My son’s school was in lock down once, and I was lied to about it. It happened exactly at pick up time, and the school was locked down, parents locked out- no one to answer the phone and no one had any idea of what was going on.

Then when I finally saw my son, he told me that they were late because they had to pass out report cards.

Then I found out he was taken into the auditorium with the entire school and told, by the principal, not to talk to parents or the press about what had happened with lock down.

Then I found out they had found a kid selling pot in the locker room from another parent. When I talked to the principal about the POV of the parent waiting for the children to come out and facing a locked building, she told me that the school was NOT locked. That was her answer to everything.

It was a total farce and I was so pissed off.

I wouldn’t trust any public school employee about a single thing.

White kid at a SE ATL school?

Probably was bullied by the blacks.

I know some east side ATL neighborhoods have been colonized/gentrified by young white hipsters from other parts of the country.

They always looked shocked on the news when they are victims of the ubiquitous crime there.

They didn't seem toget the memo that ATL is one of the most crime-ridden places in the country.

Interesting, but what difference would it make if he were gay? Did he force his lifestyle upon you and society? Did he flaunt about with his “partner”? Dd he try to indoctrinate children? Dd he try to change existing marriage laws?

No? Then why dig? Just curiosity?

This is a reasonably tough area. Go about 2 miles further south and it is a war zone, but this is not exactly pristine territoriy.

I don’t know, nor do I know where to find out factual info. I read kids’ biographies of him as a child and he was sort of a hero to me.

Then a few years ago I read more stuff indicating he was a homosexual. So it looks from what you posted, and what I read before (he was into men massaging each other, and there might be more details I can’t remember) that he may indeed have been homosexual. I guess the best that could be said is that at least he didn’t push the homo agenda.

It would be good if a truthful historian could look into it but that is not likely to happen.

And we're going to hear this kind of stuff Ad nauseam for the next month as Black History Month descends upon the land. Why not set aside the entire school year to teach actual American History each and every month?

By the way, that's among the reasons why I seek to find out if George Washington Carver was a homosexual. If it turns out that he was and is celebrated throughout February as a hero, it's another reason why Black History Month is a complete fraud.

87% Black
12% Hispanic
1% Asian
0% White

If it’s true the suspect is white then much of the blame falls on the parent/s who knowingly put the kid into a 0% White environment.

I'll respect you if you'll do likewise for me. So I kindly ask that you use a term other than "gay" to describe those who are this sort of sexual deviant. I'm 70 and recall a better era when "Deck the Halls" could be sung without a snicker with the lyrics, "don we now our gay apparel". I'd like to see the word "gay" restored to its rightful meaning before it was sullied by the homosexual lobby.

That said, it is mostly to satisfy to my curiosity since there are conflicting narratives about George Washington Carver. And, as I've stated elsewhere in this thread, with "Black History Month" approaching, I'd simply like to know if an individual portrayed as a hero was actually a sodomite.

I'll confess that I take a harder line than many (even some here on FR) regarding this issue. Even if one is discreet about the practice, it's still an abomination in the eyes of Almighty God. And I think if Carver were a deviant, he could have sought redemption from Christ, repented and changed his lifestyle. My hope is that he was merely eccentric or an "odd duck" as we used to say.

In closing, I thank you for your thought-provoking response and I hope that, with my candor, I've provided an explanation.

what we need is more laws to stop lawbreakers from breaking the current laws. Only by passing more restrictive laws and creating a more burdensome environment for law abiding citizens will criminals think twice about breaking the additional new laws that will not add anything to their sentences and be used as a bargaining chip by the defense to get lighter sentencing.

The media obviously - including Fox - can’t wait to hype this up breathlessly as another mass-murder incident.

It’s sounding all the while just another over-aggressive fight gone bad with common thugs. Just like that event in TX last week at the special college. Nothing but common fight with guns that happened to be at a school, but we had to have coverage all day.

Wiki (I know) says he had a woman around 40.

Don’t underestimate the desire of homos and their apologists to turn every single famous man into 1 of them, for normalcy and acceptance.

Give the man a break, he was elder. He may not’ve wanted marriage but wanted companionship in his elder years. He may’ve been a confirmed bachelor. My uncle was after his jilting by a woman he was crazy about. He was not gay, although he always lived alone, dying at age 88 by himself. Damned good conservative. Anyway I think it’s possible men can
be good pals who live together.
