Translation: It does not matter if you are better qualified the priority is having BLACK people working there. We want people hired based on RACE not QUALIFICATION.

Don't you think a race of people that flew to the moon thousands of years ago know a little bit about flight?

It doesn't matter if the airplanes can fly or the rockets go up without blowing up as long as lots of kneegrows are hired for jobs above their capabilities.

I don't need to comment on this, the three realists above me pretty well took the keystrokes out of my fingers.

If this goes through, I will probably never fly on a Boeing product.

So, you have to be a minority to qualify for "fair and equal"? So how is it "fair and equal" when skin color is a determining factor in getting a job?

A test should be given as usual, the person who gets a higher score and passes a BACKROUND check should get the job, but that wont happen, no blacks would get the job.

None would even bother to apply if they knew they would have to REALLY qualify.

Wow. How is it that some whitec cxlaim that blacks take jobs away from them and then on the other hand accuse blacks of being lazy and not willing to work. Dumbasses, you can't have it both ways. Get your lies straight.

After we changed to a new computer system in the hospital where I work,we had to train to use this new system and after I scored higher than a white female co-worker, she replied to me,"I know you didn't score higher than I did on that test". However I did score higher than she did and by 20 points too. She made an 80 and I made a perfect score of 100. For some reason she found this amazing that I, a black man scored higher than she did. She actually got an attitude that I had done better on the test than she had. She needs to realize that all whites are not smart and all blacks are not dumb. Contrary to popular misconception, there are some blacks that are much smarter than whites.

In a free country, an employer would be able to hire and fire an employee for any reason he so chooses. Of course we live in a fascist country.

Typical. You cannot refute what I said so you result to the ad hominem.

Daily Horoscope for December 27

Scorpio

If you haven't seen certain people during the past few days, how about inviting them over for a drink or a meal? You're feeling sociable and will enjoy doing some light entertaining although you'll draw the line at anything too strenuous. It's a lovely day for being in familiar surroundings with some familiar faces, even if all you do is flop on the sofa.
