Could it be that the White students dont want to listen to crap music

Not likely. Most teeny music in the last 100 years in America has been bastardized white versions of black ideas.

separate, private party for whites only

It's private, therefore within their rights but as I tell my children: "Just because you have a right to do a thing, doesn't make it the right thing to do".

[freepy smurf]

It's called freedom of association.

Amen and it's the most essential of all human rights.

[staytrue]

Suppose the entire country decided not to associate with or speak to a freeper with the screen name guillermo. I think all freedoms have certain limits. No freedoms are absolute.

[Khepera]

Morality? Maybe they find the blacks in their area to be ruffians and trouble makers and don't feel safe around them. That may not be it at all but we don't know. We cannot even say they are being stupid because we don't really know thei situation.

[Guillermo]

If they decided to, that's their right.

I do not have a right to be heard (or read).

[Belial]

Maybe they find the blacks in their area to be ruffians and trouble makers and don't feel safe around them.

Or more likely, these kids are descended from inbred hicks who still put on the white robes when they've drunk too much moonshine.

[Khepera]

maybe its not a color difference but a cultural one.

[demosthenes the elder]

I don't see how the exercise of a constitutional right can be "wrong"

Tell me...
Do you consider BET "wrong"?
Do you consider the Black Congressional Congress "wrong"?
Do you consider Jet, Essence, and the many other black-only publications "wrong"?
Do you consider Christian chrches which exclude Muslim Imams from delivering a sermon "wrong"?
Would you consider a restaurant which served nothing but Southern BBQ (by definition: PORK) and thus exclusive of devout Jews and Muslims (and Vegetarians and PETAns) "wrong"?
Do you consider Men's (private) Clubs which exclude women "wrong"?
Do you consider Women's (private) Clubs "wrong"?
Do you consider conservative websites which are actively hostile to dithering Leftists "wrong"?

Freedom of Association is ALWAYS right... even if it IS silly.

You know maybe I was to quick to answer the first time. We don't know the whole story behind this. We have to realize that as people who are trying to create a fairer based society we are being flanked from some Blacks out there. The school in question could be a victim of blacks engaging in volunteer segregation.

I specifically have an instance of this happening at the University of Houston. The Black Fraternities will get in front of the university student center and Paddle each other. They artificially inflate their numbers to turn it into a huge gathering. Of course the Dean of Students DR. Munson is too smart to play into their hands. He lets them show the world just how stupid they are.

This attitude has to be nipped in the bud before it gets out of control. I for one use to be an adamant non-racists but I have no desire to go out on a limb for them any more. I have seen things like this, and have had too many personal experiences to name, to back the movement anymore. I am tired of being stabbed in the back by these UN types.

[Guillermo]

I agree with you.

I wouldn't have gone to that prom, and I certainly would not allow a child of mine to attend either (I don't have kids).

[grapeape]

Now that would be a funny madTV skit!

[MineralMan]

"I wouldn't have gone to that prom, and I certainly would not allow a child of mine to attend either (I don't have kids)."

These kids have a perfect right, of course, to boycott their school prom and hold their own party on the same night. I'm hoping that the vast majority of the kids at that school decide to attend the school prom and share this event with all their fellow students. Let the others have their little party. Maybe they'll feel foolish when not many show up.

What would be really nice is if the popular kids and the natural leaders at the school, both white and black, made it clear that "they" were going to the official school prom and that anyone who went to this racist prom wasn't cool at all, but a loser.

I'm betting, actually, that's just what happens.

[demosthenes the elder]

I'm aware of that, vis-a-vis the general climate. I was trying to sound agyg's consistency (or lack thereof) to better know with whom I am dealing.
