November 9, 1989 – Dismantling of the Berlin Wall

Well, be that as it may, Lioncourt, and his kind, are hypocrites of the first order. Their wetware is unlike ours in that their ethics are completely situational. What is right for one is completely wrong for the other.

Having identical facilities with identical funding, even though separate, is horrendously wrong for Blacks and justifies the US government usurping its role as the servant of the people. Instead, in one fell swoop, it assumed the role as the Master of the Masses, at the point of National Guard guns.

That court-ordered micromanagement has lasted 50 years and has added millions to the costs of education, while driving educational standards through the floor.

But, as I said, all Leftist ethics are situational.

Weathervaning 180 degrees, All Girls Schools are A-OK and must be protected, because otherwise those poor, poor girls are hounded by evil rotten boys.

Brown was wrong — horrendously wrong, on a number of levels, a couple of which I have already alluded to.

First, the province of the Court is to say what the law IS — NOT what it SHOULD be. They are not to make law from the bench.

That is the exclusive province of the Legislature (legis = law + slature = to write)

The Founders divided government into 3 co-equal branches to guard against too much power being concentrated in any one branch. They specifically wanted to avoid the Judge-Jury-and-Executioner authorities being concentrated in any one person or branch. Like Lord Acton said, absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Well, if you see the difference from what the Founders intended, and certainly what they warned us against, you will see that we have strayed far from what they wanted.

More to the point, we have been led deeply into that red-demarcated territory they warned us against, otherwise known as tyranny.

Anyone who has dealt with the arrogance of top-level educational administrators will know of what I speak. The Harry Potter character Dolores Umbridge exists in real life, and at many levels of the educational system.

Secondly, government may do certain things, which are supposedly the task of government, assuming those things have a rational basis.

Not only did the Brown court have no egal authority to seize the powers they usurped, they failed even to have a factual basis to do what they did.

They basically used feelings to arrive at the justification for their action, as opposed to any authoritative studies.

Even if you gave them the benefit of the doubt at the beginning, somewhere between then and now, any reasonable observer could see the vast amount of damage that was being done to the US educational system, how are children have been getting dumbed down, how standards have fallen, both academically and discipline-wise, and the vastly-increased financial burdens occasioned by court-ordered measures.

If there had been a rational basis in 1954, however slight, by 1964, 1974, and 1984, you could see with increasing clarity the damage being done by Court-ordered measures.

Thus, on a factual basis, Brown has failed to justify the measures taken against the damage it has caused.

But most importantly, Brown represents a massive breach in the compact between Citizen and Government.

The Brown court seized a huge, Unconstitutional amount of authority for itself.

Whose country is this? Who is in control? Citizen or Government?

The Court, far from being the Guardian of the Constitution that it has been charged to be, seized near-unlimited rule-making power to itself and authority over cities, states, families and specifically the children of US citizens.

Thus the dimwits like Lioncourt speak as Statists and take it as given that the State has proper authority over the Citizen.

Brown really has been a turning point against freedom in the United States, and by now, most of the citizenry are unaware of the enormity of the breach against the Constitution, and the Giant Step towards tyranny that Brown represents.

June 6, 1944.

What? What? What?

No one cited this date? Did I miss it?

December 15, 1791 – Bill of Rights is adopted.

Or this:

April 19, 1775 – Concord and Lexington

Lastly, Brown v. Board of Education is a date which will live in infamy, since — on the flimsiest of legal pretexts, the Federal government took over the US education system, which until that moment, was strictly a local matter. Based on intangible considerations, the government purported to tell the People what to do with their children, literally at the point of a gun, instituting their own form of government-enforced discrimination which has lasted to this day. Did a rising tide lift all boats?

Now, kids can’t read, can’t do math, don’t know where in the world X is, are strung out on cocktails of Ritalin and Prozac, at conditioned to jump are the mere word gun, taught to despise Christians, our Founders and that Timmy has Two Daddys.

All boats have been affected, but the tide, evidently, has been going out.

Brown said that “separate but equal” was wrong. It said that having two separate education systems based on race was unconstitutional.

And yet the “liberals” have created exactly that.

Go figure.

You hypocritical immoral bastard.

I agree. Water fountains, lunch counters and where people sat on the bus are also local matters. How dare those darkies want the same education, food or dignity as our superior race?

Awww, take a bow Lioncourt. You guys sure gave those “darkies” the same education. I mean, just look at the schools of Chicago, Washington DC, Philadelphia and Baltimore among many other places.

Why, how successful you’ve been! Take another bow. Watch it! There’s a little dropout behind you with a gun, and he ain’t taking no shit. Be careful, for your Great Society has created monsters. Take another bow!

I don’t deny we have problems with our education system, but anybody who believes it is because Brown v. Board of Education is a narrow minded bigot.

Brown said that “separate but equal” was wrong. It said that having two separate education systems based on race was unconstitutional. They were not only legally, but morally right.

1) George Washington’s Inauguration.

2) John Adams’s Inauguration.

3) Thomas Jefferson’s Inauguration

4) James Madison’s Inauguration

5) James Monroe’s Inauguration…

6)………..

43) George W. Bush’es Inauguration.

This is an awesome top ten list, it reminds me of 9th grade history. You should post this to my buddy’s site http://www.toptentopten.com/ and you can link back to your site. You can also let other people vote on the rankings if you want.

Having identical facilities with identical funding, even though separate, is horrendously wrong for Blacks and justifies the US government usurping its role as the servant of the people.

Well they didn’t have identical funding, they didn’t have identical facilities and everybody knew it. The White schools were better.

First, the province of the Court is to say what the law IS–NOT what it SHOULD be. They are not to make law from the bench.

It is called the Equal Protection clause. It is in the 14th Amendment, look it up sometime. They Supreme Court was enforcing the law of the land.

You act as if you are some great Constitutional Scholar, yet you seem to be only casually familiar with the document.

You want to know what the problem with education is in this country, it is that nobody respects it.

Smart people are called geeks, yet we idolize the jocks.
The salaries we give teachers is laughable if you want the best and the brightest to even consider teaching.
We are told that “Joe sixpack” should be President, when really we should want somebody who is far smarter and educated than average.
The Republicans nominate a “hockey mom” for vice president who clearly didn’t understand the issues or even the responsibilities of the job.

If you want to fix education it needs to be a cultural change that has nothing to do with Brown v. Board of Education.

And just to clarify history, the Supreme Court did not order the National Guard to do anything, that was a Republican President.

I use her line of male fragrances & toiletries.

“Top Ten events in American History more historic than Obama’s Inauguration.”

1. Kool-Aid discovered in 1952 by nuclear scientist’s trying to dispose of nuclear waste in Nevada.
2. The Hula hoop.
3. Opera windows on a 1976 Chevrolet Impala.
4. Disco Music.
5. The American public realizing that Jimmy Carter had a better future in peanuts than American governance.
6. Bill Clinton, discovering in 1998 that a pant’s zipper actually could be put in the upward position.
7. Hillary Clinton, discovering in 1998 that Bill was unaware that the zipper actually worked since she had not seen his pecker in years.
8. Barney Frank, discovering and trying to ban zippers on men’s pant’s in 1998.
9. The end of the world in the year 2000, after Ted Danson declared the end of the world unless we stopped pissing in waterways that emptied the 10 Oceans on the Earth.
10. John McCain, the American hero he is, trying to portray himself as an American conservative.

Evidently, it was a wasted education.

If you have the education you profess to have, it still hasn’t afforded you the ability to process the history of the world around you and understand that the Socialist tripe you would love to engraft into the Constitution is something that doesn’t belong there. The Court exceeded its authority in Brown. It doesn’t surprise me in the least, that, as a Statist, you would welcome the outcome they arrived at.

Nor has it given you the ability to distinguish between the Utopian so-called theory of Socialism and the murderous history that has unfolded in the practice of Socialism.

You believe that the the Supreme Court can’t look at the facts of a case.

Read again, Brainchild. The SCOTUS pulled its facts out of its 4th Point of Contact and made no reference to authoritative studies. Exactly opposite what you are suggesting.

Don’t tell me.

You skipped school the day they taught law at Law School.

And yes, the resort to calling those who disagree with you bigoted, racist, homophobic is standard fare for you Leftards.

Not that I really care, however for the record, homosexuals and Leftist vermin such as yourself disgust me.

It’s not fear.
