[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Articulate and regular Brent poster (who I think is a male, Hill staffer and whose first kid is about 3) ..... when are you going to get it through your head that you and your 60 affluent white neighbors are not going to effect structural change to suit your highly specific wants (not needs)? You come on here about every two weeks publicly wringing your hands because your white 3 year old and 1 year old will have to attend school -- as it stands now -- with children of color whose parents did not get a Masters of Public Policy from U. of Michigan. Your fear that you may not be able to customize a PUBLIC resource to your highly specific wishes is palpable. (Hey! What if we drew a line around my rowhouse and Dave's and Brandon's, and possibly a few other rowhouses on this block, but ONLY if the current owners sell before 2015, AND they sell to a white couple who both have grad degrees and Hill experience .. otherwise, just me and Dave and Brandon's kids should go to this tiny school that we'll create walking distance to our house with preference for both proximity AND HHI. ANd DCPS will pay for us to have this sweet, little separate school that must be kept below 13.6% FARMS at all time, and if that percentage creeps up above 14%, then DCPS should revisit boundaries to lop off those 3 rental rowhouses where the single moms lives so their children can't be in the same building as my Acclerated Learners (who are 2 and 3, mind you, but then again, I have a Masters from U. MIchigan and work for the Senate Committee on Nonsense, did I mention that? So I'm pretty sure my white 2 year old will in fact be an Accelerated Learner. Anyway, do you guys have any thoughts on how my three neighbors with JDs and I can get our own little sweet school on the taxpayers dime, while redlining out the black kids? [/quote] This is awful. You are a bad person. Shame on you.[/quote]
