O'Reilly gives a spot on assessment of the Ferguson situation.

Incidentally, Michael Brown was going to be entering college in a few days. But he won't be registering now due to the fact that he's dead.

Where did you hear he was about to enter college "in a few days"? Was he going to be smoking those cigars he stole on his way to class? Or maybe sell them for some money to buy some dope? Or help fund his college education?

I heard the college thing on TV. Though it sounds made up to me, probably by his parents.
Brown doesn't strike me as college material.




Oh, and I loved the "good ole days"
 
You have yet to present any facts at all, just opinions. And opinions which are based on limited experience at that.

And, no, it's not "whitey's" fault that kids fail. I enumerated all that earlier today. So has the DOE. Nor have you presented any "reasons", just your own prejudices.


No, I have presented FACTS from 13 years of interacting with administrators, teachers, students and their parents .... both in 'successful' schools and 'failing' schools. The FACTS are irrefutable.

He just graduated high school in August .... given his academic achievements I don't think he was headed for any accredited college.
 
Except that it's actual data and not just the unsubstantiated opinion of one volunteer in one school.

What data? I saw two charts, neither of which had anything to do with any of his points.

Sure, it's actual data. You could have just put up average temperatures in August in Monaco and it would have been "actual data" if that was what you were going for.
 
Those who are genuinely interested in this whole "parents are to blame for everything" tack may want to look at the whole Rahm Emanuel/Chicago, Wm Hite/Philadelphia business. One can't help but wonder why these black parents are protesting so vehemently if they are so disinterested in their children's education.

I'm sure the union is front and center in that protesting. I'd like to know the $ spent per student in those closed school, the avg. graduation rate, and how many parents - who are protesting now - actually took any interest in helping their children while they are/were in school.

No one is saying other factors have nothing to do with the success of children in schools (money, teachers, etc). What we are saying is that the first line of defense against dropping out and bad behavior, etc, are the parents and it is their influence that sets that tone.
 
want their own children to excel, help them with homework from day one and set rules in the household. .

This is it in a nutshell...it doesnt matter if its from 2 parents that have great paying jobs or from a single grandmother who worked 2 jobs. Sorry, but you just don't get this from the black community in a consistent basis. Many are to busy chasing the dragon.
