Yes, the Supreme Court just decided last week that it is  still OK to
discriminate against white males to  make up  for past discrimination
by white males.  Of course  the white  males that  are being discrim-
inated against now are not the same ones that  did the discrimination
then.    How  does  that  go,  "with  liberty  and  justice for all"?
Hogwash.  It is legal  (and in  many cases  required) to discriminate
against white males between 18 and 40.  Everyone else is a minority.

This wonderfully enlightened decision follows  close on  the heels of
the Supreme Court decision to uphold a law that can  sentence gays to
20  years  in jail  for making  love.   Makes you  wish supreme court
justices were elected officials.
