One can only hope that a wealthy minority buys the facility for chump change at the auction and puts a "No Whiteys" sign out front.

Um, it's a community pool. Don't affluent white people own their own pools, ya know, the kind that aren't above ground and kill lawns.

How is a private pool a community pool?

So, to you, an accusation is as good as a guilty verdict?

Sorry, there's no place for schadenfreude here. The kids still don't have any place to swim.

//Cutting off your nose to spite your face and all that...

Ha, for the last decade they could never be "in the black".

Dam I was hoping there would be finally someplace I could go for a public pool that would finally be clean.

I saw this movie. Turns out it was only a Baby Ruth...

You dont know what you're talking about. I encountered this group of kids at the Philly Zoo about a week before this story broke. They were loud, rude agressive thoughtless socially inept assholes to the last kid.

Call em racists all you want, but that club would have been dooming itself anyway by allowing that antisocial riff-raff in. I'm telling ya, I seem em with my own damn eyes!

???? What's with all the vitriol, dude? Relax. Don't worry, no one will be telling you anytime soon that you have to vacate the premises of a pool.

the_be_sharps: One can only hope that a wealthy minority buys the facility for chump change at the auction and puts a "No Whiteys" sign out front.

That won't solve the problem. An eye for an eye makes everyone blind.

Another race card played and unfairly harming another victim. There was no racial prejudice involved, they were just trying to protect the kids. Everyone knows black people can't swim, so what decent person would throw one in a pool? In fact, you people are the racists for suggesting that they're racist.

the_be_sharps: One can only hope that a wealthy minority buys the facility for chump change at the auction and puts a "No Whiteys" sign out front.

As amusing as that would be, it would only give ammo to the "WAAAAAHHH white people is bein' derskimmanated against" crowd.

Trust me, you don't want those guys to have more ammo.

It's true, my girlfriend is black and if it weren't for her boobies she'd drown everytime we went to the pool (well, I guess it'd only be one time). I've never known a black person that could swim well. In fact, most black people I know avoid water that's deeper than 4 ft. period.

/anecdotal evidence is anecdotal

Shaq can swim.

Code brown?

This is legal maneuvering. The entity that owns the pool is going bankrupt to get out of paying a lawsuit... the new entity that will own the pool will be the exact same people. You think an elitist, white country club isn't full of lawyers?

I don't know Shaq, but now that I think of it I did know Isaac Hayes and he could swim; he even had a pool at his house and we hung out at the beach in St. Lucia together...so I guess even my anecdotal evidence is not totally accurate, my bad.

/I know, cool story bro

In Illinois you are required to have a swimming class every year in high school. There are exceptions if your school does not have a pool nearby. Unfortunately, I went to a "fancy" public school that had two pools. Everyone knew not to take swimming late in the day because the pools were coated with a layer of afro sheen. It was disgusting.

Meh, it is one thing to have a bunch of obnoxious dipshiat kids farking around in the pool, it is a whole nother thing when none of them can swim.

The lifeguards probably threatened to quit.

I did the army swim test with a black guy. He sunk straight to the bottom of the pool and had to be rescued. He had about 3% body fat though, so I always thought that was the cause. I guess it was on account of his jungle heritage. I nearly drowned too, but that was because I suck at swimming in clothes.

couldn't have happened to a more deserving group. everybody swims, or NOBODY swims. Wake up, America. colored's are people too.

This thread is amusing.

On one hand, you have people who never had fun as kids. You can tell who they are because of the comments they leave. Like Madbassist. Anti-social riff-raff? Loud, obnoxious kids? Anytime you have a large group of kids, regardless of race, they will become loud and obnoxious. That's the best part of being a kid!

Now is the part where people claim "Well, I went to summer camp and we respected our elders/I was never that bad!" Well, it sucks to be you, since you really didn't have a childhood. The best part of being a kid is being loud and obnoxious. The worst thing that can happen is you get a small punishment.

Madbassist1:

Having visited literally thousands of schools throughout the US while teaching science programs, I suspect that there was as much an element of 'inner-city out of control kids' as their race.

A lot of inner-city teachers just kind of show up. The kids, white, black, Asian or Hispanic, are just herded in noisy groups from one point to another. I've had groups of kids enter a gymnasium set up for a presentation and immediately, a group of kids (usually three or four boys) start breaking stuff. The teacher did absolutely nothing to rein in that behavior.

So, to you, an accusation is as good as a guilty verdict?

Its fark, where politically correct morons abound, all you have to do is have an accusation that goes against their accepted norms and a little black kid holding up a sign saying "No justice, No peace" and they attack like rabid wolverines, truth be damned.

Where is the racist kid pic?

And most likely what happened was that they rented the pool because they wanted the money, a few of the regular spoiled rich biatches complained that little johnny had to be around these hooligans so they ended up asking them to leave. Its amazing to watch some of these upper class twats, their kid is always innocent but your kid is out of control and you should just take him home!

I hate rich people, so out of touch.

For the record. I can't swim and I'm afraid of water. Watching black people swim in the Olympics brings a tear of pride to my eye.

I grew up in a rural area of the Northeast. My school was one of very few that had a pool. Every student K-12 in the district has to swim for a few weeks of the year during gym class. I still graduated with kids who couldn't swim because they would get doctors notes or have some kind of excuse to not go in the water. They were generally the same kids who walked instead of running the mile and hung out in the outfield kicking rocks when we played baseball.

So if you want to get rid of her, I guess you know what to do, right?

course, you'd get caught immediately, because everyone KNOWS that blacks never go swimming voluntarily.
