I was thinking of two posts. The first one was my rendition of the changes in California culture over the last century and how these changes have helped to bring us to the current circumstance. There was nothing I stated that is not true or even exaggerated in that text. There was a lot of information that could actually be added to your gripe about proposition 13 but doesn't lay blame at whitey or the Republican party as you would have preferred. You actually could take my statement and show that it was white mainstream culture who are primarily represented by that text but I don't see the purpose of that. To me that would be a 'so what,' but at least it would be a considered response. Your response was as I described it. The second post was an anecdotal accounting of an experience I had. An experience I am not too proud of for several reasons; like, why would I have put my daughter in such a setting in the first place, it was a choice. Also, why had I allowed it to get so bad. I am an experienced educator who claims to be an authority on the subject. The story doesn't reflect well on that at all. In addition, I felt like I could punch a guy and never stop over what had happened to my innocent little girl ... thank God for little girls and my fear of prison or I might have. It was a hard personal story to share, I don't think I have told it to anyone else, at least I don't remember telling it before. It was hard because it left me vulnerable to some criticism I deserve and would have a hard time explaining. It contained some personal information I actually cut out before posting, you know hoe I feel about sharing personal information here. It did, however, represent another true and very valid perspective on the topic you were bringing up to discuss, so I felt it was worthwhile if we are truly going to consider the best interests of our society. Your reaction was one of a steel trap closed mind, and further you acted out with uncalled for character assassination.
