I saw this artcle on AOL this morning- not a good way to start my day!! I hate when people treat kids like this and I hope something is done about their intolerance!! Discrimination is wrong on all levels and children should never be exposed to this kind of behavior.
Re: Had to post this... grrr!!!
I haven't read it yet, but I am sure I know exactly what it is about....I heard about that pool incident this morning.
Those poor kids.
That pisses me right the he!! off.
ETA: Sorry, after this i will be puppies and rainbows, lol
This makes me so sad. It would be awful if it happened to anyone, but kids getting treated like that just makes my heart hurt.
I hope they get a giant settlement and laugh at these a-holes all the way through grad school.
I agree with this! And this quote from the story since I grew up near Philly...
"This is the sort of thing you'd hear about in 1966, during the height of the civil rights movement, not in 2009, and not in the City of Brotherly Love, of all places," he said.
It's ridiculous.
