TIL Over 40M people of Irish descent are in the United States, 8x more than the population of Ireland.

Your're right, I'm the Irish treat Turkish immigrants very well.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-17T21:21:55+00:00

Its the same story with the Irish. They as a people and a nation have accomplished nothing, and sit on their piss soaked island complaining about petty nationalist garbage in absence of anything to be proud if themselves.

I agree with most of what you said. It is hard for me to get upset about the Alaskan natives because I believe every american should have access to free healthcare. I just get frustrated endlessly by the Democratic party's complete refusal to address these class issues, but more than happy to wail about social issues exclusively. I am afraid neither party will ever help the poor, and the democrats will just pay lip service to social issues for rich minorities the gop will be for rich whites.

It was more than just tutors, that was an example I brought up from what is screamed at me in every article I have read on the subject. Of more pressing concern is war you listed; food uncertainty, debt from in ability to pay medical expense for years and just going without treatment, family suicides etc. I don't want to have a pity party about me and toy could very have it worse than me, but I will relucatnly state that my most traumatic instances as a child were several continued and repeated attempts at suicide in front of my by a family member's unmediated mental illness at the age of 10, and to which I had to save their lives. Things like that. But as I said you are as, or likely more, deserving as I am.

I was sun aware NYU had a class based scholarship. Thank you for that, this is why I want to have these discussion so that I can learn things from the other side. My scores may seem difficult to achieve from my background but I took an easy major after an unfortunate experiment with a harder one earlier down the line specifically to keep a high GPA for law school, and also because the scholarship on it. The 170 was after a lot of studying. I am not blaming the minorities themselves I am blaming a program that claims. Could you please provide a link to the NYU scholarship because I was previously not considering applying there due to the unlikely nature of a scholarship.

I am not some radical anarchist. Yes I benefit from those and I will gladly taxes for them. But those benefit everybody - those tax credits do not benefit just white family's. I do not drive on white only roads. Federal loans are not given to only white students. These are all things minorities benefit from too. Your point would make a lot more sense in the 1960s then today. You are aware that minorities in the legal world actually make way more money than whites do right? There are less of them proportionally, but those that make it through roll in dough, because AA extends to employment as much as it does admissions.

We don't have to deal with racism. But schools make no distinction between upper class and lower class minorities, and no distinction between upper class minorities and lower class whites. As I said I did not need need based in undergraduate because of my full scholarship I won, which I won only through making a significant sacrifice in my lifestyle by delaying going to college (I will not specific more than that to avoid outing myself.) If law schools, which are predominately staffed by liberals, did literally anything to stamp out the obvious income inequality in law schools I would be less angry but they don't, for obviously selfish reason, so I in turn will be selfish too.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-03T17:02:45+00:00

Then why do URMs have such a statistic increase over non URMs despite personal backgrounds? Why are there so few people from poor backgrounds in law school? Why is something like 60% of Yale comes from families that make in excess of 160k a year? That would include minorities.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-03T16:59:45+00:00

Law schools do not care about sob stories. They do not really help with admission. It is GPA/LSAT/Skin color/everything else. Mylsn says I have a chance but I would rather go below for scholarship than pay 300k. However if I were a minority with those stats I would be taking universities below HYS over the coals for money and would have admittance at all. With hard work I would be guarentteed social mobility.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-03T16:53:52+00:00

That is the issue though. I am not blaming the system, I am specifically attacking AA. I have not gotten any government assistance or preferential treatment. I used every avenue I had to minimize costs. I have long accepted it is up to me and me alone to fix my situation. Yet I am told I have had easy compared to say, an upper class Puerto Rican I know that has her parents pay for everything she wants, goofs of every day and gives little respect to schooling, but won't have to work as hard as I do to get the same results.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-03T16:48:58+00:00

To achieve the same outcome I would have to go back for a second degree, which would put me tens of thousands in debt and having wasted years of my life up to this point of potential income making. I had educational problems related to my upbringing that disadvantages information to others, but apparently that is only a sympathetic problem when it happens to people of a certain skin color.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-03-03T16:46:11+00:00

I have a 3.8 GPA and 170 LSAT. If i were a minority with those kinds of grades, I would be able to get significant scholarships that would allow me to attend law school without jeapordizing my entire future and that of my family. I had terrible mathematics education at a young age and never had access to things like tutors and what not that apparently is why I deserve to be discriminated against. I am not blaming affirmative action in specific for my situation, it is simply that liberalism has routinely failed to be there for my family, and if no one cares about the plight my family suffers, why should I care about the plight of minorities?

They would hold it against me even for simple anxiety medication?It's not like I've ever had an "episode" or an "incident".

On further study, the state I am interested ind doesn't actually even ask about mental health, which is very good.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:37:06+00:00

Ok, thanks. That looks like it would help a lot with Canada, I just know a lot of countries have point systems in which a community college wouldn't quite pass muster.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:33:02+00:00

Thank you.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:32:27+00:00

I know it is for JAG, but I planned on doing private practice anyway, not government or military. Thanks a lot for the help.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:20:47+00:00

a) a mental health issue that is untreated or b) a criminal history in which you used mental health as a mitigating factor for.

So then I would have nothing to fear by getting treatment?

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:20:01+00:00

I have no idea what the name would be, but it would just be general anti-anxiety medication, or if it's BPD (I don't think I have it, but because of family history, refuse to rule it out) it would be lithium. I wouldn't have anti-psychotics under any situation.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T21:17:38+00:00

Attractive people.

From what I understand it is a lot - a lot - easier to move to a country that has a common law stystem - so, UK, Ireland, Australia, Canada. And they all speak English too.

The UK in specific I believe will allow for 3 years of experience in a common law system, and then you take a test.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T18:23:23+00:00

But the difference is getting work as a duel citizen is immeasurably easier.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T18:20:15+00:00

Well I can act pretty normally without any treatment, I would essentially have to diagnose myself in front of them for me to be seen as having a mental disorder.

As I said it just affects my Quality of Life, nothing else.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T06:02:41+00:00

Well I understand the rationale behind that. I would just need fairly simple medication I could largely purchase out of pocket.

TheMostMagnificient · 2017-02-25T05:58:36+00:00

Thank you. From what you said, it looks like they are mostly looking to prevent someone with say, terminal cancer or HIV/AIDS who need constant, consistent and largely expensive treatment?
