A bigoted superintendent that doesn't know simple grammar. They should get rid of him.

[The_Reader_David]

It's not his grammar that's the problem, it's his knowledge of word meanings.

If I say "It seems to me that x is being discriminating," I am attributing to x well-honed (aesthetic) sensibilities in whatever narrow context my utterance is made, but I am speaking grammatical English. (Were I to want to attribute the same fine aesthetic sensibilities to x more generally, I would say, "It seem to me that x is discriminating.")

Discriminating used to be a good thing. Before the PC police and the wacky left hijacked it to mean denial of civil rights.

We need to take back the English language! The fact is Mr. Superintendent, people are very wise to be discriminating in their peers and who they choose as friends, who they are surrounded by. It is how one keeps themselves safe, and law abiding citizens. To suggest otherwise, is to say kids should be befriending thugs and criminals and drug users, ETC.....

People discriminate every day.........between stores, restaurants, food, clothing, every part of our lives. And we have something in this country called freedom. Freedom of association is a huge part of that!
