I don't see how your post shows that people are not treated - JeffB MU

- 7/10 19:54:37

See, I didn’t say they weren’t treated differently. - haeffb MU - 7/10 20:05:17

lthey don't have the same rights from gvmt. - 90Tiger STL - 7/10 20:21:23

- 7/10 20:15:03

I think it’s a bad thing - haeffb MU - 7/10 20:23:17

Glad you agree that rights are not the same in the US (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 7/10 20:25:52

lol - so you say you disagree that they have protections the - 90Tiger STL - 7/10 19:05:31

I said I disagree they are rights I don’t have. - haeffb MU - 7/10 19:52:28

Affirmative Action is NOT protection of the same rights - 90Tiger STL - 7/10 20:27:34
