Of course the training wheels represent affirmative action. The way I see it, whites are USUALLY (not always but USUALLY) riding the regular bikes by themselves using their balance and skill to succeed and get better. Some minorities that are granted affirmative action still have their training wheels on, and they don't need nearly any skill to ride their bike. Why do whites have to work harder to get into better schools? I'm in college now and I see blacks who couldn't write one clearly stated, grammatically correct sentence if their life depended on it...SERIOUSLY. I work my butt off for where I am, and there's no advantage I have, yet I will see a group of uneducated blacks sitting around playing video games, not going to any of their classes and they are miraculously not kicked out. If they were white, I can assure you, they would be. Blacks: do you want to be educated or not? You have so much offered to you, but I feel like only 10% of you if that really take advantage.
