No one has a problem with cops giving more scrutiny when choosing whether or not to pull over a 23 year old guy at a checkstop compared to a 56 year old mom with her kids.
Super-End Point:
PEOPLE ARE TOO SENSITIVE ABOUT STUPID THINGS.
Edit: Okay, I get it. The hiring example was a bad scenerio. Change it then.

Hey I'm not saying you're totally out of line.
You are right in some cases and it raises a good debate - why should an insurance company be able to violate my rights and charge me more money because I am a man and not a woman?
But they aren't allowed to keep racial stats which could or could not show that 'Chinese drivers cause more accidents than white ones'.
