Hi Windflier. Let me ask a similar question that I asked FReeper melas. Which would you send your kids to - a public school in a city that was 95% black, or a public school in a city that was 5% black?

Interesting device, but instead of trying to corner me into making your point for you, why not just state it out loud yourself?

If you read my previous post on this, then you saw that I freely admit that there's a sickness of spirit in the black community. I also said that that sickness is mostly being manifested by a minority of those people. That is true, despite the fact that the general moral character of the black community (as a whole) has declined during my lifetime. The same can be said for the moral character of all racial sub groups in this country.

The point is, most people are basically good, and simply trying to get on with the business of living. That's true of any community.

As for my personal preferences, and so that you don't think I'm trying to dodge the question, my wife and I home school our kids, and have been doing so for over a decade. That said, if I were inclined to send them to government schools, I wouldn't willingly choose to enroll them in a predominantly black school, because the anti-social minority (which I spoke of earlier) exerts an influence over the majority of kids that far outweighs their actual numbers. This, I know from personal experience.

The same type of anti-social influence exists in predominantly white schools, too, but from what I've gathered, it's not nearly as dangerous.

Instruction, administration, and guidance in ALL of the public schools is equally bad. They ALL have a leftist mission to indoctrinate the children into their Communist world view, and the three Rs are only secondary considerations.
