    Disconnected, you're talking to me again. Someone else said what you're responding to. Hey, at least I'm IN the thread this time...that's an improvement.

    (and how many guys here are just jealous that she HAS hair to speak of? HMMM? No, don't send the bears after me, you know it's true... :p )

    I'm over 60 and have a fully head of hair, thank you very much. Don't believe me, take a look at my profile. The photo is just over a year old -- I'm actually about 20 lbs. lighter now. No lighter in the hair department, though. :laugh:

    As has already been stated, a moderator did not and cannot issue a command to "leave the girl alone". It was his opinion that the girl should be left alone.

    And, it WAS a racial situation due to the fact that the people who decided to suspend her were not sensitive to the difference in hair between black and white people.

    I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to demean your education by using a third grade tactic. Actually, I didn't even demean your education. You did. If you've got more intelligence than a third grader, then you did yourself a disservice by using third grade tactics.

    Normally, I'd just ignore your obvious personal attack, but since you asked, allow me an opportunity to brag. I scored a 141 GT score on the ASVAB, with an overall score of 99 on the ASVAB. In other words, I scored the highest possible score. I had letters from the Navy, marines, and air force trying to recruit me. I also have a bachelor's degree. I tested out my IQ at 148. Simply put, I chose the army. Incidentally, I did actually manage a McDonalds while working my way through college.

    So, again, while I'd normally just ignore a blatant personal attack like that and let the moderators dole out justice (which is actually their function), I decided to refute your attack. It tasted a little sweeter.

    Exactly. Interesting that individual rights types and freedom loving people get their shorts in a knot because someone wants to wear their hair a particular way.

    I do think they usually get the point across, ITL. :laugh:

    Or is it a matter of the student trying to push the the rules to the limt.

    Has anyone seen the student gude books?

    Again, I say, it's up to the school - and further it's time that students learn to adept.
    I know for a fact that Sapper has had to adapt quite a bit since he has joined the Army. (I'm just wondering when he is going to go to OCS?)

    Interesting that the race card has come up. Interesting that only 1/3 of the school is white, which is less than the state average.

    And since this is on the 5th page and gotten personal, I'm closing this thread.
