I'm all for AA. Since Mexicans are now the majority in Houston, I'm now a minority. When do I get my check?
Did you know that it is impossible to win a contract with the City of Houston unless the company bidding is minority owned? Really despicable.
The City of Pasadena, outskirts of Houston, actually lowered the test standards to become a fireman there because not enough minorities were passing the exam. Several years ago, when my brother had graduated from the academy and applied with the city, only 2 people passed the city's exam in one month (or week, I forget). Both of the men were white. The city refused to hire either of them and instead lowered the standards so minorities with lower scores could get the jobs. I hope those sub-standard firemen are the ones putting out the fires at houses of every supporter of AA. See how they like the sub-standard service from the people they forced to be hired.
All AA does is make the rest of us look down on minorities. They are not helping their case at all.
There is no longer the kind of discrimination in this country that there once was from 'our' side. Now, we are the ones being discriminated against, and we're not going to stand for it too much longer.
