Really like this guy.

"But I would never suggest that a wise Asian would, more often than not, reach a better conclusion than a white judge."

Yep.

“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.” - Sonia Sotomayor

Soon as he got to wise Asian, I knew exactly who he was referencing. I have to stay away from pages like Reason.com, it's literal oasis of sanity on the internet. I could read it all day but I want to have a life offline as well.

Sotomayor, in addition to being an actual racist who makes racist statements and still gets hired was also the crazy bitch who tried to defend the nunchaku ban from 1973 in NY but in 2011 when it was being challenged. She was still spouting off the "deadly karate stick" nonsense that people realized was BS back as far as 1978 when it was being debunked all over the place and LEOs were adopting the nunchaku as a less than lethal compliance tool.

But I guess crazy is the last one to know they are actually crazy.
