Hey, my beloved procrastinators! It's been a while since we had our last installment of ridiculously over-simplified and unbearably polarized hypothetical situations, inspired by the NationStates online game - you know, that place where you're the benevolent ruler of your own fictional state, which you're completely free to shape as you please, based on the stupid choices you make in situations like the below presented. Last time when we delved into the depths of True Democracy(tm), and the bulk of you guys sided with Ms Parke, an overworked bureaucrat who has had enough of all those bills containing dozens of unrelated riders. Well, now the situation I'm presenting to your attention is not too different from that case, except this time the focus will be on affirmative action in schools.

The Issue
After minority student Akira Ruff was refused admission to a traditional, prestigious college, civil rights activists, conservatives, and teachers are up in arms about affirmative action and ethnic equality in education.
