Who is acting surprised? Did JayZee act surprised? I don't think so - he said "I wanted to post a positive story about a black teen, to counter the endless bigotry splattered all over this board on a daily basis." No one here acted surprised.Just a red herring from you, one of many. |

You don't see a problem there?Again, this should have been a story about a school district, with dismal graduation rate compared to most other Long Island school districts (one that is predominantly white by the way, before someone tries to bring race into that too) |

I didn't say "everyone is acting surprised". I SAID, why should anyone be surprised that it's a Black kid, thus why is it even necessary to mention? Why is it an issue in a story where it's NOT an issue. There's no need to bring race into it. |

You certainly are trolling. Since when do we assume a fact just because we can't find something to the contrary? That's absurd.We can NOT just assume this is the first time this happened, unless we find "something", anything that says it is. Just because we can't find an article saying this happened before, doesn't mean it never happened. A statement was made that "this is the first time this happened", and there is absolutely NO evidence that that is the case. Other than some guidance counselor saying in her 15 years at William Floyd School district (a marginal school district to boot), she never saw it happen. WTF is that, so that means this is the first time? Stop trolling Fred. |

NO NEWS organization has said this is the first (as of yet), not even blogs are saying this is the first. All we have is JayZee "saying" this is the first time this happened, based on some guidance counselor in the William Floyd School District (a marginal district besides) has never seen this in her 15 years. So now anyone, like JayZee can just make a statement, and we will all just loyally take as fact, because we can't fine anything to the contrary. Not only can we not find anything to the contrary, we can't even find anywhere else that actually makes that statement. And you don't see the absurdity in that? So either you truly are totally gone, or you are trolling. I prefer to assume the latter. |
