Affirmative action discriminates against whites. Nothing about being jealous. It's the truth.

You have no idea as to how affirmative action works.

IIRC, you live in Canada, correct?

Waiting on your answer. Show that you performed just as well or better than her.

Why are you so bothered?
1. She's a in general.
2. She's wrong on this particular question.
3. She's committed the impeachable offense of exercising her freedom of speech, thereby "interfer[ing] with the judicial system".

Wow, so now you have to make up stories about other posters. I’ve never lived in Canada a day in my life.

By definition, affirmative action discriminates against whites. That is the whole point.

Not making up stories. Apparently, I was mistaken as to where you live.

As for affirmative action, you seem to think that before affirmative action came into existence, no minorities ever attended college nor were they able to enter the ranks of the middle and upper classes. If you think that, then you are wrong.

My father got into college, entered a white collar field and had a long and successful career in the federal government. He did all this before there was affirmative action. And, yes, he was a minority.

Yes, she is. And I turned down Princeton and went elsewhere.

Thanks for asking, even though the question is offensively stupid. Princeton and Yale practice anti-white discrimination, so the fact that this woman (who says she isn't white for reasons she hasn't explained) got into those schools because the admissions standards for people like her are far lower then the admissions standards for whites.

Not due to performance as you all so eagerly imply. She was the valedictorian of her high school.

She's an appellate court judge. She can dissent, and publish her views along with the decision. Nothing wrong with that--it may not happen every day, but it happens often enough that legal scholars know to watch for it. It may help somebody in future matters, or it may not.

In other words, her dissent is not unusual. This is how appellate courts work--not every judge agrees with the other judges, and those who disagree with the majority can publish their views in the decision. That's what she did.
