I didnt seem to have much of a problem with
hopelevre. think we may have got off on the wrong
foot initially, would assume that was due to the
beatings.

think I remember those days!

Well,if he posts regularly for 7 days without upsetting anyone,Reed Lover will go forever!!

I always keep my word....Wink

But what is the forfeit if he does continue?Confused

That's a ballsy bet. I'm sure you're an honest man in these situations.

How about the forfeit is... hmmm.... uhhhhhh... I'll give up and go on to bigger and better things? Maybe?

Nah.

The forfeit is that you wont allow yourself to be coerced by bullies on either side in future....LOL

Wink

I accept your offer, Mr. Lover.

I was having a go at DB.....................and this is a public forum,and private conversation should be done by PM.

did I say its not a problem, by offering jobs to minority
parents they are able to help with their childrens,
childrens, children to get a better education and be
better qualified. you offered a different viewpoint, I
offered mine.

Theres none so blind ..............

You said:

many other reasons can be sited for the problems
with American productivity than under qualified
minorities. this seems to be a narrow viewpoint you
are representing.
reverse discrimination doesnt have much of a leg to
stand on yet! maybe you are young and facing
adversity and blaming it on lack of opportunity?

ADVERSITY BREEDS CHARACTER

agreed , but i do not believe that the current system does anything near to that, and i believe it does serve in fact to create reverse discrimination...i think the effort should go toward the communities and schools these groups come from in order to get them to a place where they can be more qualified than the white guy is, or consistently as qualified rather

I think the current system is the fairest for all!. If you
want to have freedom for all then if one race is
coming from a lesser opportunity you should
balance the scales. Bringing opportunity to those
who have less of a chance. Why should a certain
race or class represent the outcast. Easy to point
your finger at races or groups when you put them all
in the same box, a better test is to see how you wear
his shoes.

The major problem that I see is that corporate
America fills all the minority jobs(90%) at the
workforce level, leaving the trouble of working
together through differences at the worker level. The
old we'll hire em but they arent working with me
attitude. If you are going to proclaim equal rights it
should be at all levels.
