Some of us are better than other in certain ways and visa versa. The thing that people seem to ignore is that we're all people and we all deserve to be TREATED equally. Just because those black firefighters couldn't pass the test thats no reason for the white firefighter to not be promoted. He was clearly qualified for the position if he could pass the test. This is a big problem in America and its sending the wrong message to our children.
we're all individuals with different mental and physical abilities but we all have
an equal right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. that's what they
mean when they say we're all equal.
justanotherbozo Reviewed by justanotherbozo on . How is this not covert racism? I was reading my university newspaper today and there was an article about awards being given to black students with a 3.5 GPA or higher their freshmen year and a different award for black seniors with at least a 3.5 GPA. Now, why exactly should black students get a special award? Isn't that basically saying, "Look, we don't think as a race you are as intelligent and capable as the other students, therefor, we will give you something if you get at least a 3.5 GPA." WTF? How are they not Rating: 5
