#2 Just maybe; I mean maybe. The Supreme Court just called an end to the experiment based on the terrible results and outcomes from the reverse discrimination. The Constitution always provided clear direction why AA was illegal.

#4 ^ in the final arguments of the FDR administration before SCOTUS, they stipulated it was a tax not a pension system. During the Johnson administration and Donk controlled Congress they effectively did away with dual bookkeeping and merged it into the main tax stream.

#7 We have had about 60+/- years,since Affirmative Action was started in the 1960's. That's at least 3 generations. In some states Affirmative Action started in the 50's, so even longer.

So why is it still needed?
Shouldn't we be hiring the BEST to fill jobs instead hiring based on Race/Color for votes?

Where is the incentive for a person to be their best if they get a free ride or Pass?

#10 Gavin Newsome issued a statement condemning the Supreme Court's decision. California did away with affirmative action years ago. Dipshit.

#11 Pretty much everyone who has come out saying "I'm an affirmative action success story" since the ruling is a testimony to how much AA needed to end.

Also they are testimonials to utter lack of self-awareness.
