Were you ever bussed? My brother, who is white, sat in an auditorium full of blacks as the teacher shouted "now you white kids know what its like to be a minority" and all the black kids started shouting and laughing and clapping. My brother wasinthe 7th grade and this was 1987.

You can take that crap your shoveling and shovel it elsewhere.

I have plenty of stories I could tell you like that.

Your reaction to what I said is just as ridiculous as the bussing policy was--classic overreaction. You don't fix racism by punishing white children. And you don't equate the experience of a black person who grew up in 1950's American with a white kid who suffered a brief humiliating experience in the 80's. There's simply no comparison.
