> Yea black people always getting that advantage, you should let more people know.

I was simply responding to your sarcastic denial that black people have an advantage in college admissions.

Your sarcasm made you appear intellectually dishonest. Now at least we know you are not denying that preferential admissions take place.

"intellectually dishonest" as opposed to physically dishonest or...?

Preferential admissions, sure. And that's not new, admissions take a lot of things into account besides race, like religion, family members who were alumni, hell you can even just pay to get in. You think maybe white men get more preferential treatment in life though? "BUt THaTs NOt WhAT We ArE TALkiNg AbOuT". Huge difference between situational advantage and systematic disadvantage.
