Chicago cop sues city for right to change his race after department allows officers to change genders

LMAO! You must be "college educated". Translation: Brainwashed robot who can't think for themselves and doesn't have a single original thought on any idea. Sad that you will go through your whole life being told what to think.

You’re neglecting most of the past 56 years where the laws have enforced discrimination against whites, males and recently Asians in school admissions, government employment and government contracting. So while I cannot speak to centuries prior to my existence on earth, in the whole of my educational and working life it has been legally acceptable to discriminate against me.

He may have a very good case if he is suing for a reason. He seems to have an articulable harm or grievance.

If he was simply suing because he wanted to "change race" to illustrate a belief that "changing gender" is absurd, then it would be tossed on sight.

Approximately 0.02% of Russians are black. There aren't enough blacks in Russia to riot on a large scale, even if they all happened to get together in the same place. Blacks generally don't move to Russia because it is not a paragon of tolerance.

While I agree that race should not be a determinant of employment or advancement, invoking Putin and Russia only hurts your argument.

If I understand the story correctly, he was forced to choose from three categories (Caucasian, Black, and Hispanic) when he was hired two decades ago and he chose Caucasian. But the department now offers nine different categories, and he wants to be reclassified as one of the other six designations.

So if a Chinese American applied for this department two decades ago, what category was he supposed to choose? How about a Native American guy?

Only some lying ass white would think that African-Americans have and have had some privileged over whites in America? When did that happen?

Fox News......the company that was sued for repeatedly lying and lost.

You sound stupid as hell. Tell that crap to my parents and grandparents who couldn't even walk into thousands of businesses, let alone get hired by them. Blacks were banned and discrimated in every facet of American life. Nobody is discriminating against you for being white, unless you were trying to be in a black haircare commercial.

Some whites are so racist that they somehow think equality means that they are being denied rights, when they were the ones discriminating for 500 years.

I can’t speak to what took place 500 years ago. What I can speak to is going to the same schools, riding the same city buses, working the same dead end minimum wage jobs in high school and college trying to pay for my schooling, etc. as many of minority friends. And watching them get accepted to schools I would not and getting scholarships that had lower standards than what I was applying to with worse grades and lower test scores. Not all white people owned slaves, not all white people and Asians grew up rich, etc. I’m sure many of my Irish and Slavic ancestors(where the word slave comes from) had similar lived experiences. Doesn’t matter what color you are, growing up poor isn’t easy, and the corrective affirmative action policies of the past 56 years most negatively impacted poor white and Asians (didn’t really affect the wealthy ones).

Removing the option to identify race does not stop people from discriminating based on race. They place that option on forms because discrimination based on race is so pervasive that they need to track how people are affected by race.

Different Standards for People causes Resentment, The Politicians are causing people to be against each other, Race should NEVER be a factor, it should be irrelevant, a persons race should not help or hurt anyone in anyway. If I went to Japan I would not expect, nor would I want to be given a job or get into a school because of my race, and no one else should want that either. If you are beaten either Work Harder the next time, or say that person is just better, it is not in the card for me, I will try something else.

Even with that correction your post is still gibberish.

When you treat people well everything works

Ah yes...Russia, a beacon of human rights.

And also a GDP per capita of around $12,000 USD. People are just tripping over themselves to move there.

No. He got discriminated against. Would you make the same bigoted comment if a black officer was discriminated against? Doubtful.
