Slaves were offered freedom if they fought with the British. Who would you chose? The country who wanted to continue to enslave you or the country that offered you freedom? That is an easy choice. Why was Keys angry?

Why are you angry? You have been given the best chance on this Earth for upward mobility, but still gaze upon the provider with distain and resentment. Your self loathing is baffling and detrimental to your mental stability. Now move on so you can wallow in the next topic of hatred your puppet masters proclaim as the current but spiraling cesspool of despair.

Wow, unbelievable. I am not angry, you are. My ancestors were brutally beaten, raped, tourtoured and I had 2 uncle's that were lynched in the 60s, yet you would tell them that they (if they were still alive)should be grateful that they were kidnapped and that their families were torn apart. The British offered immediate freedom.I get it now, racist white people feel that we should be thankful that we were forced to leave our native land and come to this country ,so that we could be forced to offer free labor for centuries. You sound insane. I am going to pray for you.

I think everyone could use someone praying for them, even you.  Maybe it could help rid you of the hatred you have white people.

Your comprehension skills are incredibly pathetic. I did not say anything near your interpretation. As usual, you just read what you want to read.

I think that you are embarrassed,  because now you realize that you made an arse out of yourself. It is ok. When people are and, their true feelings are revealed. Haveyou called me the n word, yet?

Why was Keys angry?  He was writing about the enemy attacking his country.  When you're fighting a war, those you're fighting are the enemy.  Doesn't matter why, or who, you want to kill them.  During the revolutionary war, the British used German mercenaries.  We had no problem with Germany, but we did with their mercs.  They were the enemy, and no doubt the soldiers of the Continental Army wanted to, and did, kill many of them, and rejoiced.

I find it kind of funny when a kindergarten kid calls his teacher stupid. I don't think you have attained that level of sophistication yet. Now your teachers...they are the ones that should be embarrassed...which I'm sure they are if they have read any of your posts. I'm sure they've noticed how you throw out blanket stereotypes then run from any questions asked of you. They no doubt can see the anger you display in your posts, then are quizzical of how you dare call other's angry.  Then again, they could be a gleeful as a teenage schoolgirl knowing you are towing the asinine Liberal line.

No he hasn't and he wont.  But in 6 to 8 months, you will be claiming that he did.

Freedom?  Who were they oppressed by?  Must have been someone other than the USA- why isn't that ever mentioned?

      You’re the one talking about Elementary school kids.  What I’m saying is that there are kids who play Jr School ball in GCCISD and then transfer into BHISD/GPISD/LPISD/DPISD between 8th and 9th.  Doing so means no PAPF/eligibility questionnaire and they get to play Freshman/JV, work out with the team, etc. and look homegrown because they transferred before freshman year.  it’s a loophole.  All the big programs do it.  That’s why the UIL rules changes, to close up the 8th-to-9th transfer portal, and it isn’t even taking effect until Aug 1 2025 so you’ll see these transfers this summer. Also, as far as BHISD being closed instead of open, just look at the GCCISD transfer numbers I posted.  GCCISD loses twice as many kids to BHISD per year, the “closed” district, than they do to the open Districts in the area.  Anyone who lives here knows folks who’ve used MeeMaw’s address to get their kids in there.  It is what it is and if it wasn’t, UIL wouldn’t be changing those rules and sending one of their own to the DECs now would they?   Go ask Coach Abseck how many kids in his program are 8th Grade transfers.  We know that at North Shore that number is at least 20% because of the numbers they had to provide UIL during their recruiting investigation.  I’ll bet BHISD’s numbers are AT LEAST that.  Again, THEY ALL DO IT.

      According to Texas Tribune, Gccisd, Laporte and deer park are all rated B. Barbers Hill is an A. GC has a higher 4 year graduation rate than LP or DP. BH is far and away the best district on this side of town. GC has a much higher percentage economically disadvantaged at 71.7% with LP being next closest at 52%. Surprised that GC is performing so well considering. All of the players that would likely make a great football team are out by GCM and Sterling. If GCM had Lee's coach and dropped back down into 5A division 1, they would be able to compete very well against BH and LP. I don't know what their problem is with getting the athletes to gel into an actual team. Lee still beat them both this year and was sort of a down year by Lee's standards. Lot of injuries some kids moved out of district and they are paper thin as it is.
