Kamala Harris Calls for Federally Mandated Busing
National Review ^ | July 2, 2019 | John McCormack

Posted on 07/01/2019 9:52:22 AM PDT by C19fan

On Sunday, Kamala Harris expressed support for new, federally mandated busing policies. “I support busing. Listen, the schools of America are as segregated, if not more segregated, today than when I was in elementary school,” Harris said. “Where states fail to do their duty to ensure equality of all people and in particular where states create or pass legislation that created inequality, there’s no question that the federal government has a role and a responsibility to step up.”

As far as prejudice goes, I doubt that works. If white kids know about black people only from TV programs and commercials, they may have a better opinion of them than from knowing real-life individuals.

When I was a kid, they bussed kids from Boston out to my well-to-do town. I was a naïve little kid and I watched a lot of TV. So, as you indicate, I had no worries about any of the inner city kids. They were just like me, right?

It didn't take long for everyone to realize that the black kids stole things and started fights. Everyone avoided them as much as possible.

It did absolutely no good in our area. Just screwed up the neighborhood school system.....which worked for 100 years.

In this case, terminate the DoEd & property taxes and the parents+ can send their little brood to any institution of learning they want. Just write the check!

What about busing in Canada?

That's where she went to school from age 12. She graduated from Westmount High School in Westmount, Quebec.

Busing FAILED.

Even the people in the poor communities hated it. Kids getting up at 6 AM and getting home at 5? This is a good?

I was in middle school when they started busing to my suburban school. They had to lock down EVERYTHING. Fire extinguishers and hoses, chairs in the quad, EVERYTHING.

Haha. My snowflake relatives are like that. They’re very liberal but they make sure their children attend elite schools. Can’t be seen with “ghetto kids”, ya know?

I never had to deal with busing, but a friend of mine went to school in Canoga Park (L.A. County) and there were ghetto kids bused to his school that got into fights almost every day because they didn’t want to be there and the locals didn’t want them there. Total culture clash, resulting in actual physical clashes. Nobody won.

Even the liberals won’t put up with schools bussing their kids to the ghetto.

Camila Hairass is about to have her funding dry up.

The failure to uphold the working concept of neighborhood schools had as much to do with the decay of all urban skool systems than anything else

Those who condemned school busing were condemned by the elites, the ones who sent their brats to private schools regardless

So Biden passes the baton to Harris, who fumbles the baton under the bus. Who is next to pick up the baton? Spartacus?

How about school vouchers, Ms. Harris, so that parents unhappy with the public school system can send their children where they want?
