And I must also add that I did my senior thesis on the bias sentencing of black men v. white men, I will post my references on here after I unpack, if anyone is interested, but there are a lot of disparities in the sentencing stage. It's interesting also, because one teacher that I had who was very liberal gave me a B on the research paper, I allowed someone else to use my paper, yes it was wrong, but the person tweaked it a little and a very conservative prof graded the paper and gave her a F. Same paper, the intro was tweaked a little, same research and conclusion, differnt professors with diff ideologies, and diff grades. Both professors white, both had much tenure and were both the chairs of their depts, one in the political science dept the other in the criminal justice dept. We were still trying to figure out why the diff grades.
You know Marine, I don't know how you determine that Black Americans have become dependent on racism and the "Affirmative Action" lifestyle and not solving problems head on. Affirmative Action is needed because of the discrimination in the workplace and white women benefit more from that lifestyle anyways. Racism and discrimination still exists in America. How do you determine that blacks are dependent on racism? I believe that due to the history of this country, some blacks cannot help, but to be leery of whites and the criminal justice system. It wasn't that long ago that blacks were fighting for the right to vote and equal rights with their lives. And Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson bailing somebody out, please!!!! Do not be fooled, the media tends to always put the spotlight on them when there are issues concerning unfair treatment of blacks, there are far more leaders in the black community, the media just doesn't speak to them. Just look at what occurred in Jena, La., on the black radio programs, black shows, the black churches, and colleges and universities student leadership was unbelievable!
I agree with the sentences received for the crime, it was the max punishment for the crime, so it's fair.
I remember when they implemented this dress code, the point is, the students and parents know what the dress code is, from the shirts to the shoes. Follow it and have no problem. If you don't obey the rules then deal with the consequences. Some of these parents have been dealing with this dress code since it began, so this is nothing new. If someone can't afford shoes, work something out with the school and allow your child to attend school until your next pay or whatever, go to your church, churches are willing to help if truly in need, family members, friends, 2nd hand stores, etc. I think that after a few times, you need to be suspended for disobeying the rules. I remember when I was a student I was out of dress code 1 time, they did not call my parents, I was out of dress code because I unexpectantly had to spend the night over my grandma's house. I got thru about to 5th period before someone noticed and I was sent to study hall, where I was bored! My education was not continued, because I was missing my other classes, like math and english. Ms. Webb just is enforcing the rules.
Those voters that were supporting Hillary, I can see as voting for McCain due to race, I will call them racist all day. And aztek519, whose money is the govt using to bailout these greedy companies, AIG, Fannie and Freddie? Now those CEOs and whoever else, are still going to maintain their lavish lifestyles and still benefit financially off of us working people. So either way your money is going to the lazy or the rich and greedy!

But Bush's policies, he's the worst President ever and anyone who votes for him that much, is just as bad.

2007 McCain voted in favor of Bush's policies 95% of the time and 2008 about 90%.
