[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It isn't that the parents at the W schools don't want minorities.  They don't want any poor people.  They are not fighting racial diversity; they are fighting economic diversity.  They (wrongly) believe that poorer families don't deserve access to better resources and better schools.  They want to keep those things for themselves.  [/quote]

This is so very deeply offensive because it's grossly untrue.  I live in a "W" school and not a single person I know thinks / feels or believes this.   While you are off accusing parents here of this foul rhetoric go and actually talk to people.  The one and only reason I have heard and quite frankly agree with is I want me kid to go the the school closest to our home only because  I don't want them on a bus in traffic and wasting time.  I want them to be able to walk or ride their bikes to school / sports/ friends houses.  To be able to carpool to events / sports etc for my kids without spending hours in the car.   I know people whose kids have to take the bus to Pyle but live directly across the street from Westland and would prefer their kids go there.

Stop with the broad brush insults and condensation.  It's just not true. What an asshole you are for stating "they believe poor families...."  What a load of crap.   You have no idea what I and others have dedicated our lives to, believe in and advocate for.   Get off this forum and instead of insulting people you don't know or understand do something constructive about it.  [/quote]
