    take a genetically superior child and raise him by wolves
    take a genetically inferior child and put him through 16 years of Jesuit education

    which one would be the superior GOP candidate?

    Somewhere, a tool shed is missing a saw that couldn't cut butter.

    But do we have affirmative action for sports teams?

    Why do people keep bringing race into this?

    Anyways, yes. Title 9 is a form of affirmative action.

    It should not be at all surprising that an individual has some baseline "intelligence" due to genetic. It is beyond stupidity to think that that baseline is static or has such a narrow range that nothing else other than genes matter.

    God loves jcee15 so much he gave him extra intelligence genes -- so many in fact it formed an additional chromosome.

    What is your background on medical/genetics research? You sound like a giant misinformed r****d. I don't have the time to list countless articles/sources to refute your line of logic, but do a simple pubmed search or ask people more knowledgable than you are.

    Which is what makes this thread gold. Needs to go into the D&D all time list.

    Are D&D quotes still banned in sigs? I'm stunned that people like this exist.

    Dude is a white supremacist or a troll. I'm all for being able to state your opinion, but that kind of thinking drags this site down and should be banned.

    No, but college is about preparing millions of actors in an industrialized economy for specialized roles, particularly in wake of declining value for manufacturing and manual labor. Colleges were splitting atoms and designing radar systems back when they only took scions and senators' kids: and no blacks or Asians, because the system, protocols and facilitators created a mechanism that allows any genuinely motivated and conscientious person to engage the curriculum while growing and building upon it.

    Sports no longer have affirmative action in the form of racist leagues or biased coaches, because white males found less risky or taxing ways to go to college or be famous, and if you're going to dehumanize blacks you might as well see some neat animal tricks.

    As far as that kind of thinking dragging this site down the D&D has already been sinking for years. Cutting a couple of concrete blocks from it isn't going to make it rise any faster.

    As I said in the other thread I hope that he isn't banned. As I said having someone who is unabashedly racist puts a lot of things in perspective.

    Dunn why jcee15 is being attacked so much over a news report.

    Surprised at how many people can't discern the difference between knowledge and intelligence.
