And remember this school is now intergrated. It is moving foward not backwards.
I heard about that. I thought and still think its a bad idea for an all gay school.

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Discrimination is discrimination, no matter which way it runs, and there are no "make-ups." Excluding a straight kid from a school is just as discriminatory as excluding a gay kid, and teaches insularity, separatism, and intolerance.

Aye. I heard the first white graduate from a historical black college just graduated this past year.

So, what kinds of prejudice/racism exists in the UK, NZ and wherever else we're all from here?

Well as a rule NZ hates nuclear... anything. The whole place has this clean green ideal that people are rather nuts about protecting.

While it is not rampant discrimination some still harbour a dislike of the native Maori culture, Ironically this has only started up in the last 10 year. Looking at polls almost no one had any problem with maori's or maori cultre, infact the majority was proud of it.

But recently under this horrible left wing government they have brought in a bunch of forced education programmes and given away huge amount of money and grants and land to them as settlements. This has created huge amounts of hate from all other groups. Ironically is asian NZers who have the biggest problem since they infact have a larger percent of the population with no benifits.

We also hate pollution, whalers, the French, SUV's, the Dutch, and Americans.

Generally anythgin that messes with our clean green image.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

From the song "National Brotherhood Week" by the great Tom Lehrer:

"The Catholics/hate the Protestants
And the Protestants/hate the Catholics
And the Moslems/hate the Hindus
And everybody hates the Jews."

I don't hate Jews. What does that make me?

BTW, do you have Walmarts and McDonalds over there, Teaos, or have you been blessed?

I hear the UK folk don't care for Chavs, which makes sense because I don't care for white trash/rednecks either.

I thought Chavs were the equivalent of hip-hop/rap douchebags here in the 'States. You know, the people with diamonds in their "grillz", and ten pounds of necklaces who can't speak english at all?
