Recent Supreme Court Decision

The most recent 5-4 decision from the Supreme Court striking down so-called voluntary desegregation plans for public schools is a welcome one. Of course, the predictable left bemoans the end of Brown as well as a return to racist schools in America. They never get it. Racism is ok as long as whites are targeted. They have no evidence that forced percentage-building of so-called diversity programs work. What works are better schools, ones with demanding and qualified teachers and parents who actually care about their children's schoolwork. I have seen how inner-city schools, ones whose populations are completely minority, fail. It has nothing to do with not having white students present but everything to do with having low standards and a total lack of concern for education from the community. Let's bring discipline back and we will have better schools.
