Naval Academy sued over affirmative action admissions policy

Affirmative Action is not racist, per se. What it became was racial quotas - and that is racist.

Additionally, even the quotas part was historically necessary to balance out years of systemic racism. But that was then......

These days, affirmative action has become a way to hire less qualified candidates based on innate characteristics, such as skin color or ancestry. This has become the goal.

But if a plane is crashing, I don't want the best available <insert minority group here> pilot. I just want the best pilot available, regardless of any other attribute.

Affirmative Action served its purpose. IT’s continue use represents the bigotry of low expectations. It does not serve the nations best interests any longer.

I grew up until I was 14 overseas and was educated under their school systems.
In British schools it was about who was related to whom.
In Russia we were told NOT TO GET TOO FRIENDLY - with the other 8 year olds.
The French were mostly concerned about what year the wine was and what bakery made the bread after classes where no one paid attention because they were better home schooled during the weekends.
Germany was where I learned that the 'regular volk' never supported Hilter even as my father and mother took us to Magdeburg to visit her grandfather's boyhood home, where her grand uncles and aunts had been taken away to the death camps.
Spain was the place where people were concerned about how many years they could afford to send their children to school.
While the Phillipines - what schools? I spend the year in Guam so I could attend a school.

Imagine my confusion when I returned to mainland United States and found people were passed to the head of the academic line because of 'Affirmative Action.'
