Ok, it's not technically affirmative action but I did have some dealings with baboons today.
On my way to work, my windshield wipers iced up in a bad snow storm and I had to pull to the safety of a supermarket parking lot. I got what I thought was a good spot. One close to the store that I could drive in forward and drive out forward. After about five minutes of reading my owners manual I got out of my car to see if I could find some fuses in the supermarket. There was a baboon backing out of a spot right in front of me that asked(or axed as she would say it) for assistance because it was icy and she couldn't see in back of her SUV. Being polite I kept guiding her to back up a little bit at a time. She finally reached a point where I told her to start turning forward. There was a little more room behind her, but the conditions were poor and I didn't know her response time. Of course I was also concerned about her ramming into my car which already had one poblem I had to deal with. She was afraid to put her car in forward, so I offered to get in my car and back up for her.
Before I could do that, another baboon jumped in between my car and hers and told her that she had plenty of room. She backed up until he was about touching both my car and hers. I screamed for her to put her car in forward because there was not a lot of space, but the baboon standing in between our cars insisted that she back up a little more(even though there was plenty of room for her to move forward). Sure enough she hit him and I had to stand around in the cold while the police and then the ambulance arrived to take him to the hospital. The police made me show them all the paperwork for my vehicle and made me call my insurance company even though I was fortionate that no damage was done to my car as a result of this stupid idea of his. I lost a day of work and fear this is not over. At least I was able to get the windshield wipers working again. I wish I could have wiped these two pieces of garbage out of my view.
