re:  "#116 (gull): The argument boils down to, 'black people aren't 
capable of making good decisions on their own,'"

Are they now making the decisions "on their own?"  Or are they being 
pushed, pulled, and steered by the colleges, their high schools, the 
civil rights establishment, their families, and who know who else to go 
to the prestigious school because they deserve it on account of the 
rotten treatment their people received, not because it is the best 
choice for that individual?  It is a lot of pressure to put on a 17 year 
old.
