Oak you have taken my ball and run onto a whole different field with it. In fact, you are not even playing the same sport with my ball.
NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING in any of my posts has to due with inequality in funding. NOTHING. My topic is that we are sending the white kids away from their HOME district. Get that? Their HOME district. That's why I call it "reverse busing." I understand people don't like busing when it is taking kids away from their home district, to a foreign district, to create racial balacne in the foreign district. I understand that is objectionable. If that is objectionable, so is busing kids AWAY FROM THEIR HOME DISTRICT therefore creating the segregated district at home! Why not make all the kids stay in their home district? They're making your kid do it Oak, but the kids in the Asbury District are given this special privilege to avoid AP. This decision was race based. It is the only one like it. It was done with a particular purpose, which if you look at the enrollment, worked. None of the matters you cite overturned Brown. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "oakdorf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > TD: Lsats are June 11.
