[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people are still missing the point, and going all over the map on this one simple issue. Many local people are not upset about getting rid of the name J.E.B. Stuart, they are mainly upset about 4 things: a. The NAACP stuck their nose in a “local” issue, with less than a 10% African American student body. b. They coerced and corrupted the School Board to put forth their own agenda, to change the name of a school from a white person to a black person. [b]c. If the name has to be changed, why does it have to be changed to a black person? d. If they name were changed to something less controversial, nobody would care and there would be no issue at all (except for the NAACP of course).[/b] This is happening all across America, it is costing taxpayers billions of dollars and people are now dying as a result of this misplaced agenda. And once again, the NAACP has divided a once peaceful and serene community to put forth their own agenda. It is time to stop dividing America with this nonsense about names and focus on more important things. That other person was right, look to the future, not the past... [/quote] You are blaming the national divide on NAACP? WTF? There wouldn't be a divide if we all pushed for equal rights and equality. And if we could all let go of painful reminders of our racist past/present. Why are YOU choosing to be against the NAACP and/or any other group promoting civil rights and equality? YOU are choosing to make another side, to create this divide. YOU are the problem. [b]Also, how exactly is changing the name to a black person "controversial"? [/b] [/quote] Or an answer to this? [/quote] I imagine the person that wrote that was trying to stir things up. There is no answer for that. Who knows who wrote it. [/quote]
