Poorly educated and lied to, Blacks at UCLA call correcting their grammar and punctuation racist
The Coach Is Right ^ | February 10, 2014 | Kevin “Coach” Collins

It’s hard to figure out what to make of the people in this story. Should these people be laughed at or pitied?

Recently a group of 25 self-described “Students of Color” held a sit-in to support poor English writing skills. They whined about the “racism” of being offered constructive criticism of their lack of grammar, spelling and punctuation abilities.

As products of dysfunctional government schools, many if not all of them have little or no writing skill. Many of them don’t know they have no writing skills. They have been lied to and had their heads patted so often by paternalistic liberals they can no longer recognize the truth about their shortcomings.

We can expect little else from students who have never been dealt with honestly

[snip] Apparently the poorly educated students who registered for this course expected more lies and head pats rather than actual instruction. Claiming to be, “aggrieved minority students,” these spoiled brats proved they haven’t enough brains to realize the value of authentic education.

The minority student isn't the only one who is getting a non-education....and the fight to employ Conservative teachers in the lower grades and in colleges/universities is an ongoing battle. America's children are the losers...in spades.

I swear! Anybody that even whispers the word “racist” deserves a punch in the mouth.

It’s how da libtard “progressives” keeps da darkies ona plantation.

Thanks to “Communist Core”, scores of millions of white kids will soon join them.

I can hear the new chains being forged as I write this.

Classic case of VICTIMOLOGY. They realize there short fall but instead of doing what it takes to change they BLAME someone else. That’s how the losers on the left operate

Guess what....Teachers don't correct spelling or grammar anymore. It takes away from the creative talents of the child. My poor granddaughter. We had to teach her what the teachers wouldn't....how to write rather than print...how to spell...and how to do times tables.

It's called learning discipline....over and over....no spell check...no calculator.

With that skill level, how these students were accepted to UCLA at first place?

Another negative result of “affirmative action” and “diversity” programs

If they couldn’t write on a minimal level, then they shouldn’t be there in the first place

If you can’t or won’t compete, you don’t belong. Try juco first, get your skills in order (if you dare to work at it) then try, try again.

Otherwise, it’s just a big, wasteful revolving door of failures. We all have seen it, over and over and over.

20 years ago Bill Clinton tried to add Ebonics to the canon of acceptable English dialects.

It was a move designed to forever hamstring the black community. Anyone that hears such idiot-speak out of your mouf would internally think lesser of you, not for your skin color, but your poor writing and speaking skills. Forever you would be shunned; kept from dealing with potential clients and denied promotions. But there would be set aside quota jobs for those with such a mental handicap.

As Barack Obama told his community in South Chicago:

If you didn’t get an education, you are a victim of racism and deserve all support from the government (run by pasty, white Republicans that hold you back).

The Democrat party, through reparations legislation, is providing you that “safety net” so you can survive. The only reason you barely survive is because those pasty, white Republicans won’t compromise on giving you more of all the money that is in the economy.

Welfare recipients of the world...UNITE!

We don’t have affirmative action in military and sports. That is why we are the best.

They don’t realize that the Democrats deliberately hold them back, keep them poor, and dependent on a government handout.

The Party thanks “the community” for the support. Of course, the community “organizers” and “leaders” are not elected to represent the interests of the community, they call themselves that (just like Al Sharpton calls himself a Reverend).

I don’t blame them to be upset——poor babies.

They’d be better off emigrating,as our forefathers did.

I would strongly suggest Uganda,Zimbabwe,or Chad.

Chad’s especially nice this time of year.No nasty white people keeping them down in Chad.

That said,I’m so damned sick of the whining.

Has anyone read some of the news articles written by journalism majors from some of the top universities in the U.S. They are atrocious.
