This is easy. You said.

"Damnit, why wont crap like this just die? At the risk of being tarred and feathed my self, I gotta ask, what the hell do white folks have against us other folk just going about our lives?"

Youre blaming whites specifically for what as it turns out is a bad idea multi-ethnic support.

... and what makes your conversation with Doc hilarious to me is that Ernie Chambers (one of the leading proponents) is in fact Black (or so it appears to me).

Reading Ernies justification for creating the separate school districts in Omaha is to let the majority black part of Omaha have more control over their schools, and the majority Hispanic part of Omaha to have better control over their schools. Seems that when the entire city of Omaha is one school district that the majority Whites run the show, and the minorities feel left out.

So now we need to move to the issue of affordable housing equity, or the lack of it in the middle class, upscale or more affluent neighborhoods herding low income people into certain areas of the city or state. Poverty and poor districts with low income opportunity and under-funded schools in those areas leads to crime, gangs, drop outs, drugs, and the cycle perpetuates itself.

Yes, people need to take responsibility for their own crap, but then again that is very easy for me to say as a highly educated white man who has never had to fight against racial stereotypes, and discrimination.
