    It is not about me, it is about teaching kids and you bigotry is certainly not helping.

    No, pretending there is no problem is not helping. Sorry if it hurts your feelings, but your feelings don't matter.

    How is her assumption bigoted? Schools are dumbing things down for certain people, they even get bonus points on their college entrance exams.

    A point some made earlier is that maybe these schools are filled with kids who are, for a variety of reason, incapable of being educated, so the schools just go through the motions and move meat.

    We know the Democrats were for locking down the schools. As a result, kids lost an entire year of in-house teaching. Those who were all on board with locking down the schools are complicit in the dumbing down of America's kids.

    The schools won’t be blamed because that means the teachers, admins and unions will look bad. When a 25 year old uneducated man can’t get a job that’s when the blame game starts, and like I said, it won’t be the culture, the parenting or the schools because those excuses pin things down to specifics. Instead the reason why the guy can’t do math is because our educational system is racist, biased, doesn’t take into account things that happened 200 hundred years ago, and so on. Blaming nameless people and becoming the victim is a very popular thing these days.

    Congratulations. You were challenged to man-up and you failed to meet the challenge. I knew you would.

    You're not answering with anything that makes any sense. What I said is able to be backed up with facts, yet it upsets you. That's not my problem.

    So you're arguing it's the culture, parents, and the institutions fault... in contrast to the society... because those are different things from society apparently. Personally, I would blame the schools, among other things... and I would argue that most of those students would do better in another neighborhood and another school.

    To be honest, I’m not personally blaming anything specific, but the things you mentioned are probably part of the problem.

    Explaining the obvious as to why what a student learns at home affects their efforts in the classroom is wasted if you can't figure it out on your own.

    Your inability to grasp simple sentences is your problem alone.
    You made up crap about what I said, the furthest thing from facts.
    Lack of posting integrity is.

    No one truly knows yet because as soon as it's mentioned, everyone gets their panties bunched and starts calling those who bring it up bigots and racists. Hence why the problem is getting worse rather than better.

    Can anyone find one single school that is majority black that is successful and shows average or above average test scores?

    Lefties are usually so quick to identify races, except at times like this, they dance around that.

    Bullshit. People just do not like to admit to failure.
    Yes, when bigotry is not the guiding factor it is easy.

    I see you're new here, you have a lot to learn if you don't find yourself on too many ignore lists. Your debate skills are leaving a lot to be desired.

    But clearly not from you. Bigotry, right wing delusion and dishonesty in posting are not my interests.
