There's a difference between anti-discrimination laws which prohibit discrimination in the workplace, schools, housing, government contracts etc. and affirmative action which requires preference be given to minorities and/or women in those same places. I'm for the former, and not so keen on the latter. Affirmative action is a form of discrimination. It also a matter of pride. I'd hate to think I got into a college because I am a woman. If affirmative action is necessary at all, couldn't it be accomplished by giving preference to those from poverty stricken backgrounds?
