This BS about "protected groups" needs to end. We've seen how a particular race of people are given favored status, protected status. I think it's become more acceptable for other protected / favored groups to spring up. None of this is constitutional. Our founding documents are clear about this: All men are created equal....not equal outcomes, not favored because of origin, race, gender, or any other characteristic. How absurd must all of this get before people start pushing back on all of this? On the basis of unconstitutionality, ALL of these statuses must be wiped away.
