If he '360'd then surely he'd spun all the way around and was right back where he started?

Haha yeah, I think you mean he 180'd

he would have written 180 if he meant it

JediKirby's story didnt really shock me much, my first thought was along the lines of 'Welcome to the real world'. And it seemed to apply equally to both the prospective student and JediKirby. Even JediKirby's initial response sounds like tour guide training verbatim. They anticipate these types of questions.

(JediKirby - If your training didnt prepare you for that scenario, and that is all your own on the fly-response, they definately got the right man for the job!)

The last thought that occured to me was about the questions:

"What kind of people are here?.. Well, not to be racist, but are there like, black people here?" "Is it a nice neighborhood, and who lives there? Is it like a ghetto?"

Would it have been less shocking if these questions where asked by a prospective black student?

I'm a bit racist, or at least i seem to be, because i REFUSE to be politically correct like all the other morons who cant think for themselves.

ie. I now live in Southampton. Southampton has a LOT of violent crime. Southampton has a LOT more black people than my last 2 towns. Connection? Not quite, its just that poorer areas such as council estates are run down and many more people will turn to crime to better their situation/drugs. A higher percentage of blacks live in the poorer areas than the more peaceful middle class areas.... therefore, some people percieve blacks and other minorities as causing crime, which is an unfair generalisation.*

I'm losing you guys here, just nod your heads and agree...

* Apart from Romanians, they're all criminals and skanks, bloody Romanians!

BackPEDAL

That's the third time I've seen that word in the last day and it's starting to bug me.

And no, that isn't how yanks spell it.

Hahaha wrong kind of pedal

I thought it looked odd

Backpedal.

Perhaps he's selling his backwards ideas.

I'm late to this thread BUT IT MEANS HE'S MAKING FUN OF YOU.

you really never saw a black guy until college?

Kansas is a very, very white state, with the exception of the Kansas City metro area, and, even then, it's not as racially diverse as other urban areas of the country.

There's a reason why Fred Phelps was able to make such a strong base in Kansas.

Lawrence = island of sanity in Kansas.

He said it was a person he knew, not him.

Uh... no. People can mean one thing and mistakenly say another.
It's a pretty basic concept really.

?

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought of that.
