Did I say I liked LaShawn Barber?
What a gift for words the woman has. This one sentence from a post a couple of days ago just destroys affirmative action:
"I can say with 99.9 percent certainty that those who endured billy club beatings, lynchings, firehose spray, and dog bites didn’t do it so that one day their children and grandchildren could be deemed pitiable, too inferior for equal treatment, and too dumb to strive for the American dream on their own merits."
If only LaShawn had been on the Supreme Court instead of Sandra Dee, er... Day, when Gratz/Grutter were decided.
