Rutgers Professor Taken to NYC Hospital for Psychiatric Evaluation After Tweets Threatening to Kill White People: NYPD

I was using the same data that the previous chart was using, but I was using the complete data set to calculate the total percentage of those accepted into medical school by race. You missed that, however, because you were too lazy to look at it.

The point is, if you look at the data, the percentage of those accepted to medical school by race doesn't differ from their percentage in the population in the discriminatory manner you are both suggesting. But, again, you'd have to actually look at the data instead of selecting one part of it to make your slanted case as the previously linked chart does.

Also, if you've ever applied to graduate, medical, or professional programs, you'd know that test scores and grades only represent a fraction of what matters in judging applicants. There is always a subjective element in selecting qualified applicants. For instance, according to an AAMC analysis of medical schools, letters of recommendation and community service mattered more than cumulative GPA.

If someone is unprepared for the rigors of the program, they won't become doctors. Application acceptance doesn't automatically make one a doctor. But let's look at that too. According to other AAMC data, blacks represent 5.7%, Asians represent 19.8%, Hispanics represent 4.6%, whites represent 58.8%, and other categories accounting for 11.1% of the total medical school graduates.

Absolutely none of what you listed matters unless you think a doctor's race matters. ... And sadly for the good ones, no intelligent or responsible person is going to trust a minority doctor.

Hmm ...
