Excerpt....

Another solution will be to ignore misbehavior by blacks and Hispanics. For classes with large numbers of minority students, this guarantees that the learning environment for the kids who actually want to learn will be impaired as teachers — reluctant to remove troublesome students — expend precious time on kids who are rude, threatening, loud or otherwise disruptive. Every minute of the school day taken up by bad kids is taken away from good kids. It's a true zero-sum game.

So the Obama administration's pursuit of group justice actually leads to injustice to individual students. Whites and Asians will be disciplined more than they merit it by their conduct, and fewer students of all groups will get the kind of classroom atmosphere that is conducive to learning. Even the students who get a pass on their bad conduct are disserved, as they will not have learned that disrespectful language, tardiness and even violence are unacceptable in society.

I think that many you mentioned have already been conditioned by their surroundings that violence is acceptable...How do you re-program them from what they see and hear daily? As for your other points earlier...you are spot on! Obama continues to make mistakes because of his training at home and in school and as result of his surroundings. He is bull-headed...will not listen to common sense. He may very well be the biggest mistake this country has ever made. ed

Ed- Your last two sentences---We have been saying that all along. He's not part of the solution, therefore he must be part of the problem.

The Democrats have taken 14% of the population and made them rulers over the rest of us. We have virtually bankrupted America, spending $trillions on minority "rights", educational preference, racial set-asides, headr star, school lunch, etc. For what? What have we gotten for it? Only demands for more! Has anything improved? THAT is the definition of insanity - doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

birdogs,

You are absolutely on the same wave length. Good for you. Did hell freeze over today? It's gonna be 55 in Omaha tomorrow. We'll be smashing some targets in that heat wave.
