It was an insulting response. I’m not a bleeding heart liberal, and I certainly believe people need to be responsible for their actions, but this was just a dumb thing to say.

Schools were a lot better when we were able to stupid shame people. Lazy and incompetent people deserved to be shamed.

Most problems can be traced back to the home lives

Lol so they put up a token student who can read a newspaper yet don’t address the failing system?

I'm not sure that helped their case as much as they believed.

We can't substantially refute your comment with data, so here's one kid who isn't illiterate.

The board member shouldn't have apologized unless he was actually proven wrong.

That kid is probably their valedictorian but would be a B- student at a majority school.

Have to see the problem before it can be fixed. The race pimps will keep convincing blacks racism is to blame for their shite neighborhoods

If I were a parent in the audience and heard some a-hole say that about my kids and his classmates I would have beat his arse. Totally unprofessional taking a shot at children like that. F that guy.

I agree. It was also extremely warranted.

What was more insulting is these kids don’t have a chance because the “adults” that should be raising them are more interested in playing the race/victim card instead of acknowledging the cold, hard truth and taking fricking responsibility for the “community” they claim to support.

You wouldn't do jack shite you fricking whining little bitch. Your kids are probably the type that attorney was talking about based on your posts here.

If your kid were in that school, chances are you're in prison or an absentee father.

Schools are products of the population. If a school is failing, its because the students don't have the capacity to learn and their parents are irresponsible.

I won't go that far. There are some very intelligent inner-city kids. The problem is these kids are ridiculed for being smart and caring about school whereas it's cool to not give a shite and be a thug. We have to change the mindset of those children and it starts with an emphasis on education at home. It's damn near impossible for these struggling schools to motivate children to strive for success when it's not expected from their parent(s).
