Shut up already. You lost. Washington Post liberal too.
No games until 2021

That article debunks the claim.
What did I get wrong?
So are you claiming she’s Native American? Cause she clearly checked the box.
If this is true then I'm 1/4 native american (Inca ancestry...my dad even speaks Quechua)! My understanding has always been that having indigenous peoples blood from south of the Rio Grande doesn't qualify you as Native American but rather Hispanic. If that's wrong, I've been filling out my schooling and work applications wrong all these years. Heck, when my sons and I were LARPing at Disneyland a few years back, I could have even proudly joined the Native American team.
But then, I've never understood the rules. Back when I applied to the Ivies in the 80s, I was told I was inelligible for affirmative action because only people descended from Mexico and Puerto Rico qualified, and given my Peruvian/Spanish ancestry I was inelligible.
Clearly checked what box? You posted "Elizabeth Warren applied to college as Native American".
In her admission application to Rutgers, she responded "No" to the question of whether she wanted to claim minority status. Her UT-Austin employee directory entry lists her as "White".
That's in the WP article that has been linked twice in this thread already and that you apparently have not read yet.
That doesn’t answer the question. This is the same evasive nonsense argument that kids aren’t killing each other, so it must be fine if they kill their family and other adults around them.
Well, if the rich one goes first, that must be me.
Dammit - you made me break my ignore status on crush to read that?

My daughters best friend is Chilean. She’s 100% of European decent and very tall. On the other hand, there’s a Peruvian girl in her class that’s 100% Native American and very short....yeah, it’s complicated.
I think it’s as clear as mud if you are “mestizo” whether you qualify for affirmative action. It complicates things further that most Americans don’t have passports or travel to Latin America and don’t understand the social dynamics of those countries.
I think many Latinos/Hispanics claim their European heritage over their Indigenous because of discrimination due to caste system in all of these places from Colonialism.
I think your rich #1 and then Messy is 7 figure and he goes 2nd. Espy is an old soul and I bet he has a nice retirement but not all the extras. Probably lives in Norths san dieo and EOTL is on the beach or close to La Jolla. Messy is in Santa Monica and doing very well for himself so he can take on the winner of you and me EOTL. My goal is to knock you out and then knock out Messy. After that, I will go have coffee with Magoo and find out who he really is.
My wife would get humilted a little coming up from UCSD to visit her parents in LA. The boarder dudes in San Onofre would make her smile to see her teeth. They said it very mean. "Smile!!!!!" If bad teeth, pulled your ass out of the line and talked to you some more. They would ask, "what part of Mexico are you coming from?" Fact is, she's is not from Mexico and neither were her parents or their parents and so on and so on. Labeling is wrong and it's only because of that stupid thing called, "perception." Perception is ones jealousy of lies they form in their brain of jealousy. Label label label is so lame and I'm sick of it!!!
I still think the Native Americans would have kicked my teeth in if I had tried to claim membership in that group during the Disneyland LARP. And I so wanted in.....they were one of the elite groups over the orange-yellow fray until the white team showed up and ruined everything.
Ahhh the fun we had before team sports came along, (and way way before pandemics).
Did y'all even read the report The Federalist referred to?
Come on folks! Quite the spin from The Federalist.
All politics aside, I think its prudent at this point for the leagues to postpone their planned starting dates until January (although there is certainly no guarantees of starting then). Given that we're technically not allowed to even have contact at practice or scrimmage and given the interruptions of the holidays, its seems reasonable to plan on starting on January instead of hoping for approval before January and starting with a disjointed and unprepared season.

Guatemala used to be S. Mexico.
I'd agree with this. It would also allow the players/families time to organize blackmarket pickup scrimmages and/or finalize Arizona/NV/Ut tournament plans. Would also give clarity for who's in and whose out. While they are at it, they really need to pull the trigger on State Cup too....the youngers at least won't be able to make it given that even a truncated season would run into it.
I disagree for ECNL U16 and olders. Everyone else, yes, please wait until January. Look, I paid for last half of season and got zero games. Then I'm paying this half of the season and guess what? No games. That means I've paid for one whole seasons worth of games and guess how many games my $3000 gave me? Zippo!!! I promise I'm not looking for a refund, I'm just SMFH and it's all directed at me. I gambled my money and I'm still holding out hope for a miracle after Nov 3rd......
I don't believe you actually read the study.
It was stereotype on her at the time. You talk to Mexicans and folks from Guatemala these days and see what they have to say about being one big happy family.
