[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we just stipulate that FARMS is code for poor, that nearly all of the poor in DC are black and Latino, that many who participate in this forum will do anything to limit their interactions with all of the above? I think if you read enough of these threads, you'll know that to be true. I just wonder why those folks are living in a city.[/quote] That may be the majority but that doesn't nessasarily have to mean poor. It could also mean a change in economical status. Qualifying for FARMS does not mean poor. Yes many of FARM recipients are poor but not all and some that don't qualify at all sometimes try to change or leave out legal documents just so their child can qualify for it. Bottom line is you have the right to have a preference and opinion of where your child goes to school and with whom or not despite being racist but you don't have the right to be outwardly offensive. It's just wrong[/quote]
