In life you don't always get what you want, and your skin is not always the reason. Maybe they didn't like the way you spoke, or carried yourself. Or, perhaps the other candidates had better credentials. Or, perhaps, the person who got the job was just like you - what then???????
Um wow...I agree with you that most places that hire minorities don't hire them with the intention of firing them later. I also agree that there are people who just can't admit that there was someone more qualified....BUT THOSE PEOPLE ARE BOTH MINORITIES AND NON MINORITIES.
You say that "your skin is not always the reason...." How can you realize that other options exist but say that to you, all reverse descrimination 'complainers' are spoiled??? Money has nothing to do with it.....if you really did suck, you can suck regardless if you have money or not. That's just called bitching.
Sorry I just get pissed when people are quick to paint all white people as spoiled and always getting their way. Discrimination definitely exists, and to a much lesser extent, so does reverse discrimination.
