[QUOTE="Mcfadden, post: 743052, member: 72865"] Why have a quota at all? I know what it's [I]trying[/I] to achieve, but it fails miserably. Equal opportunity, yes. THAT's fighting racism by providing an opportunity that everybody has access to, and personally I've given my ideas on how that could be made to happen. Equal outcomes? No. A quota also ignores that some sports are more popular among certain cultures. It's like saying that 15% of the All Blacks should be Indians because Auckland has such an overwhelming large Indian population. If it's not popular, it's not popular. I hate the idea of shoving numbers at the problem. Affect change? Totally with you on that. But totally against the idea of the end goal being "well, 30 percent of Springboks are black .. job well done." That should not be the point. It's bureaucratic crap. [/QUOTE]
