?

If you have no contracts with the government and do not want any tax breaks, sure you can hire whoever your little heart desires.
Taking the show off the air doesn't really change anything. Maybe it just needed a better name. I really don't know.
Nope, the content is still the same
