The one who does not get hired will be adversely affected, as he will remain unemployed.

Do you still go with the white male, or do you now flip a coin?

I do my job. If I'm instructed to be race blind regarding security risk, then I will be, and I'll flip a coin. If it's entirely up to me I pick the white male.

Before you start screaming from the rooftops, I'd also pick the black male over the middle eastern, the latino male over the middle eastern, the asian male over the middle eastern, in a job that had security aspects. I would flip a coin every time between white,black,latino,asian.

Plus the other problem is, if you hire a middle eastern, they all look the same anyway so a terrorist could pull a switcheroo and no one would be any wiser.
