Right, because correlation between race and criminal activity is a racist statistic, and so is any correlation between race and IQ, respect, professional attitude, or competence.

Well when they forced them to make bad loans in 1998 Community Reinvestment Act, it was a direct cause of the Great Depression.
Government telling businesses what to do is such a good idea.

Let's just say I'm certain banks are definitely afraid this is going to happen. Most big banks already have this and that "officer" is an executive level position to make sure banks meet their quotas.

Dems would put whites in gulags if they could get away with it.

You are right. We’ve been down this road before with disastrous results. Democrats have no sense of history or any common sense in general. Some of them however just want the power give-aways provide them with no care about the consequences. Some are just stupid.

Correctomundo. This does not hurt the major banks, this puts the clamps down on the smaller to midsized ones who are already struggling. Now they got to bring a Diversity Officer in (at executive salary and benefits). These people do not understand.

Sure they do! But you must ignore that and understand that this legislation is simply about forcing business to employ more of the craptastic graduates of public education.

Right now I'm managing our household and helping my Mom to handle hers and Wife helps her Mom handle hers. We spend most of our time having to do the bookkeeping for our moms and for the sorry employees of their insurance companies, their exterminators, manage the balancing of their insurance payouts and charges from every damned doctor's office in town all of which employee recent high school grads to handle their books and most of whom never get the data entry correct which leads insurance companies to be tardy on paying because the records don't match up.

It's infuriating because there seems to be an overwhelming lack of competence anywhere when it comes to billing and accounts receivable. My Mom paid Orkin in full for her termite bond and we just got through spending a few days getting that straight when they didn't credit her payment (which the idiots cashed) and were trying to bill her again with a late charge. He payment was made in person to their companies representative the day she signed up for the service. She was transferring because the Cooks Pest Control guy was claiming he sprayed her property when he had no access to the property without her. In other words a liar and thief that my Mom got fed up enough with to change companies at her expense in transferring the bond.

These damned morons are screwing up people's lives everywhere and they act like it's our responsibility to keep doing their damned jobs for them and then claim discrimination or abuse when a fed up customer chews their sorry ass out and asks their company to dismiss them.

So it's epically rampant and hiring people who can't count (even if they are honest), or worse are crooked, just to fill a damned quota is supposed to somehow make things fair? Please. And here's the news, the young whites coming out of high school are just as damned sorry!

They are all $2 pistols, they won't work and you can't fire them!

So you're saying they are doing exactly what they are being produced to do which is to sow discord and chaos. By the way, there is no such things as equality. There is always someone prettier, smarter, stronger, more athletic, more agile, more money, more possessions, more toys, better health, better this, more that. As for diversity and inclusion, that's not what the majority of minorities want at all. They want to be in control. They want to call the shots. They want to boot their foot on the necks of whites. It's a damn shame they had to suffer and endure discrimination, it really is but now they want others to suffer and be discriminated against. That certainly doesn't go for all of them, the rational ones who just want a fair shake and a level playing field and to be able to raise and support their families in safety and security and be considered as valuable contributors to our entire society have my utmost respect and admiration. Unfortunately it appears they are in the minority.

Unfortunately it appears they are in the minority.

I don't believe in equality in anything other than access. Ultimately we are responsible for our own education, its application, and our own effort.

This is why I have from its inception despised affirmative action. Duke Ellington got where he was because he applied his talent and abilities and worked damned hard to get there. We are all in competition with one another for what we can attain in life. Any government law or program that tries to job nature by setting a lower standard for success than another has applied to them is flawed and only produces a downward spiral in productivity, innovation, and invention. Therefore any such system merely retards the growth of a civilization.

People that understand this and apply themselves regardless of race succeed. People who want a position based on race will only be concerned with race. People who get a position based on ability will only be concerned with ability.

In a Democracy like ours where we claim that all are created equal we are speaking of being equal in that we all start with a life and what ever abilities we have. It does not mean anything will ever be equal. When a government mandates quotas based on race it creates inequities of race because the most able might be excluded so a less able person can attain something which their gifts were not suited to have. Such policies inevitably create more mistrust and hard feelings between races because these policies are inherently racist in and of themselves and can't help but to exacerbate natural racial tension.

It really went wrong with hate crimes. In a democracy where all are under equal protection of the law, meaning the law should function the same for any of us, calling a crime motivated by race as somehow being more heinous than one committed out of envy, or greed, or jealously is absurd. A crime is a crime and murder is a murder and they should be adjudicated as such and the penalties enforced and if justice as our law claims is blind then how the hell does race (an unequal distinction) or hate (simply one motive out of many) enter into a fair verdict and sentence? It doesn't.

Our country was set up for subversion by communists who need class warfare to succeed and can only foment it in a free society when favoritism is given to one group over another by the passages of such laws. Without them one guy gets what he has based on ability and one guy doesn't based on ability. Class, in order to create revolution, has to be distinguished and given privileges by the law. We had none of that as a Democracy because we didn't have royalty. Russia had Royalty. China had Royalty. To crack a Democracy you have to set up a special class of people to foment frustration and anger leading to conflict, and having laws that make it more illegal for one side to revolt and use violence than another (Hate Crimes) gives the elevation of status to the lower class as a tool to use against the successful, and that tool is given by the uber successful (think CEO's of Multi Nationals) who want to use the stupid in order to rule by proxy through them without interference from the well educated middle class.

And that is precisely what is happening here. The corporate elites have bought political favors, used their wealth to manipulate their people into our government bureaucracy and through the quota system to assure there are enough minorities that through privilege laws they can count on to be complicit in the disenfranchisement of the middle class, which just happens to always be the enemy of fascism, and that is what you call a system where the corporate industrialists, or tech gurus in this case, run the government through the lower class (see Adolf Hitler, Hideki Tojo with a very young Emperor, and Benito Mussolini).

The poor and inferiorly educated are used to destroy the middle class which seals the power of the upper class as the rulers behind the scenes since without their help and jobs the poor and stupid can't rule.

The Corporate Elites then structure all of the government's power behind promoting what is good for them rather than the nation and they use the military to impose their will.

The biggest threat to Corporate Elites are those in the white educated middle class who still believe in Constitutional Law and Individual Rights. That is why those Rights, the Constitution, and Faith in something bigger than self are all under attack, and with them every semblance of morality.

An amoral world is one that is perfectly set up to be exploited by the corporate robber barons, especially when the military industrial complex profits along with them including high ranking officers and politicians.

So TigerBlue4Ever, it's much larger and more pervasive than just affirmative action which is merely one of many laws that should have been stricken down by the SCOTUS.

And poor, mal-educated people, when constantly baited by the news, and by left leaning text books in grade school, will always follow through with hatred and vengeance when somebody else can be fingered to take the blame for all of their frustrations. And the ultimate irony is that they will be more enslaved by the corporate backers who fund them and promote them than they ever were by a middle class white male who was only concerned with doing what was best for his family and didn't give a second's thought to oppressing anyone. But stupid always winds up in servitude and power always wants more power, and the middle class is what they are, stuck in the middle.

Agreed completely. Trust me, if banks felt that making a loan will be profitable, they make the loan. And they don't give a damn about race, orientation, religion, etc.

The idiots will never learn with their social engineering bull****.

Diversity Officers add NO value to company performance, but you can be damn sure they will be a detriment to the company if the quotas they want are not met.

Do people realize that the level of meddling in the private sector that democrats want to do is not socialism or communism, but rather fascism?

If you had read my posts you would know that is exactly what I see it as. Paragraph 7 Post #11 of this thread.

Fascism usually sets itself up as the alternative to deal with communism, but must project a socialist or communist threat to seem appealing. Communism controls the means of production. Fascism happens when Business (the means of production) controls the government, usually by proxy. The progressive left is by nature fascist, but its policies appeal to the lower class and in either fascism or communism the middle class is attacked eliminating those with the education and means to fight back so that the either the state or business can control and use the lower class for its excuse to access power. Disarming the populace occurs next along with the nationalization of law enforcement in either case. So centralized authority usurps local control of policing and the people are left no weapons with which to oppose their new masters be they communist or fascist.

That's not remotely true. Social media has amplified the voice of less than ideal representatives of both white and black people. But in now way are they the majority of either.

As mentioned elsewhere, such a bill is redundant because banks already had such a position. What it will do it allow the gov't to further intrude into the private sector in an attempt to manufacture the results it is supposedly looking for.

In a democracy where all are under equal protection of the law, meaning the law should function the same for any of us, calling a crime motivated by race as somehow being more heinous than one committed out of envy, or greed, or jealously is absurd. A crime is a crime and murder is a murder and they should be adjudicated as such and the penalties enforced and if justice as our law claims is blind then how the hell does race (an unequal distinction) or hate (simply one motive out of many) enter into a fair verdict and sentence? It doesn't.

Smart and astute post. I make this point to anyone that will listen.

Thanks, we all need to do that!


Then why do blacks and other minorities get stiffer sentences for the same crimes?
