OK.
Now I know why you believe every conspiracy theory, because you completely lack common sense. If a white HR administrator sees the name LaRon on a resume he might equate it with an uneducated ghetto thug, instead of an educated black man. I'm not saying it's right, but it's the way the world works. Not everyone discriminates solely on skin color...
