[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like a lot of folks. [b]Race shouldn’t be part of the discussion[/b], yet that seems like that’s all I’m reading about here.[/quote]

Who says it shouldn't be? And why shouldn't it be? [/quote]

There was a disastrous Facebook page started by the proponents of busing which had to be shut down because the antiracists took it over.  The main focus became about racism and nothing substantial about the MCPS boundary issue.  It was over the top ridiculous to see all these people basically calling opponents of busing racists because of the color of their skin, which in itself is racist.  Granted there are some overt racists in this county, but to paint a broad brush to an entire community is the wrong approach.  Was shocked to see the wypipo reference over and over again (is that even a word now?).  The moderator deleted a couple of the posts, but then got a lot of backlash saying it was racist to do so, so after that she never deleted a post from any POC--it was downhill from then on.  It was quite the train wreck...couldn't help but lurk over there.[/quote]
