No thanks.
Hillhouse, btw, *was* one of the top academic high schools in
Connecticut in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Now, it has suffered the
fate of many urban high schools, sadly. In that same period, your
schools probably were segregated, hey, redneck? Hillhouse was not; the
president of my senior class was black. In the early 1960's...when the
boys in your state and Florida were still into lynching blacks.

Well at least you spelled my name right this time.
Since you brought race into the discussion. From 1960 to 2008, how many
senior class presidents were not black. And since when is race relevant
to acedemic achievement? Your racist underpinnings are showing.


Losing to a black man for class president may have triggered his
fascination with the KKK. He mentions them all the time, and even
posted a family picture complete with pointy hats. Just saying...



I don't know what Krause's affiliation with the KKK is. It is probably
not a good idea to ask him.

the president of my senior class was black.


So *you* weren't the class president? Do tell.

Did he go on to become an Astronaut and head of NASA? Of course not,
that was someone from "rednecksville", SC. Uh huh.

Things have changed a lot since you were in school in the '40s. Of
course, that does help explain why you're so "set in your ways" and
forgetful. It's typical of the elderly, unfortunately.



As I stated, your local guy succeeded because he got out of rednecksville.

The president of my senior high school class was doing very well when we
caught up at a reunion.

I was in public school in the 1950's and 1960's, but I agree that
"things have changed a lot" since then, and, as a generality, I believe
today's high schoolers are far less literate than their predecessors.
Too much internet, too many video games, not enough reading, writing,
math, and science.

Of course, you righties aren't big fans of science. Interferes with your
idiotic religious beliefs.

Harry is the most bigoted person here. What is amazing is that he's so
stupid that he doesn't realize that EVERYONE here makes fun of him,
and his lies, and his bigotry except his lover, Don that is.

And of course, that's an obvious lie.

The most telling thing in this whole exchange is that the guy from the
backward southern state posted a positive new story about a black man
from his local area who has done very well in his life.

Then you, they guy who attended such a forward thinking liberal
school, steps into the thread and turns it into an ugly, racist, and
bigoted direction.

That's so telling, in so many ways.

How do you know he wouldn't have been just as successful had he stayed
in Columbia? And do you know that many progressive southern cities
have a much higher rate of college grads than in your area? Now, I
mean REAL grads, not made up Yale ones.

The president of my senior high school class was doing very well when we
caught up at a reunion.


How about the make believe president of the make believe student body
of your make believe Yale education?

I was in public school in the 1950's and 1960's, but I agree that

Well, you have to remember, you're talking to a guy that is too damned

Your bigotry falls apart when you realize that he comes back to the
area quite often, calling it home. As a local "hero" he's in the news
and on the local scene pretty often.

You southern white repubs like to conceal your liking for the Southern
Strategy by tossing up that sort of stuff. I recall a number of your
posts that poked fun at blacks because of their race.

You might be fooling your fellow righties here, but you aren't fooling me.

The KKK have a very active and notorious history (going back to 1866) in
Maryland, including lynchings, cross burning and firebombing.

here is a photo of the KKK in Maryland taken in 1982.

http://www.upi.com/News_Photos/Archi...ux_Klan/381/5/

The KKK have had well published sally's in 2004 and 2006 in Maryland. I
have not heard of any KKK rally's in SC.

This is what a girl who lives in Baltimore Maryland had to say about
Maryland:

"Please! There are places (that you probably never driven through) that
are pure "KKK like" country in Maryland. if you are not white you SHOULD
NOT get out of the car. It may be offensive to to say "Redneck" or
"hick", but should we refer to them as "possible white supremacists"? It
does exist, it has been experienced by myself and people I know... They
are areas of Maryland that most would not have to drive through unless
you know somebody or you (GULP!) got lost. It may be offensive, but its'
more offensive when you have to drive through these areas fearing for
your life!!! I wasn;t trying to be offensive, I don't know any other way
to put it honestly."
