The analysis in my second link compared the racial distribution of people shot by police to the number of felony arrests. If you just compare numbers to the general population then you'd have to say that men are grossly discriminated against compared to women because almost every person shot by the police is male. Likewise, counting graduates or jobs vs. the general population is meaningless. That could be an indication that the opportunity is less, but it could equally well be a result of many other factors. You'd have to show a predominance of cases where people with equal abilities do not get equal treatment. If you have such a link I'll be glad to read it (but I can't read the WaPo, it blocks me). As far as colleges, the federal government (you know, the one represented by the flag) has mandated diversity. Many states even have a de facto quota system that favors black applicants, and the Supreme court has allowed it. Businesses have a federal incentive to hire minorities too. Discriminating against the best available employee is a losing business practice. "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?" |
