UW Republicans 'Affirmative Action Bake Sale' Draws Criticism
SEATTLE, WA A college Republicans student group at the University of Washington is holding a bake sale on Friday, and the treats will be priced according to their customers' race and gender.
For white people, baked goods are $1. Black people will pay 50 cents for the same treat, while women or "females" as the UW students say get 25 cents off everything.
The bake sale is meant to be a rebuke of the passage on Sunday of I-1000, a law that allows affirmative action in hiring for government jobs, college admissions, and government contracts. The college Republicans say I-1000 is racist, and they'll use the bake sale to convince others of that.
"We will be protesting this clearly racist change of law by hosting a bake sale that plainly shows the clear discrimination allowed by law now," the Facebook event page reads.
But others see the bake sale as a hideous stunt. In a statement, the Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Center at UW called the affirmative action bake sale "horrific."

I wouldn't be surprised if they spit on everything.
