Busing and ReSegregation, intergration Options

[onenonly101]

It seems as though places like school are becoming segregated again. I go to an all black school, with the exception of 3 or 4 asians and 3 or 4 hispanics. I used to do the M to M program. It was a program called Minority to Majority. Then they shut it off because of one man complaining about busing. It turns out he was a racist and didn't want blacks going to school with his daughter.(Which now blacks are moving into their community so...) Now they made me go back to my home school Towers. I don't live in the inner city and my neighborhood is black. Busing forced intergration. I loved going to Peachtree because of the fact that it was so many different races there. Now it is only one race. No diveristy at all. That is not how it is going to be in the real world. You will incounter people from all different backgrounds. So the question is Should we restart Busing

Actually(i'm going to have fun with this) That has absolutely nothing to do with what I'm saying.

I'm just showing that the reason we integreated in the first place is to AVOID busing. So wouldn't it be smart to actually DO IT?

I'm saying we need diveristy. It is not black and white in the real world. You don't know what I'm saying because you are not experiencing what I am.

In other words, we need a diversity of EXPERIENCES AND IDEAS. I already asked you and you haven't responded: WHY is this tied in with race?

I swear to you I'm not lying or kidding when I say at school they teach you to hate white people. Why? Because these people have never been around white people. They take what they see on Tv and make a conclusion from it. A conclusion that is biased and not even half of the story.

I'm assuming you mean informally htere's a hatred of white people. There's nothing wrong with that. You see, as a member of a free society, I will hate whoever the hell I want to. And I have teh right to say so.

It BECOMES wrong when that hate and racism is advocated by the GOVERNMENT -- through busing, where RACE is used as a criteria of what school kids go to.

You are right she sued because it was a white school right by. I'm saying that we need to buss because people are not going to move to a neighborhood where they are the only one of their skin color. So the only way to get diveristy is to buss.

So if I'm reading you right, you're saying, sometimes the only way to get rid of a headache is to shoot yourself in the head. Go try it.

To have programs like M to M where it takes minorities and brings them to majority of one color school and it begans to change the school into a mixed environment.

If I wanted a mixed environment, I could go downtown. I pay taxes to go to school to learn as conveniently as possible, and that means close to my house.

Yeah that is in down south Georgia though. I live in Dekalb County which is in metro Altlanta.

Cool, I was down there for the Emory Debate Tourney a few months ago. Nice place.

It is sad that people are so closed-minded and ignorant. That same county now added a new prom. An all hispanic prom. Now they have a Black prom-whichi is open to everyone, a white prom-closed to everyone not white, and a hispanic prom. It is so stupid

Is this at a public school or a private one?

If it's at a public school, then we should abolish it ... but that doesn't mean FORCE integration either. It means, whatever works out WITHOUT STATE INTERFERENCE is what works out.

If it's a private one, they can have an all-blonde hair prom for all I care. I don't pay taxes to support them.
