Let me start with this -- I like Colion Noir, I watch his videos and I think he has a pretty sharp take on things. I'm delighted the NRA made what is apparently a non-stupid choice. Will wonders never cease.
Here's my problem, I hear people cheering his hiring because he is Black. Perhaps I've fallen and hit my head but isn't that not a good thing?
Here's how my wife puts it: If you hire somebody because they're Black that is bad in exactly the same way as if you wouldn't hire them because they were Black, right?
A race based decision is a race based decision is a race based decision. And the last time I was forcibly re-educated in the subject of race I'm pretty sure that the upshot was that race based hiring was a bad thing. But i was pretty drunk so I can't say for sure.
What am I missing here?
