A Difference of Opinion
The following passage summarizes an important difference of opinion. After reading the statement, use the library and/or the Internet and find what knowledgeable people have said about the issue. Be sure to cover the entire range of views. Then assess the strengths and weaknesses of each. If you conclude that one view is entirely correct and the others are mistaken, explain how you reached that conclusion. If, as is more likely, you find that one view is more insightful than the others but that they all make some valid points, construct a view of your own that combines the insights from all views and explain why that view is the most reasonable of all. Present your response in a composition or an oral report, as your instructor specifies.
Do all claims of discrimination deserve to be taken seriously?
Discrimination may be defined as acting out prejudice toward others. Over
the past half century Americans have become aware of the unfairness of discrimination and the importance of laws that protect people from its effects.Some people believe such laws will continue to have value only if all claims of discrimination are taken seriously. Others, however, believe the opposite.They argue that the key to fighting genuine discrimination is to be aggressive in exposing and denouncing phony claims. In your analysis of this issue, evaluate the following cases, among others.
1. After an Illinois high school basketball player was arrested twice for
driving under the influence of alcohol, the coach kicked him off the
team. The young man responded by claiming that because he was an
alcoholic, his dismissal constituted discrimination under the Americans
with Disabilities Act. Based on that reasoning, he sued for $100,000 in
damages and demanded reinstatement on the team.

是否所有关于歧视的主张都值得认真对待？
歧视可以被定义为对他人表现出偏见。在过去的半个世纪里，美国人已经意识到了歧视的严重性和保护人民免受歧视影响的法律的重要性。有些人认为，只有当所有的歧视主张都被采纳时，这些法律才会继续有价值。狡猾。然而，其他人则相反。他们认为，打击真正歧视的关键在于积极揭露和谴责虚假的主张。在你对这个问题的分析中除其他外，还包括以下情况。
1.伊利诺伊州一名高中篮球运动员因酒后驾车被逮捕两次后，教练将他踢出了球队。年轻的M一个人的回答是，由于他是一个酒鬼，根据“美国残疾人法”，解雇他构成了歧视。基于这个理由，他提起诉讼，要求赔偿10万美元。要求球队复职。
