Dirty-minded, u must be kidding when u tried to generalise comparasion of Lincoln school and any high school of US? It depends on what US school u r talking abt. If it's the one that my friend here went, hell 'no'. He said that only 5 out of 70 students in his class could make to college and 3 of them dropped out already. According to him, the irony is that it was top 10 high schools of that particular county. Have you ever learned about all kinds of problems of sex, drugs n' all other assaults at schools? Well again, we should not generalise. My point was that it's good to learn both good and bad parts of here. If you followed that thread thoroughly, I was trying to raise voice against making any generalization, whether against southern states or black people.
