Title: Forced De-Segregation 2017 Style
Post by: AUTailgatingRules on April 25, 2017, 11:46:50 AM
So Gardendale voted a couple years ago to spin out of Jefferson County and start Gardendale City Schools.  The county sued and a federal judge put the new system on hold pending litigation.  The County's issue is that Gardendale will become too white if we were to move forward.  Gardendale currently busses minorities in from north Birmingham in order to racially integrate our schools at a level the county and state deem appropriate. 

The judge has now ruled, and in effect stated the following:  If Gardendale can prove that it can attract enough black kids into their system over the next 3 years, we will allow them to break off and start their own system.  In doing so the new Gardendale system MUST also employ at least 1 black school board member.

See article that helps explain below

Thoughts?

I think that even if they form a city school, they'll start listening to the hippy hop and dropping it like its hot once the busing starts.

Should not a school system be made up of the area's inhabitants?

Why should anyone be bused anywhere?

Social engineering is a great thing. Just look at Detroit.   #winning

I go back to what I've always said.  Left alone people naturally gravitate to those most like themselves.  Ethnically. Financially. Culturally. 

So leave it the fuck alone.

In every aspect of life this holds true.
