Going to school at a top ten isn't just about washing dishes so you can go to class on an academic grant, it's about social networking. People can try to force blue blood out, but blood is blood and people at the top are staying there whether we like it or not. Everyone's fighting for these stupid places in institutions where their social impotence renders their newly found academic skills practically useless. Forget the American Dream, it is dead. In fact, it never existed. It was just a bunch of priviledged whites taking advantage of a culture that hadn't discovered gunpowder or written history. Stop fighting to get into garbage. Realize that the top of society will remain the top until further notice, but without a bottom there will be no top. If you are so offended and feel so lonely and isolated by being someplace you are on the basis of what you think it's future will do for you try doing something with your life that you enjoy and care about. If people want to be racist, let them. Stop trying to play in the sandbox if you don't like sand in your eyes. Forget the dream. Define your life outside of the institutional racism that caused you to glorify a college where you don't belong and are simply an AA number. Move on, this is America- we're about money now. That's just all there is to it. If you can’t pay the bill, go home.

In the spirit of the "three stooges", you adopt the philosophy that if Curly does something wrong, Larry deserves a poke in the eye. After all, they are both stooges, right?

People who are minorities demand equal rights and then some. How is that fair? There are plenty of whites in America who either cant afford or dont have access to good schools. Why don't they enjoy the benefits put in place to serve ethnic minorities? Especially considering that throughout our history these are the people we send to fight our wars, and not just the idiotic ones like Iraq, but the good ones like WWI and WWII. While it is true that a couple hundred years ago these places were started by racist whites, it doesn't apply today. White people are so scared of the backlash for saying anything remotely "racist" that they're too scared to do anything but heap love on everybody. Frankly, I find it to be a refreshing change of pace that these guys from the student magazine published that carol. God knows we have to put up with being the butt of ridicule everyday, whether it be in comedy or in song (rap). I'm not saying everybody should start making racist remarks to be funny now, but there has to be a balance or else one side becomes racist and, frankly, the balance tipped along time ago towards ethnic minorities. I mean Don Imus gets fired, these guys from the student paper get flack and all the while the racist Rev. Al Sharpton is still given the spotlight (he is racist. Check online and you will find numerous rants about Jews. He even called a politician in NYC a ni$#er whore!). So where does it end? Maybe we should only make fart jokes now, that way no one will get offended. Anywho, seems to me like the whites are getting to much of the stick from the media. LONG LIVE SOUTHPARK!!!
