I approve of merit - if you got it you get the promotion.  I disapprove of quotas.  If I thought I got  a jobs only because I'm a woman and not because I could do it I be really pissed.  Can you sue for discrimination even if you're benefitting  ;)

I'm not sure if you can sue for any kind of damages for beneficial discrimination.  It's hard to prove, too.

Depends on the situation, though.  There was a barber shop in Loiuisiana when I was in the Air Force which refused to serve black patrons.  Even though it was closer than the barber shop I used, I never went there because of the discrimination.

You think a Southern barber shop filled with good ol' boys has a website, or even a bank that banks online?

Heh.  Don't count on it.

Unfortunately, they don't make that much money.  I mean, they're barbers, for God's sake.  Every cent goes into upkeep and personal salaries.  It's damn near a nonprofit business.  I'm all for the idea, though.  Also, however, I don't remember what they're called....

Also, they have no black or Asian customers, which, in that area of Louisiana, must truly hurt their business.  Barksdale AFB is right nearby.

My view of racism is a little different from most Americans, having lived in China for a few years.  In many countries, friendly -- yes, I mean friendly -- racism goes on all the time.  I mean, they don't discriminate against you because you are considered "a damn n***er" or an animal, or someone who has less worth as a human being than a white person, but because almost everyone they see is Chinese.  There's bound to be some racism, and even suspicion.

Unfriendly racism is ignorant, malicious, and barely worth my time to consider.

I could ask for a raise for 'Beating' a girl... but somehow I don't think it'll have the same effect.
