Yes. But I despair of that happening when many people in certain odd zip codes talk about their property values rather than social justice (and let's be clear, this is not about property values plummeting, just about how fast they'll rise).[/quote]

Maybe there are those people.  But accusing everyone in that zip code, or the "north" in general, of racism and other sundry defects is a great way to force otherwise sympathetic people into an "us vs them" mindset.[/quote]

I agree. I think there are a handful of posters in here on both sides who really derailed this thing. And I don't believe they all live in the same zip codes. I also think the more out-there posts came from anti-diversity trolls who pop into numerous threads all over this board to chime in with their hate. I think they found us by accident, and keep coming back to poke us for shits and giggles. And the reaction to those jokers was misdirected at other Arlington residents.

This process is evidence to me that the "Arlington Way" is just not working. The level of vitriol this generated is a guarantee that there will never be a 4th Comprehensive HS built that would require all the boundaries to be redrawn. W-L is going to get another school built right on their campus, full of 1,300 students who will be sharing their communal spaces and facilities. [/quote]
