“The only way I can lose this election is if I’m caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy.”

Yea, that hit me wrong too.   It’s sounds like she it trying to do a ‘Cali’ thing to a place that has no use for it.

I’ve lived in PA all of my life, and honestly had never heard of this term.

Marylander here, and we always call it “PA” like “pee-yay”, not “Penna”, which sounds an awful lot like someone who was pretending to be from Pennsylvania might call it to someone who wasn’t from PA, to sound like a local.

Was thinking the same thing and I spent time in Allentown. Never heard that even from someone out-of-state until now.

Couldn’t get past the first paragraph without commenting—who the hell refers to PA as Penna.?
(I say this as a native Western Pennsylvanian who grew up not far from Meadville)

Racism is the reason those kids can’t read.  

White people, even with objective evidence, will go racist because it’s inherent.

A teacher that’s got this kind of hatred in their heart has been taking it out on students as long as they’ve been there. The school’s been hiding it for ages.

I would modify your comment above from “there are certain educators who have no business teaching Black children” to “there are certain educators who have no business teaching. Period.”

So, this “science” teacher, after reviewing all the available evidence around her, came to assert the hypothesis that black children have special training in how to lie and therefore do it all the time?!?

“Klanmaid’s Tale” is a work of art.

Creepy, isn’t it? It’s like she had biracial children so she’d have easy targets for her obviously deep seated racism.

She’s stunningly bad, on so many levels, but it’s certainly possible that the worst thing about Durven Dawes’ lawyers was their client.

She’s out to fuck black people in every way imaginable. 

Take these kids away from her immediately. Full stop. No “well you get to see them during...” No, you lost that right. For good.

Why do motherfuckers insist on arguing about a real thing by bringing up imaginary shit?

That is a good example of the ignorance racists are known for: racists think they get to define a person’s racial identity, and that what that person thinks about themselves is null and void. Then they get all upset when a Black person calls them white! Chile, the stupid just goes on and on...

I mean they cling to those crime statistics that have been debunked so much they should be embarrassed. Then again after the last five years if we have learned anything it is that white people have no concept or understanding of that word

In past census surveys, more than 80% in this group have called themselves white, The Times analysis found.
