Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : "The solution to our Nation's racial problems thus cannot come from policies grounded in affirmative action or some other conception of equity," Thomas writes.
35% : "Small wonder, then, that these policies are leading to increasing racial polarization and friction."Thomas also refuses to hold back on his fellow justices' flawed views of affirmative action and mistaken interpretation of the Constitution in his opinion.
