re: #578 Fat Bastard Vegetarian
I wish I had gone to a private school. The public schools I went to were scary. My high school was shut down for three days in my sophomore year because of a race riot.
As a five foot two, 110 lb white kid; it was the scariest day of one of many, many scary days for me.
I wish I had gone to a public high school. Being the only 90 lb Black kid in a sea of white bigots for 4 years was no crystal stair, either.
