Yeah, "Usual ignoring of all facts by left wing media" -- who was ignoring all the facts?

Did you bother looking at the demographics of the area?...In which less than 1% of population is African American...

Where is your link and detailed facts about " 1 in 3 being minoriity"?...What are the demographics...

As far as the "few" people yelling racists remarks...A few does not make a majoriity..There are a few loudmouths from every group..Aren't there?

Of course the left wingnut media would focus on this...

Look at the complete facts...

^ The school is "...Miller Valley, a K-5 school with 380 students and the highest ethnic mix of any school in Prescott."

This is not a mural of the town. It is a mural of the school.

The mural is a SCHOOL mural. The mural should represent the school more than the area. Using your logic, the mural should be full of senior citizens since the largest demographics of the area is people age 65 +. Genius, an elementary school mural full of old geezers, LMFAO.

No, just didnt phrase it right. I meant that your thread title was ironic since it appears that it's you who are ignoring all facts.

Except the demographic breakdown of the city of Prescott AZ

The right and left have both been guilty of this, so I'll state it again. This applies to EVERYONE, liberal and conservative. Politics don't belong in our public schools.

So you see a mural with a black person even though there's no black person in the school? Just let it go and move on lol. No need to make a big deal about it.

Actually the school has "the highest ethnic mix of any school in Prescott," and a city councilman complained that a black child was depicted on not one but two walls of the school.
