It never has been a matter of if we discriminate or not. It's just a matter of who is doing the discriminating.

California is not a racist state, it's a lawless state!

When the governor of the largest state goes against the law and common sense by signing an illegal bill, big changes are needed.

When a state gives preferences to foreign invaders rather than it's own native born population, insanity has taken over!

The entire state government needs a good house-cleaning immediately!!

Is the entire population of California into S & M?

It sure seems like it to me!

California should come up with a single letter code to designate race, the lower the letter the "Whiter" you are so that an individual could be known "A Whitey Mulligan", "M Jose Lopez" or "Z Jessee Jackson". This way you would know who is who upon meeting or coresponding.

Would also make it easy to assign blame in civil rights crimes and asigning benefits.

DUH! Socialism = racism. :) Flame away.

[Gritty]

Kalifornia Democrats and other racists (but, I repeat myself) are on the same page as Heinrich Himmler!

Even if proposition 54 is passed it will never be allowed to stand. Much of this data is mandated by the Feds.

At a larger level, Prop 54 is a method of avoiding reality and confrontation. It pretends that if we close our eyes to the issues of race those issues will go away. They will not. Immigration and all the programs that require racial data aren't about helping minorities they are about disempowering whites. Prop 54 ignores the nature and goals of the system. Imagine Poles in 1941 going hat in hand to the German colonial government and begging them to cease classifying the inhabitants of Poland by race. The Germans fully intended to colonize Poland and wipe it off the face of the Earth as a culture and nation, even if a few "Aryanized" Poles managed to survive. No dicking around with words would have changed that ultimate reality.

In a recent issue of Science, Venter says that collection of race and ethnicity data ­ for clinical drug trials ­ could lead to "misleading and biologically meaningless conclusions." That's because "race" is a social, rather than scientific construct. "Instead of applying social categories," he wrote, we should be promoting obtaining scientific data. Color of skin does not work as a surrogate." In fact, he noted, several scientific studies have shown that there are more differences in drug responses within racial and ethnic groups than among them.

Total bollocks. Race is real, physical, concrete. It can be readily discerned by most 3 year-olds. The medical differences between races are real and well documented. The only result of ignoring those differences will be the deaths and crippling of millions, a price Mr. Venter, in his totalitarian zeal to uphold the party line, is bravely willing to accept. 400 years after Galileo, and a new religion is suppressing inconvenient scientific fact.

California is a racist state.

That's not my opinion. That's the implicit view of those who oppose a ballot measure that aims to end the odious practice in the Golden State of classifying people by their "race." Proposition 54 would forbid state and local government agencies in California from identifying individuals by their skin color for purposes of public education, public contracting, public employment and other government operations.

Foes of the measure, from Jesse Jackson to Cruz Bustamante, fret that California's nonwhite population somehow will be irreparably harmed if it is approved by the voters.

Arnold Schwarzenegger opposes Proposition #54.

Of course California is a racist state. Whites hire non-whites, who in turn, only hire their own races. Whites facilitate racism.

And Arnold Schwarzenegger - he, Jackson and Bustamante etc...all oppose this measure.

I cannot support Schwarzenegger for this (and other) stances he holds and advocates.

He is not a step forward for California.

The minorites don't want discrimination to ever end. They juts want their turn with the whip.

And they're getting it in California. Between the anti-white racism and the illegal immigrants being handed driver's licenses, if you are white and live in the Granola State ("What isn't fruits or nuts is flakes!"), you are well advised to move out now.
