You know, ace equality and racism works both ways. So all races are equal. Not white people falling over themselves to try and not look racist.
If this is true, then Obama is a twat.


When you're done ripping that strawman to pieces, please read the actual article and note that black students aren't allowed to get away with "anything."

I think you need to use your brain just a bit more. Yes, the homicide rate among Blacks is higher, and the misbehavior rate is higher, but did you ever stop to think about why that is, or do you just stop at the first door and assume that those figures stand the way they do because that's just the way Blacks are?

Because obviously, poor education, drugs, racist cops, racist real estate workers, and the like have nothing to do with that. It's obvious that Blacks are poorer, less educated, and more violent because they are Black, nothing else.

Think for yourself. Think deeper than some idiotic agenda-based article tells you to.

I see it as nothing more than desperate attempt by the liberals attempting to create a some kind of alternative reality where everyone are equal and there are no conflicts whatsoever. It doesn't matter if such fantasy cannot be achieved, as long as it's out of sight, it's out of mind. The funniest, and also the saddest thing is that the bill doesn't even attempt to take measures to influence the behavior of African-American students in a better direction: it just covers up their misdeeds.

This is just sad. Obama is actually being the biggest racist of all, thinking that African-Americans need some kind of special protection like this.


it is gigantic mistake to think that punishment is going to improve school performance. the whole attitude of "if we just punish more they will start to behave" doesn't work at home, in school, or internationally.

Reading executive orders is some dry ass shit. So anyway...I found the part that we're supposed to be 'worried' about...
(vi) reducing the dropout rate of African American students and helping African American students graduate from high school prepared for college and a career, in part by promoting a positive school climate that does not rely on methods that result in disparate use of disciplinary tools, and by supporting successful and innovative dropout prevention and recovery strategies that better engage African American youths in their learning, help them catch up academically, and provide those who have left the educational system with pathways to reentry;
...
(iii) decreasing the disproportionate number of referrals of African American children from general education to special education by addressing the root causes of the referrals and eradicating discriminatory referrals;

Those, I'm guessing, are the passages that are supposed to lead us all to our doom or some such nonsense.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I don't think Obama understands that it's possible for one race to do more bad than another. Black people think it's racism, but no, it's just that there HAPPEN to be more black kids who do bad than white kids. It's statistics, not racism.

I never said that they were. Just like the OP, you're jumping to a conclusion based on an assumption.

I know that not all cops are racist, and that not all real estate workers are racist. That's common sense. But the truth is that many of them are, and because they are many Blacks are stuck in a cycle of poverty and crime.

Please please please don't make the same mistake you did before and assume that I'm saying that racist cops and racist real estate workers are the sole reason that many Blacks are in the situation they are today, that's not what I'm saying, because it's not true. But it is a major factor, which is why Obama tried to get passed what he tried to get passed.

Besides, as most people here have stated, the law doesn't give Black students a free card to do whatever they want.

If something is being sold as "Obama asks schools to ignore bad behavior by black students", then without reading into it I will bet that its actually a perfectly reasonable attempt to combat racism involving no actual ignoring of bad behaviour by black students.
