Jesus Christ, how much more racist can Arizona get? It could only get more racist if they drew a rice-paddy hat, a giant fu Manchu over the state capital on maps, then followed it with buckteeth.
It’s not like Arizona was an awesome place to begin with. People weren’t clamoring to go there in droves, and the only people that are have been living in terrible conditions in another country. I think the goal of every legislator in Arizona is not to make Arizona more terrible. But they seem to be failing on every account. In addition to a law that basically encourages racial profiling, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer just signed a bill targeting the dismantling of a school district’s ethnic studies program. We should only study white people in school, you see. For white man’s hegemony over history is really lacking these days. According to State schools chief Tom Horne …
Public schools should not be encouraging students to resent a particular race. It’s just like the old South, and it’s long past time that we prohibited it.
Seriously? All I wanted to do in school was to NOT study white people. White people were everywhere, even in India. They’re not supposed to be in India. It’s just not right.
I think we’re being premature in comparisons to Nazi Germany. I think they were way more efficient. Also, they didn’t live in a place that completely sucked. Nazi Germany, despite being Nazi Germany, was still Germany. And I’d pay money for someone to ship me out of Arizona.

"All I wanted to do in school was to NOT study white people. White people were everywhere, even in India. They’re not supposed to be in India. It’s just not right." Isn't that the point, to not resent other races? And yet here you are. I agree with the above post, you should read up on stuff before blurting it out.
