He was sharing a yarn about a Hispanic friend in Arizona pulled over "for no reason" and continued with the "systemic racism" tripe, preaching to the kids, with the social justice warrior band teacher giving the amens. I asked him in front of the kids if our justice system is then systemically sexist against men, because our prisons are over 90% male. Silence. Amid all that insanity at the time, I wanted the kids to hear a skeptical voice and to hear it challenged.

I'm glad you brought this up, because you folks depend on intimidating people into silence. That is becoming less and less effective, and you guys know it.

ND's DEI program, which the DOE argues violates Title VII (and I assume Title VI) is beyond just the selection process. The school's program has a number of advantages awarded based on race both at and after the initial selction phase.

Do you agree that people should be judged by the content of their character and not the color of their skin?

Or, do you disagree with MLK?

I imagine someone complained and it's why the IN AG is investigating their DEI program. The BBB leaves religious college endowments alone, but ND should be careful in that their tax exemption could be challenged.

There's a large segment of the giving population there that don't appreciate the DEI nonsense.

I would also tell them that they are risking the exemption of their endowment pursuing something that is per se illegal and in fact they are under investigation by the IN AG exactly for this illegal program.

Your ignorance on this matter is telling.
