Default Justice Prevails Over Racism

WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court has ruled that white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., were unfairly denied promotions because of their race, reversing a decision that high court nominee Sonia Sotomayor endorsed as an appeals court judge.

Now if they can ban the term "White Mother F-cker" just as the have banned the "N" word, justice and equality might really fall into place.

Soto Mayo is a sneaky dangerous Racist.

Yeah, but ..... she had a tough life growing up.. How 'bout little empathy, eh!!!! Her life was so bad when she was growing up, she should be made president after Obama, and given a life-long salary of $10 million a year just for being who she is.

I agree the best candidate's should get promoted... I just like breaking Harry's balls.

I find it hilarious that the (far)right have no trouble spotting a case of racial bias, so long as it's being levied against the white man... but fail (or refuse) to recognize any racial injustice (short of slavery) when it concerns a minority.

I have always recognized racial injustice I lived through it, I saw it first hand, in my day the "N" word was used at the dinner table all over the country.

What that Racist Hag Sotomayo did in her court decision was cruel, insulting and blatant RACISM, she was telling those Minority Fire Fighters they were to stupid to pass the test, she was telling them that the "Whites" were smarter than they were, she is a cruel nasty racist scumsucker.

The smartest of the Whites will get the prize.
The smartest of the Minority's will also get the prize
That is true Diversity & Equality

JUSTICE AND EQUALITY FOR ALL

Justice prevails.. the decisions are 93 pages long, so that passes the litmus test for credibility.. the Supreme Court Rules.. others will agree with this decision and laud it, while in other decisions they speak crap..

The scary part is that this was a 5-4 decision. That boggles the mind. I'm also concerned with reading that Title VII, which caused this issue of discrimination against the minorities from the test results, basically says that if too few minorities, or too many white people if you want to look at it that way, score good/bad (in other words, if white people do really well, and minorities do really bad), then it means the test was discriminatory. Say what? That is baffling to me. How can a test be so generically deemed discriminatory from it's results? Shouldn't it be the specific content that would determine that? Maybe I'm missing something, which is certainly possible.
