It isn't Ohio, Sixate. It should be, but it is Georgia.
Sixate, I (an Ohioan) don't get it either. I can't figure out why there is a white establishment in the deep South that feels so secure in their racist convictions that they can publically do things like this. Think about how big of a stink they made about the Confederate flag at the statehouse. I couldn't imagine living, working, sending children to school in communities like these.
The only solace I take from this is that people in 45 or so other states shake their heads in disbelief when something like this surfaces.
Hate is such a powerful thing. Its a shame that these people, young people, seem to be unable or unwilling to break free of the stereotypical white person from the deep south.
Finally, it seems to me that school administrators are hiding behind this "juniors plan for the seniors" thing. Shouldn't someone here be saying "look, theres one prom for a united school and thats it."? Aren't these people, who are held to higher moral and ethical standards due to their positions, grossly embarassed? Or, and this is the scariest to me, are they being supported in the community?
