Individual competitions are cool...

But in every county in every state in the USA, our passion to give free crap away for votes and opened our doos to illegal everyones has utterly destroyed our public schools.

Destroyed.

They are standing in front of a quote by the world’s foremost mathematician and the inventor of the Math Olympiad, Hillary Rodman Clinton.

well, clearly the MAA is a regressive homophobic, misogynistic, racist, xenophobic organization. And it’s Trump’s fault.

Interesting.

People should be given the appropriate credit for their work, regardless of their gender.

I’m shocked they’re still allowed to have white coaches.

There are other things, at which girls and women are better.

I know you are baiting me to say: ironing, dish washing, laundry, sweeping; but I won’t!

Nothing about that picture is surprising … and anybody who says it “doesn’t look like America” can pound sand.

Yes. Our President should invite them to the White House...and it's quite likely they would consider it an honor.

Well crap, now that American Thinker, of all places, has called them out on this, the Rats will mount an assault on math competitions so these upstarts can “check their privilege”.

They should put together an all-female team of transgenders. That is, the same guys just wearing wigs and makeup.

The coaches are 100% non-POC.

So what? They were consistently proving they were the best.


Meritocracy has no place in a leftist world.

2+2=4....always. It's how the real world works. The Left thinks otherwise, and sometimes I think they really do, and believes all viewpoints should be valued.

In a Leftie world 2+2 could equal 5....because that is valued more than 4.

here be La’Shawn, Jamal, and Shatoya?”

Maybe if they re-wrote the word problems to calculate profits from grams of cocaine and similar there’d be more diversity. Or ratios figuring years in prison in relation to crimes committed, and relevant percentages. Or welfare payouts based on the number of sperm donors that are connected to one unwed mother. Things that M16 and gang thugs use in their day-to-day lives.

(I do wonder why more blacks don’t get involved in these types of competitions. I’ve met several who can kick ass in math.)

I remember the day in elementary school when my brain suddenly grasped the gazinta concept — the long division part. I was so happy!

That team is sexist AND racist!! No women and no blacks? No Native Americans...I don't know if any are gay, but I don't see a rainbow flag in the picture...we can't have this team...

Do I need a /s?

#35: "I do wonder why more blacks don’t get involved in these types of competitions."

It's because it is stigmatized within the black community. It is called "acting white". Young black students who try to succeed academically are bullied and beaten down and accused of "acting white".

It's been recongized as the "bucket of crabs" effect. If you've ever seen a basket full of live crabs, when one tries to escape the basket, the others grab it and drag it back in.

U.S. Team Takes First Place at European Girls’ Mathematical Olympiad....

I tried to post the girls’ photo, but I get a complete blank.

Not even a small square with an “x” in it.

First time that’s happened.
