Yep. I agree. Education is broken. I'll never forget something my geography teacher said: "Education has become a commodity, to be bought and sold, rather than a service that should be available to everyone."

Rich people get scholarships for the reasons you listed way too much, and also because so many schools just love money now and like when rich parents give it to them.

And with that, this post has become completely off topic. Though I at least dont regret actually returning to this thread, which must mean something positive.

Also, forgot to make a comment earlier, some schools and jobs probably have minority percentages because given the choice, many places probably just wouldnt hire any minorities at all.

Reverse racism is the new thing

They should just make it so that black policemen are allowed to only shoot blacks, and white policemen shoot whites, and the problem is solved...
...because obviously nobody thinks that the problem is policemen shooting people at will in any situation...

Dont be silly, racism is the answer for every question.

How do you think I passed my math final?

Know what is hell to pay back? A mortgage. Student loans are nothing compared to that. Or as the other poster said, get a job and pay for your further studies.

Why don't police (wo)men learn to shoot arms and legs btw? Always killing people when they suspiciously move, easy to say it was necessary.
I get that in the US shooting and guns are alright to defend yourself but, really, tone it down a bit. Mistakes happen but nobody should be shot to death instantly.
I don't really care about who gets shot or where or what they've done. If you really are in danger, disarm or k.o. the suspect. Having the gun at hand is a great advantage compared to "suspicious" movements that are necessary for the suspect to grab a weapon and attack first. Just shouting "police! stand still or I'll shoot!" (if at all) doesn't work. People might even move and look suspicious because they panic when hearing words like that or looking at the police and guns. Why kill them right away instead of aiming at extremeties when they could be innocent? When I think about it I could end up thinking it's because you don't want to pay for their lives when it turns out they were innocent and you made them be handicapped or prisons are too full/expensive..

100% this ^

tag for later

You basically answered yourself with prejudice. I have no problem with policies that Help poor people achieve better competition for opportunities against rich guys. But that have nothing to do with race, why should a rich black have access to these privileges and a poor white don't? Are swe saying a poor white have better chances and opportunities than a rich black?

And you ignored I wasn't singling black civil rights fighters, but feminists, gayzists, atheists, etc.

I am aware of profilling and that black officers also profile black, is he racist against himself? Most cases I see in profilling is towards attire and attitude (gangsta and hip hop kind) than pure color. I never saw no one profilling a black guy in suit going to work or church. Usually the profilling comes from black guy being in a majorly white neighborhood and whites on black.

But yes, let's reduce all towards race and hate.

Because a mob of white people didn't riot because white people in the United States don't see themselves as being a singular group, but rather as a stratified group defined by economic status.

Unless that unarmed, white youth came from a wealthy, well-to-do family of high enough social stature, there's not going to be any backlash if he's shot by a law enforcement officer, regardless of whether said LEO was white, black, asian, hispanic or other.

Also because the shooting was in all probability, not racially motivated. There is no profiling of white people by black law enforcement officers of any note.
