But, consider that racial discrimination has been a fact of life in this country for quite a long time (I won't b*** about so-many-hundreds-of-years any more, I promise!), and it simply will not go away on it's own. So I ask: Where *were* you people when it was minority people that were being discriminated against? Why is it that you will only complain about it when it seems to threaten *you*?? It seems to me that discrimination isn't discrimination; only *reverse* discrimination is discrimination.... Still trying to understand you people, Jobe (...!ssc-vax!jobe)
