Perhaps it is time for the white students to demand a culturally sensitive curiculumn that meets their cultural needs.

Like lab,

What they mean by that is, they will make the white kids dumber in order to make them the educational equal of the blacks and mexicans(f*** the term hispanics, I am tired of PC terms).

I read that as a poem in my High School English class. I suppose I owe Geddy Lee some money as I claimed it was original.

I got an A.

White libs are always shrieking that the Right is anti-science, but reading that list of classes gave me an urge to put a bone thru my nose and dance around the moon god totem pole.

Yeah and when they get to college, if they get to college, they’ll probably have to take remedial Contemporary La Raza Studies, remedial African-Haiti dance and remedial Social Justice Ecology.

What a waste of money and lives.

Funny story. When I was 5 or 6 my parents bought a big chalk board for Christmas. I’m like okay where the hell is my GI Joe crap. My mom started to teach me various subjects on the chalk board. Well, when school started back I showed what I learned to the teacher. She got mad as it would advance me ahead of the other students. I told my mom about that nonsense and she, a devout Republican, had a few words with the teacher.

I think that the student who want to major in science may go elsewhere..

Somehow redesigning the schools to suit the parasite class just doesn’t seem smart to me.

Nonsense! Everyone knows that white kids (at least poor rural ones) are anti-science nincompoops who cling to savage creation myths while non-whites have all been Darwinists From the Dawn of Time, completely free of any supernatural beliefs whatsoever. This simply must be a mistake.

It takes an Orwellian exercise in doublethink to believe cutting science labs can somehow increase student achievement.

Man that poem is awesome. Thanks for posting.

God help us, and I mean it. If you listen carefully you can hear the dark ages returning.
