And regardless of whether it's a good practice or a bad one, I've worked in businesses that have done exactly this (ordered people to jump out the windows) -- so it's a real-world example that demonstrates the occasional need for a company to make such orders.

Personally, I would prefer not to discriminate against black people, for reasons that have already been expressed on the list. But if there's a corporate policy that says I have to, then that's the way you play the game. PLEASE refrain from using generic phrases which defend stupidity because the stupidity is done in real-life. These are lazy things to say, they might sounds like arguments, but they are not. And they have been used way to often to defend the worst human behavior or to defend why nobody did something against it. It makes by heart bleed every time I see or hear them. It is okay to say: "This is done." But please ALWAYS conclude (if "this" is stupid/injustice/bad practice) "but it needs to be changed." I know, we are living in a world where it is hard to fight every stupidity that is in place. And sometimes you have to do these stupid things in order to get somewhere. But a first easy step is, not to defend them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iEYEAREKAAYFAlNko7wACgkQ/6vdZgk46shmbQCfQ7jsvq208OHZyQATOceBDYMF eMwAn27OZCAZlMUvhtvgDZ/Ox7snzqWr =T/dl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
