The United States had to deal with serious issues ever since it became an empire. A lot of the problems could have been avoided if man was not so greedy.
I think reverse discrimination is a problem in the United States because of documentation which tracks different ethnic groups. The organizations that compiled these statistics have other organizations relying on them for accuracy.
The problem with most statistical reporting is the manipulation that can bring about satisfaction to a certain minority or majority group. It is impossible to get accurate data when people are so mobile.
It is easier to make use of the word accuracy in describing the end results. This could give the population satisfaction or a fear not to question the results.
Certain people had problems with being discriminated against because of their skin color, speech, clothes, hair, and intelligence. Now we make use of the words reverse discrimination to describe people who had discriminated in the past.
A lot of these people will deny that they had discriminate against anyone in the past. If you did not have the right skin color, speech, clothes, hair, and intelligence, then you did discriminate. It means you are guilty by association.
The problem with reverse discrimination these days is that it is so obvious. It is a revenge mode set with various policies and distributed by different governments.
Some individuals feel it is their right to practice reverse discrimination because of past suffering they and their ancestors had to endure. They want certain individuals to suffer, feel pain and to see who is in charge now. These same sadistic individuals can probably be seen in church on Sunday.
We are in a cycle of war in the United States in which everyone is fighting for their right to own a piece of the country. Reverse discrimination is a weapon to push one group out in order to make room for another group.
Reverse discrimination is a revengeful tactic that has nothing to do with anyone's rights. It reminds me of the Law of Retaliation which states an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Local governments need to put an end to some written laws. It is some of these written documentation that people see and touch that promotes some of these problems. It keeps them hanging on for more. The Law of Gravity will not be able to hold too much nonsense.
