Wow...there's some nonsense...59% of asians attain at least a BA whereas only 32% of whites do...

So...explain to me how it's so much harder for asians...If 59% of them get a BA, at least that many get accepted to college...
So if you're in the top 59% of asians, you get accepted...whereas, you have to be in the top 32% of whites to get accepted...
Your logic is really flawed.
Think about the competition Asians go through to get into college. Asian kids outperform other races when it comes to academics, thus the competition they have to go through when applying to college will be far greater.
The fact that more Asians graduating from college only further PROVES that the selection of high-performing Asians outperforms the number of high-performing whites or other races. According to this link Asians are less than 4% of the population but make up 20% of Ivy Leagues, and over 50% of many UC universities.

Yes, many get accepted, but the fact of the matter is, if there were NO affirmative action, Asians would be getting into college more and more. Because I guarantee the average GPA of Asians getting into college is much higher than the average GPA for any other race.
Apparently, there were so many Asians at the UC schools, that the UC board of admissions had to change their admissions policy so that LESS Asians were admitted into campus: http://www.chineseorjapanese.com/university-of-california-asian/
It's the most difficult for "average" Asians who have around 3.0 GPAs. Since the most likely Asians to be accepted will be those of the highest GPAs, an Asian with a 3.0 may not necessarily get accepted, while another race with a 3.0 would be a shoe-in. The fact that there's MORE Asians at university only proves that the competition is fierce, and that the Asians getting in are high-performers.

Men who have a fear of women who exert control of their sexualities, know that they wouldn't be able to control or easily manipulate women who are aggressive, dominant, or defiant. Women who refuse to passively cooperate or adhere to stereotypical gender roles. So they use social stigma and social shame and call us "sluts" to try to implant fear and guilt in us, in an effort to control and coerce our behaviors. It is a completely selfish philosophy that stems from the belief that they OWN women.
Thus, me taking control of my sexuality is my big way of saying "FUCK YOU" to the institution, and another "FUCK YOU" to the patriarchy!

It's not like they have a minumum GPA for asians and a different one for whites...
That's been illegal and unconstitutional since Gratz and Grutter...
The reason that more asians are admitted is because more of them meet the requirements...I'm sorry that dumb asians aren't admitted...but dumb white guys aren't either...
Again...there is no support for your statement that asians have a harder time getting into college...it's pure fiction.

Nowhere did I say that, did I?
I said it's harder for Asians because of the COMPETITION. Something which you admitted yourself. So an Asian with a 3.0 is not going to get accepted into a lot of the colleges that other races with a 3.0 would. I have a friend who is into UC Berkeley with a 3.4 GPA, because she was one of those races that UC Berkeley wanted at the time to "diversify the campus." Hah. Good luck being Asian and getting into UC Berkeley, even with a 4.0 GPA. Good fucking luck, cause you won't get in, that much I can say for sure. Asians who get into UC Berkeley are more into the 4.3 range and have multiple achievements and high SAT scores.
If this isn't true, please explain why else the UC's new admission policy would result in less Asians getting accepted, while more whites, Hispanics, and blacks would end up getting accepted instead? http://news.newamericamedia.org/news/view_article.html?article_id=0805ea5e933cd5dbcad88b4abb586d25

How is any of what I said racist?
What's racist is believing that some minority groups need special help, because their poor, and uneducated, or that they'll never be as smart or test as well as "you asians" (to use your own justifications for it). Or in other words your sport for affirmative action is racist. There are many prosperous Americans who aren't white, true story. I am an ethnic minority who would qualify for affirmative action, and I don't need the help. It's an insult to my ability to succeed & prosper

I think we should cut all the social parasites from their welfare checks. Then they will either find a means to support themselves or starve to death, either of wich is good for the economy and society.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

All you need to know about affirmative action you can learn from watching the movie How High.
