<p>Wha?! I think you've got me and another poster confused. No need to apologize. Distinct usernames are tricky...</p>
<p>Josh_AK, not that I completely disagree, but...</p>
<p>I live smack dab in the middle of the 3 biggest reses in MN. Yes, the schools suck, but at least around here they don't have to go to those schools. We shuttle kids from the reses over to my school. Quite a few of the kids from Red Lake actually started using that opportunity after the shooting.</p>
<p>Anyways, it'd be nice if more natives tried. All of them that do are very smart.</p>

I just call a spade a spade. I am not going to listen to people constantly blame the white man for everything, and constantly claim that minorities are superior to whites or that if whites didn't hold minorities down that they would be superior. Peoples of all races can be superior if they put their minds to it. I am just sick of people saying whites are inferior is all.

<p>Your perception of the world--extremely delusional I might add--does not justify what you've written. Besides... </p>
<p>Who has said that whites are inferior?? LOL. What planet are you on??? How many sociological, anthropological, psychological studies by people of repute have said that whties are inferior verses the converse, that NON-WHITES are inferior? And we're not just talking about ancient history. The Bell Curve wasn't written 100 years ago. It was written not 2 decades ago. You can't argue against this at all.</p>
<p>Regardless, two "wrongs" don't make a right. And in your case, you haven't even stated a "wrong." You have no right to make light of a horrible atrocity in human history. How do you think black people feel when you say something like that? Would you look them in the eye and say the very same thing? </p>

I sort of made a point in all this. People have been so brainwashed by the <whoever> that whenever someone puts out an opposing viewpoint besides that whitey is to blame for all problems in America, they get called a bigot and a racist in so many words. Call me whatever you want, they are just words. As soon as the rest of America realizes that words cannot hurt you, then they will be better off.

<p>State your point again. Without the bigotry or ignorance. You haven't clearly said anything. </p>
<p>Btw, your last sentence is completely false.</p>
<p>I completely agree with the original poster. It has really gotten out of hand in America.</p>
<p>"I totally agree with the person who said that "these people did not have the same opportunities". It is totally true. Have any of you ever lived in a res, village or extremely poor neighborhood? Have you ever even visited one?"- Josh_AK</p>
<p>Well, this could be true in some cases, my mother works in the poorest neighborhood in NYC, and I go there often, school does not look that great. I woudl ahve to say its because of the students themselves. Many do not want to learn etc.
If living in a ghetto would mean that you couldn't succeed then jews in europe and in the lower east side (manhattan) would be very unsucessfull. It is true that they had less opportunities, but its your mentality that will get you out of somewhere.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, those that live in those environments have a tougher time getting to that mentality.</p>

To pofreshnyc and nbachris2788,</p>
<p>why don't you two just say white power and get it over with rather than ******** me with your "logic"?</p>
<p>and nbachris2788, you are saying that i think aa is unfair just because I do not have high test scores, legacy, or poor background?</p>
