It was certainly wrong for this information to get to the press, that much is true.
None of us know the reasons for the actions made, so all we can do is see if it makes a difference.
Don't weaken your eloquent stand by resorting to name calling, Jackyalex is entitled to their opinion, as we all are.

I stated earlier that these initiatives aren't brought by Muslims. It's the do gooders, who very often do more harm than actual good.

It is right that this news got into the press. The backlash is a result of the stupid belief that positive discrimination works. It doesn't.

I myself could be included in quite a few minority label boxes, if I so wished. I don't. It's a result of a patronising idea that some people are worse off than others, and conversley that some people are better.

The law, like life, should view everyone as equals. Special dispensations produce feelings of fear, frustration, and anger.
