Because you know as well as I do that any attempt to remove the "troublemakers" would hit the black kids at a much higher rate than the minority white kids.

WHOEVER is causing trouble should be put in special classes or expelled. It should not matter what color they are. And if the majority of them are black, then so be it. They can't really scream racism because we have elected two black mayors, back to back. So it isn't a racist issue. And I'm pretty sure the mayor would get behind it. He is a pretty cool guy, from what I understand.

I suggested cameras in the classroom for this very reason. You can't really whine if you're caught on tape.

Oh I don't disagree with you at all.

Sure they can.

I have no opinion other than stuff I have read about him in the paper he really does not have much effect on my life.
