Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- My comment on SCOTUS:
SCOTUS justices are supposed to have, and exercise, an ability to “put aside” personal, political views, and rule rightly based on our Constitution.
For one, I don’t like to talk about “gay rights,” nor “black rights,” nor “Hispanic rights,” ad nauseam
I just like to talk about “rights” of individual Americans!
Jews are “over-represented” in law schools, and medical schools.
Asians are “over-represented” in police departments.
Blacks are “over-represented” on professional basketball and football teams
Homosexuals are “over-represented” in the arts and media
Catholics are “over-represented” at Catholic universities.
So what?
I love “equal opportunity,” and then standing back and letting chips fall where they may, “Natural Selection,” if you will.
Some will find success. Some won’t. Some will live long. Some will die early. Some will contribute greatly to the advancement of our civilization. Some will contribute nothing.
But, liberals are obsessed, not with equal rights, but with “equality of outcomes,” the socialist “utopia.”
When Americans of Asian decent are “over-represented” at Harvard University, for example, “special privileges” must be extended to other racial groups, in order to “make everything equal.”
Asians are harmed in the process, through no fault of their own, but such real and unjust harm is piously ignored by liberal administrators who justify their crimes with self-righteous platitudes laced with “… for the greater good,” ad nauseam.
Yet, artificially interfering with free choice in an effort to make figures and “ratios” come out according to some pre-contrived “standard,” only harms the innocent, as we see.
When SCOTUS rules against such contemptible crimes, they’ll enjoy my support.
Free citizens must have “the freedom to fail” It is the most important freedom we have. Any law that heaps special privileges upon any minority, penalizes and harms all who are not members of that group. Thus, any law that singles-out any minority for special privileges is just as bad as if it had singled them out for special harm.
I trust any righteous SCOTUS justice will hate such laws.
I’m a promoter of equal opportunity, not “special opportunity.” It’s not “utopia,” but it is as close as we’re going to get.

The liberals are not about equality, if they were they would give all the money they don’t need to support the under privilaged or lazy. They would tear down their 12′ walls around their mansions, Disneyland would open the gates to free admission. Everything the liberals push for is something their not willing to do themselves.
But, but, but the democrats are pushing to have more racial divide in schools and work. Look at N.Y. and the stupid stuff they are doing to Asian students. It is very possible the parents of these students have worked with their kids to get them to study and have responsibility and that helps them achieve in these schools. Come to think about it the democrats have always used racism to further their agendas.
This is why race and the support of racial equality is an absurd and fictitious construct that will do nothing more than divide and undermine equality. If we want equality we will remove race from our forms and our vernacular.
I agree 100%, this country is based on the efforts of individual freedom. Whether they be African, Asian, European, Mexican or any other person in this country, we are blessed to live in this great country under life liberty and the pursuit of happiness as an individual. The Founding Fathers consider and wrote a constitution based on all people are minorities not just what someone from the government says are minorities.
