"I thought O'Rielly argued on some pretty solid ground, in that the party was planned on school time, in the school, which would make it against the law."

That's tantamount to saying that a "senior" party organized at school but to held at your house when your parents leave is a "school function". Bunk. Boortz was right, this was a private party. There were numerous "black only" parties held in the area and in the Atlanta area. This has happened in every community in the South for decades. Do you need the government to hold your hand too? Do you need to have the man with the gun come into your home to make sure you associate with the "correct" people and not of your choosing? The idea that this was "against the law" in any way is assinine and childish.

Indianapolis has Black Expo every summer, there is black history month, Black Congressional Caucus, and on and on and on.

I sometimes feel like we shouldn't be sitting here typing back and forth to each other but we should be writing the media, congress, etc. I am so sick and tired of the left wing, media led, double standard in this country that I am beginning to get very cynical.

It has gotten to the point that I have to titrate the amount of Newsmax, FoxNews, Free Republic, Rush, etc that I watch/read/listen to. The elapsed time I go through from calm to wound up is getting shorter with each passing Rat I encounter.

This is getting series, I'd better go take a shower!

This is going to shock you, but he has a point on that. Alot of Schools, use that kind of logic to punish kids for having booze bashes at there house, or having parties where there is drugs and stuff. Its not as uncommon as it should be. Personally, I think its stupid for schools to abuse power like this.

Last year there was a story (I'm sure it had to be on FNC because its the only news channel I watch). The story was about black students who decided they wanted to have their OWN prom (no whites). So what? If a bunch of kids get together at lunch in the cafeteria and plan a weekend function, it's NOT legitimatly a "school sponsered" program.
I would feel better about this story if BOTH sides were being presented. Where are the black prom-goers and what is their take on this? (Maybe the black students were happy to not have the prom with those particular white kids!).
Regardless, I think Bill is seeing more into this than anyone. Normally, I watch O'Reilly and he doesn't bother me, but these last few shows, he's been real irritating.
In 2 shows now, it was stated that the school does not promote or fund the proms, that the students pitch in and organize it themselves and go to a larger city for accomodations. I want to hear all sides before I consider this a "series" issue.
