Boy, did you glorious miss the point... Wow.... I re-read my post just to see if there was any way someone could make this type of comment based on my post. I not sure how you did.

It must be that this is what you personally think that anyone who supports Affirmative Action must feel about "white guys" before you even read my post... Fortunately there are people, like myself, who don't believe that. I am more towards the NFL model, in limited fashion, for any cause. Racial or otherwise.

Affirmative Action deals with race, but every tip of the scale, in any human, economic situation, can cause a contrary action to try to balance out. Sometimes it is natural (one leg it hurts so you lean on the other more for support) and other times it is forced (raising and lowering interest rates depending on what is needed)... All I am trying to show you is that this type of over-compensation occurs in everything we do in nature and life. Everything.. Affirmative Action, as a concept, is not new.

Now are you against that contrary action or the amount of the opposing action? They are two different arguments. Not sure which one you are arguing with wide sweeping statements like the one above.
