It really has gotten out of control, and we should all band together and find a way to do something about it because nobody should have to go through life being that disadvantaged in so many ways. How can anyone ever have any reasonable expectation of success, what with so many strikes against them before they even get started?
It's a testament to your fortitude that you've managed to overcome all of your inherent disadvantages, joeydb, and because of that example you've set and the incredible courage you've shown in refusing to be kept down and never taking no for an answer, I'm glad to say that I'm proud to share this internet space with a true American success story and hero like you.

Wow, no "white, straight, able-bodied man" (you're guessing on all counts) should bother sticking up for himself, or consider not taking the B.S. of any countergroups because, why, it hurts your feelings?
If you feel threatened by (gasp) someone challenging all this political correctness, I guess it's really a house of cards. Wow, imagine if I were in elected office -- we could trash all this P.C. stuff overnight.
I don't need to be politically correct. "Political" is a qualifier of sorts -- I'm just correct.
Interesting that the colleges have "Women's studies" and "Latino Studies" and others, but not "White Male" studies. Actually, they do. It's called "History".
I reject ALL of the group rights focus. The individual is where all rights reside, no matter what ethnic background, sex, lifestyle, whatever. But no individual should be penalized because of his or her background - not even the white ones.
Oh, and by the way, a group cannot claim equality and rely on preferences at the same time.
