How can a test be racist?? Discuss.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, you've been living under a rock. Of particular interest to me,what Justice Kennedy said when questioning the attorneys today. Would your argument be the same if all minorities passed the test and no white people?? Kind of puts it in perspective for me.

Once we start catering to a specific group of people, we will be catering to every individual group from now on. It's like pandora's box. It is not racist to have standards and if you can't meet those standards maybe you don't deserve the promotion in the first place. Affirmative action needs to come to an end. At first, I could maybe condone it's use because their was a point in time when NO ONE would consider black people, or other minorities, for certain jobs. I don't think it's like that now. There is no "true" way to prove "discriminatory intent" and the best man doesn't always get the job because employers are so scared to death of being sued. This isn't what the legal system was meant for and it needs to stop. I hope the Supreme Court does the right thing. However, with the government now a days I have a feeling I will probably be disappointed in June when the decision comes out. We'll see!!
