<p>FIrst of all, these sort of incidents can happen anywhere. Even at the most unlikely places. You only need a few bad ‘uns and you can have an ugly incident. There are places where the atmosphere is such that it happens more. I do not believe BC is such a place. Yes, there may well be racists there, nasty bullies there, those who stupidly use racial epithets, but the atmosphere is not conducive to that at all. So would I believe such a thing happened there? Yes. that’ s a regular thing. No. And furthermore, my personal opinion is that it’s truly a rare thing to happen there. I know MANY who went to BC, and not a one would support that this is anything but aberrant behavior hardly ever seen at BC. </p>
<p>My son went to a private high school that had very few bullying issues and no racism issues that I was aware of and my antennas are always up around my kids’s schools. But, there was one young man who was not so nice who said whatever came to his mind, and yes, he was a nasty piece of work. He did bully an Asian student making some remarks involving ethnicity That the bully was not caucasian, and a minority too, did not excuse him from such behavior, but the school did not put up with this sort of thing and took it seriously. You can’t do much about a loose cannon that goes off, but it was not tolerated by the other students either. But, yes, there are people like that who can get into places that do not have that sor of incidences and make the singular exeption. It does not make the whole place and everyone there of that ilk. </p>
