Is Affirmative Action ethical?
In some way does it perpetuate the myth that women and minorites cannot compete without special preferences?
Does it in ANY way discriminate against white males?

it's a paradox in its nature...
They are asking for equality while placing emphasis on our differences.
but two things we should get rid of.... Affirmative Action and Indefinite welfare
The initial reasons for the organizations were valid but have grown wild sense.
another thing that annoyes me is that I blacks for example feed the idea of discrimination so much that you start to believe that they are different.
Do they think it's good that they constantly point out our differences.
If were equal then should they just shut up already....
they've been nagging for decades.
back to you question.... the singling out of races for special programs does discriminate again whites and again does point out to the point that they are different ( if we were equal then we would have no special affiliations and programs)
Whites don't get to be represented in this way
and what about BET television
What about WET
a common argument is that "oh tv is already for whites"
well we didn't come out like racist and flat out create our own station, what hypocrits.... ...it's reasons like this that we never will be thought of as equals.... and again, it's in part their fault for fueling the fire.
just makes no sense.
it's discriminatory and a bunch of BS

The definition of ethical is "conforming to accepted principals of right and wrong." Th e accepted principals in this country clearly give white males a dissadvantage. It also makes fools out of the rest of us for feeding into it.

it does now, the ruling is no longer effective and should be done away with. I give the oppertunity to the most deserving person without regards to sex or race. Its time we all grew up and moved on in this world.
