In my fair city, a report was issued last year on racial profiling. The report concluded that the police were more likely to pull over minorities and search their cars, despite the fact that statistically the police were more likely to find drugs and contraband in the vehicles of white people. This isn't to say that whites have drugs more often than minorities, just that the police only pulled over the whites who they had good reason to suspect had drugs.

Oh, so because it happends in your city, it happends everywhere, 1 study= worldwide.
And you say racism still exists, so what? Legally, noone can discriminate, and affirmative action makes sure all these "underprivilaged" minorities get jobs. I don't understand how you can truly support something that favors one group over another, its a catch 22, because thats discrimination against the other guy. There is no way of denying that.
Even though racism exists, that doesnt hinder a students ability to learn, its not like there are segregrated classrooms, or anything like that. If anything, the educational system has been geared toward poorer scoring minorities, and the gov has made it easier to graduate and pass standardized testing.
And honestly, all this preferential treatment is just going to fuel racism more, as whites will keep getting more pissed. If everything, in all aspects was just equal, life would be lots simpler.
