[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes when a kid at Whitman uses the N word people react like when a public official says it, when a kid at Kennedy uses it people just roll their eyes and say that is what Kennedy kids do. We govern our schools with the same expectations we govern the classes[/quote]

Always amazed that there are so many people who think it's so unfair that white kids don't get to say that word.[/quote]

Always amazed that black people think that you can punish one side but not the other. Test scores not good enough-let em in. Not enough money-let them live there anyway. Data makes us look bad, that’s racist. Too many criminals, system is racist too.  :roll:

If you want a social construct where one side can use it and the other can’t what ever, still means the same thing. But legal is black and white, schools either allow it or don’t. And who wants to bet the poor kids at Kennedy are going around using the N word left and right? I’ll take that bet[/quote]

Doo you believe that crack addicts are treated the same as cocaine addicts?[/quote]

Crimes involving crack tend to be more violent, including crimes committed by the addicts, compared to cocaine. As with all crimes, violence is an aggravating factor leading to more severe punishment.[/quote]

No they are not. There have been hundreds of studies done about that.

You just believe black people are more violent and associate crack with black and have drawn your own conclusion ... which is literally the definition of racist.

You probably think declaring bankruptcy is a fine way to screw people out of money too. [/quote]

Here's one on NIH's site:

[quote]
... Vaughn et al. (2010) found that crack was associated with higher likelihood of violence in bivariable analyses, there was no increased likelihood for violence after controlling for demographics, mood disorders, and other substance use disorders.[/quote]

On a pure numbers level (without controlling for other factors) crack was indeed associated with a higher level of violence...
