You know right away when they call this group ‘mostly Hispanic’ when any fool with eyes can see the truth, that truth is going to be honored mainly in the breach.

So white is the opposite of hispanic? Didn’t know that.

As I understand it, if a person from -- let's say Mexico -- commits a crime, that is recorded as a white person committing a crime.
But if a person from -- again, Mexico -- is a victim of a crime, then this is recorded as a minority being a crime victim.

Hispanics are either White or Non-White depending on the agenda.

The obvious question is why anyone would want to see any of Frida Kahlo’s crap to begin with.

Who’s paying for the lawsuit? Those aren’t cheap.

Sadly, the US does not require “loser pays,” so everybody pays. Lawyers love it.

One group had reservations and one did not?

A month before the alleged incident in the Bronx, a group of mostly black Brooklyn high school kids were kicked out of the Guggenheim just 20 minutes into their visit, after a few were accused of unruly behavior.

I was in an art museum in Baltimore recently and a group of urban kids came in, shouting, running, putting their hands all over the art and ignoring their teachers and the guards completely. The guards, who were all black men, were looking at me for sympathy. I remarked to one of them (they were older men and I am retired, too), "When we were kids, the teachers would have paddled any of us who acted that way," to which he replied, "And then we would get it again when we got home."

School groups are supposed to make reservations for such large groups. Did the charter school make a reservation? Were there problems with the behavior of some of their students? Did they come on time? These and other questions are not addressed in this very poorly written article, which mixes 2 different stories into one. This gorgeous garden, which I have visited many times, has a very large educational program for students; I can’t imagine they would bar students unless there was a serious problem such as I stated above.
