Where is it that the Asian student community cries for "EQUALITY," as you state in one of your posts? We, and I over generalized "we," have never asked for any handouts and usually have achieved whatever has been presented to us by our own merit and not because of some bullshite essay about how are yellow skin will bring us some green paper. And that crap about how we just show up to registration and graduation. Damn, I hope I don't land in one of those guys operating tables. I think that's alittle too exagerated...

Did i mention asians in one of my posts. If it was it was just referring to minorities as a whole. The asian students in my class are some of the smartest and hardest workers, they deserve to be there no argument from me.


As for the rest of this discussion, I think it spun a ways away from my original intent. It was not really affirmative action, but more that the grants and free money all went to minorities in my class and wasn't based on merit. In any case, discussion is great and even if I don't agree with some of you it's interesting to hear the point of view of someone on the other side of the fence.

I am a student at the University of Colorado at Boulder. One of the most liberal places in the US. I belong to the College Republicans here and we have recently done two parodys. Our first was conservative coming out day, an obvious paraody on gay coming out day. It was hilarious. Our next was an affirmative action bake sale. This caused a lot of media to come to the school and really pissed off the liberals and other diversity thugs. We sold cookies to whites and asians (an over represented minority in the college system) for $1, latinos .50, blacks .25 and if you're a minorty so pigeon holed you got them free. The school tried to shut us down and we threatened a federal lawsuit and they let it go on as long as we didn't sell, but request donations (under the 1964 civil rights act, you can't base prices on race). The bake sale lasted about two minutes and the arguments and protests lasted for days! It was great. Next we'r planning to roast a pig in front of our main library on earth day.

and to think I spent all my college years trying to get laid.

and not to be a "me, too" kind of poster, but I really agree with everything that kosar had to say (although substituting * for " irritates the shit out of me).

If people spent less time worrying about the deals other people got and more time worrying about their own situation and trying to make ^that^ better, then their lives would be much happier.
