Brown meant you couldn’t use race as a factor in determining where students went to school, if anything it should mandate neighborhood schools.<BR/><BR/>Now fast forward to the late 60s/early 70s. “Progressive” (excuse me while I puke) judges redefine that to mean they can order school systems to bus students for an hour to another neighborhood to go to school there. The results? Let’s see, people starting moving out of the inner city schools, the education bureaucracy has exploded (anyone explain to me what a “diversity coordinator” does except steal oxygen) and the taxpayers have had to pay a fortune do to the orders of unaccountable judges (who’s children, I have no doubt, did not suffer because of the cluster they caused) <BR/><BR/>What a great country!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-40706222754104864092007-06-28T18:13:00.000-07:002007-06-28T18:13:00.000-07:00That's why I put it there.I saw the NAACP represen...That's why I put it there.<BR/><BR/>I saw the NAACP representatives, among others, criticizing this decision--showing that Dr. Paige was right (see my post on him) when he said that the so-called Civil Rights establishment is on the wrong side of this case.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730642770935985796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-36690005416052964402007-06-28T18:08:00.000-07:002007-06-28T18:08:00.000-07:00I agree with Mike.
