Who knew Thunderf00t was a racist and religious bigot...
I'm really shocked that he simlifies things to a wingnut mouth-breather argument and not something more intellectual.
What kind of retard applies an act like 9/11 to an entire religion... I mean what about all the christian fundamentalist bombers and attacks.



Agreed. The whole tone of the video is one of purposefully instigating fear of Islam. I know several muslims and they guard their right to speak openly as much as anyone. The video simply lacked balance. A fundamentalist is a fundamentalist, regardless of belief.

Weird that Al Gore is pimping this awful charter shit. It is wingnuts with a money grab at tax dollars.

What is going on is that contracts are up to manage and run some multimillion dollar LA schools and Green Dot and others are trying to get access to the easy money.


You should google a little.... and now.. the rest of the story... on Locke High...

Green Dot has been described as challenged and trouble operating the school.

It requires a second or even a third look at Locke High School to discern the changes this fall, one year after it was taken over by charter operator Green Dot Public Schools.

...

The charter operator takes 6% of the student funding for central office expenses.

...

And because Locke's truancy rates are about 10 percentage points lower than they were under L.A. Unified, the school gets more per-pupil funding, which is tied to average daily attendance. The school's history is one in which the population of each class fell off sharply each year because of dropouts and community transiency, but already Green Dot is retaining more students.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

No I really don't think it's that deep. It's about needing to "kick ass" and protect America from the rampaging hordes outside of our borders.

I think a more likely reason is because they are directly benefiting from those dollars. When those budgets are spent on numerous contractors in conservative districts, its like a subsidy.>> ^dag:
I'm not against taxes- but I would like better appropriation of those taxes. The Defense budget as a percentage of GDP is absolutely obscene.
Why aren't the wingnuts crowing about that government spending program? Answer: because they're racist xenophobes worried that the A-rabs will come and steal their women.
Graaawwrrr! I'm feelin' flamey tonight!
