btw we should be talking about quotas in spelling bee too. Maybe penalize folks for the wrong accent or color?

look around, white kids don't want to be there. It's not remotely worth the effort- most kids are much better positioned for college staying in their pyramid school, the social life comes across as misery and the travel distance precludes most activities

This is true. Some Asians act like there’s some big white conspiracy to take over TJ when all but a few white families lost interest in that place many years ago. It’s mostly URMs pushing to change the admissions policies now, but the crazy Asians defending the status quo decided it would be more PC to respond by attacking whites instead. It’s a dangerous strategy that leads everyone else to dislike the current TJ crowd even more.

Speak for yourself. You don't represent everyone else. You don't represent whites. They couldn't care less people like you hate Asians even more. You are a lost cause.

The woke ideology is not pushed by URMs. It is pushed by radical left whites. You don't have to listen to me. Listen to Bill Maher, a true liberal who actually makes some sense.

Asians will be pushed to vote for republicans to counter that hate coming from the radical left.

Asians don't need to be pushed to vote for Republicans, they have always voted Republicans in majority. Nothing new here

This is nonsense. Asian Americans gave Obama 62% of their vote the first time around and a whopping 73% in his second term.

Even in 2016, while all of you were turning up your noses at a female president, we gave her 79% of our vote. You messed up and we didn’t, but somehow we’re still paying the bills, while you celebrate your wokeness.

Voting for Obama and Hilary is not a voting record to be proud of.

To the PP who thinks Asians have no political power - Asians turned Virginia from deep red to blue

This was really a devilishly clever move because it skates around quota concerns.

"During my forty-plus years as an FCPS teacher I always made clear that I would never view my students through a racial or cultural lens. I am part of the old school crowd who still believes, as did Martin Luther King, that one should be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. The “One Fairfax” doctrine seems to suggest the opposite view. I sense that changing the TJ Admissions process is only the beginning. Every program for advanced/gifted students ranging from AP participation to AAP will be viewed through a racial lens instead of an academic/readiness lens. I feel that they will be diluted to the point of non-existence."

Williams lost me when he claimed TJ was built for its current test-in students. It was not. It was built for students living in Alexandria, Annandale and Falls Church in 1964. The school was then taken away from the community for which it was built at the whims of a Republican-controlled county government in the mid-1980s, and FCPS has been dealing with the fallout ever since.

He can solve all the proofs he wants, but he can't rewrite history.

And as a way of saying to tech companies and the like that Fairfax was open fer bidness.

What is this misinformation? TJ was established in 1985 to provide a specialized education for the students of Fairfax County.

I tend to think that some Asians wanted anti-affirmative whites to stick their necks out and fight this fight. But most whites just don’t care.

Don’t expect much from Warner.

This is a straight lottery with no racial / geographic quotas?
