Is it just me or does afirmative action piss you off in the kind of way to the poi`nt where `you just `want t`o say wh`y not? Un`derprivale`dged kid`s in the `U`.S.A`. have `so man`y disa`dvantages` to `life c`ompaired `to e`very `sing`le `whi`te `pers`on, `becau`se just `becau`se we `are ``whit`e mak`es us` a `bi`t `more` pri`val`ed`ged` by `defau`lt. Its` sa`d to `say `but `its` t`he tr`uth`.

``I t`hink `that `the `ban `on` a`ffi`rm`ativ`e a`ctio`n s`hou`ld `be `ov`er`, it`s be`en `dra`ggin`g on `for` too` `lon`g an`d `som`eone `nee`ds `a cha`nce`. `It `cant` j`ust be `the `wh`ite `peop`le who `go `to `scho`ol`.` All `o`ther` `ra`ce`s ha`ve s`o m`uch` to `of`f`e`r to t`he `w`or```ld. The fight over equality and opportunity has been for nearly 400 years. I don't understand why it is so difficult to have a little bit of diversity as a campus. Yes, there may be a spot or two taken away from a more qualified student, but if that student can get into this school, that means they can get into another equally good and qualified school to teach them. Just quit this stupid act and stop being fucking racist you college administrator assholes.

Your Not a Poor Black Kid
I thought that the article posted by Forbes's Gene Marks was in many ways ridiculous and a little over kill on his part. Some ideas and things he said had truth and were good thoughts such as:
"But that doesn’t mean that the prospects are impossible for those kids from the inner city. It doesn’t mean that there are no opportunities for them. Or that the 1% control the world and the rest of us have to fight over the scraps left behind. I don’t believe that. I believe that everyone in this country has a chance to succeed."
But that was about it. He spent most of his time talking about the tools that he could use to succeed if he was a poor black kid in the inner city. But he didn't seem to be geared towards helping anyone, I got the impression he was just getting paid to post all of those different "tools" and websites like Skype, Evernote and Google Scholar. He was more of a bilboard than help. There are some ideas I agree on, like the one I posted above, and the ones President Obama said. But I think he expressed his ideas and thoughts of large amount of stupidity that poor black kids carry. I don't believe that anyone, poor or rich, black or white, young or old, needs a fat, balding and middle aged man telling them how to succeed in life. And especially children from the inner city who don't have the resources your talking about. They may know exactly what they need to do but to do it is very difficult, more difficult than just going on the free computer that cool man from the architecture firm just gave you and your family for no apparent reason. I can't speak for any inner city child who doesn't have it as good as others, or me/people in the rich ass North Shore. I don't think it was Gene Marks place to speak about this topic. I think it rather should have been someone who has succeeded from the inner city like Gene talked about. Someone who actually made an example, not a middle aged white man who had everything handed to him.
I think he kind of deserves the comments and remarks he got. It wasn't his place to say those things.
