As the Huffington Post put it: “American Schools Are STILL Racist, Government Report Finds.” The evidence? “Five percent of white students were suspended annually, compared with 16 percent of black students, according to the report.” Q.E.D.According to theory, there’s NO WAY blacks and Hispanics are doing things that require more school discipline than whites or Asians. So if more black students are expelled than Asians, well, gentlemen, we have our proof of racism. To comply, schools would have to stop suspending black kids for breaking a teacher’s jaw, but suspend Asians for dropping an eraser.
Using the same logic, I could close the achievement gap between blacks and Asians in a single day by going to every principal’s office in the country and burning the transcripts. (Liberals are saying, “You know, that’s not a bad idea.”)
The “school-to-prison pipeline” argument for racial quotas in discipline was hatched in education schools and black studies departments. What I want to know is: How did they test the idea? MORE

Statistics….choose the ones that fit the desired narrative, leave out the ones that don’t and you have the proverbial “settled” argument.
Black is white, right is wrong, up is down, obama is a brilliant scholar…blah, blah, f**king blah.
And the progs will refuse to see. Anyone who dares speak the truth will be shouted down and called a fascist.
So it was the school systems failure that led to a inordinate percentage of Blacks aspiring to a higher degree in incarceration ?
Facts are racist.
That’s a fact. Which is racist. Or something.
I guess that since the little bastards go off to skool with little or no discipline (in the first place), no father, no mother that ain’t on crack, meth, or muscatel, and a natural antipathy towards indoctrination and authority, it’s racist to try to civilize them?

It would appear, according to the DemoRATs own arguments, that mixing the various races simply does not work!
Progs are anti science, does no good to quote statistics.
