[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would the Hispanics in South Arlington support BLM?  You Ds are so fricking confusing.[/quote]

Few in south Arlington care much about this. It’s a Distraction.[/quote]

It *is* no big deal. Except to the white supremacists. And SA whiners.

It’s costing a lot of money, and the county is strapped. Find a cheaper way to virtue signal.[/quote]
Arlington is too cash-strapped to get rid of a Confederate name?  Really? [/quote]

Nope. It’s not. Plus, getting rid of a bunch of bus routes should cover it. 
[/quote]
Exactly. Keep those schools walkable and segregated. Good stuff.[/quote]

Huh, TIL having schools be walkable is segregation with whiffs of white supremacy. Fascinating![/quote]

Not only that, did you know that most North Arlington neighborhoods had racial covenants (until they were outlawed) that ensured local neighborhoods and schools would remain segregated? Or did you think it was just a coincidence that NA looks like it does? Yes, walkable schools are appealing to everyone but there's no denying that in Arlington County that demand also leverages a history of racist exclusion in North Arlington and one of concentrated poverty in South Arlington.[/quote]

Cool. Do you want poors with low test scores in your kid’s school? Didnt think so. [/quote]

Yes, I do. And because I believe in integration, that means not only do I want a mix of kids them in my south Arlington elementary, I also want a mix in your north Arlington elementary. [/quote]

I want a mix at my kids’ schools too. And I want walkable/short bus. They are NOT mutually exclusive. We are fortunate to have both.

Most parents prioritized proximity.
