Penalize the successful and you will only breed failure. But then I suppose they already know that. Failure may very well be the goal.

To Communists, “equality” means smashing everybody down to the same level of misery.

The Honors and AP classes in our school system, I have just discovered, are regular classes with the regular mix of kids and the honors/Ap kids do extra work outside of the class. So there are none of the in depth discussions that occur with high level high functioning kids in a room with a talented teacher. Same drivel for the massess only more independent work.
So why bother?

This little problem will take care of itself over time, as the percentage of minority students is growing exponentially.

“This is absurd.”
The absurd is normal to liberals. Years from now, every application form be it credit cards or home loan, will be accepted, as long as you ain’t a cracka’..

“The fact that there are people in the world who think that this is a good idea is sad.
The fact that people who subscribe to this ideology are in control of the public school system is terrifying.”
This is the same mentality (and group) that thinks the solution to gun CRIME is to punish all the LAW ABIDING gun owners.
Very Stalinistic thinking.

>> The proposal is aimed at addressing “Berkeleys dismal racial achievement gap.”
It is this a uniform gap, or just a problem for a few districts including Berkeley?
Seems like we may need an education revolution that puts education first and eradicates the self-serving, repressive and destructive Leftwing schemes.

That was the underlying theme of The Incredibles that’s why it resonated to a lot of conservatives. “If everyone is special, then no one is.”
