Facebook page with racist posts still visible for Republican Mark Robinson
  • “I have more respect for loyal DOGS than I do for PEOPLE who don’t take care of their children,” Robinson wrote on his Facebook page in 2014. The post contained the hashtag “#haveyourdeadbeatsspayedandneutered”.

    Fucked up thing to say but I can see a lot of those, "Dogs are better than ppl", "We don't deserve dogs" ppl saying this.

  • Uncommitted movement: Trump remains biggest threat, not Democrats
  • Why? Their complaints and protests are completely valid and done in an informed and determined manner. They know Trump would be worse for Palestinians but that doesn't give Democrats a free pass to be a little less shitty

  • California bans legacy admissions in all colleges, universities
  • The comment about the Universiry of California having its most diverse class leaves out some colleges saw a 40% drop in black and latino students that didn't get close to pre Affirmative Action numbers for almost 20 years.

    The ban on legacy admissions will ultimately change very little in my opinion as the the majority of legacy candidates come from wealthy families with ties to the university. They'll just call a legacy candidate something else because we all know this won't really be enforced.

    You really want to make higher education fair you have to take money out of it and force institutions to take in candidates fairly.
