It's sad that the people insulting each other in the comments section don't know the difference between "your" and "you're". It kind of casts doubt on any of their (not "there", or "they're", by the way) claims of being well educated.

@izaccy Bigot my ass... Is it true or is it not true? And of its true (and it is) then all claims of bigotry can be thrown out the window.

I probably actually make 3 times as much as you, but this isn't a pissing contest

[izaccy]

@fargonbastedge your an idiot and a bigot, lets see how far ur racist views will take you.

[subrisi4]

@fargonbastedge I don't normally reduce myself to make insults, but you sound like an ignorant hick. I have worked with children of many races and ages, and I can tell you that the moment you put high expectations on any child is the moment that they rise to meet and even exceed those expectations. The FACTS are that inner-city kids from low income homes have far fewer opportunities to succeed, not only because of a backwards school system, but because of idiotic, narrow-minded punks like you.

[fargonbastedge]

@izaccy "Facts" my ass. I called you out on your bull shit claim to be majoring in "physics" like your retarded ass falsely said. Now what are you going to about it?

[izaccy]

@fargonbastedge Lol didnt realize I was talking to a racist here,

Niels Bohr Insitute Physics, under subject: Astronomy.

RoleModels: Neil Degrasse Tyson, Brian Greene, and Leonard Susskind.

religiously watch programs with prof. Brian Cox wonders of the universe.

dont attack my personality because I dont fit in your views.

Bullshitting ?. because I told you the facts about background and proper education is more vital then skin color ?

sorry to burst your bubble.

[fargonbastedge]

@izaccy Your not majoring in "physics " you stupid ass minority. Your only saying that to make yourself sound smarter without proving any points. If you would have said "biology" then you would have had a better chance at bull shitting, but "physics" lol not related. Nice try....

[izaccy]

@fargonbastedge Well thats a sad way of looking at things, im a biracial guy, majoring in physics at the NBI, once limitations in education are not determined by how much melanin you got in your skin, a decrease in melanin does not mean increase in education. thats absurd. urban youth have high level of school dropout and teen pregnancy,almost a prisoner of themselves and their background. NOT THEIR SKIN

I would probably have spoken ghetto language, if i still lived in the US.

[fargonbastedge]

@izaccy Save me your equality BS. My original point was that no matter how much you give financially wise to "urban youth" it will never approve look at south centrial LA, Africa, Detroit and hati and every where else black people....same story... its the race... sry not white peoples fault...

[izaccy]

@fargonbastedge I see you are really trying to make Bill Gates fit in your racist views,

The truth of the matter is that, Gates is a philanthropist, an atheist who pledged to give 90% of his money away to charity, when he dies, and is friends with Warren Buffet,

not in a million years would I think You and Bill would agree that Education should be private and exclusive as you dream of.

Basic education should be taught, and raise the scientific literacy in the US:
