<p>I do not think that there is an racial jealousy here (personally I was waiting to see if the subject of race would ever come up in this thread as no one has ever mentioned anything about her race in all of these pages). Since you raised the question, would you be defending her so vehemently or would still be as taken aback if she were of a different race?</p>

<p>Subject is middleclass caucasian kid . Blair Hornstein Upper middleclass cauccasian kid. Duke Lacrosse team Uppermiddle class caucasian kids. I hate to say it, but most of the bashing (especially on something that has been written about in the papers) that goes on either happens to middle class white kids or middle class african american kids ( the AA threads, where someoe cries they took my kids spot sort of thing).</p>
<p>There have been rants/bashing on threasds about AA, athletes, the Ivies (especially Harvard bashing) Katrina students at other schools, the wealthy and privileged and everything else in between. The one thing we can see here on CC- there is equal opportunity bashing ;)</p>
