>At Taylor County High School in Butler, GA, where just

>This sickens me. What the hell is wrong with people in
>the united states that we can't manage to penetrate
>the backwaters of the south with a clear unified
>message to nock it the fuck off with the racist
>bullshit. The school officials are apparently so
>terrified of rocking the boat by taking an anti-racial
>discrimination stance that they completely washed
>their hands of the entire event and the prom is now a
>private party giving the organizers the right to
>discriminate as they choose. Consequently students
>have been, except for last year, honoring the

>HELLO Taylor County, Martin Luther King Jr. marched on
>the white house over 40 YEARS ago and told us about

>that they still can't manage to get with the program?
>The next time you hear some banter from a well-to-do
>W.A.S.P. about how we've gone too far with Affirmative
>Action, letting liberal rights groups have too much
>power, about how ridiculous it is to attempt to be
