Re: “School of the Arts tweet exposes Charleston County Schools' hypocrisy”
That many blacks hate white and multiracial people is not difficult to understand. The cultural bias against blacks is palpable and the program of biological and psychological gentrification only makes them more desperate to avoid becoming victims of the ethnic cleansing objectives of the elite upper class. They are still put down daily due to the color of their skin. One initiative that might help at a grass roots level is if white people would find some way to compliment a minority every day for a job well done; a service rendered; or even on the way they look. And it wouldn't hurt to give them a hug and apologize for the way their ancestors were treated and for the complete disruption of their family and traditions during slavery. Schools need to help blacks appreciate the contributions their people made to society; the wealth they help generate; and the buildings they helped build. And yes it would be nice to offer them land and a new start in Alaska or some other state where they are accepted and treated like human beings should be. Even offer to relocate them back to their country of origin. Blacks in the USA are not even allowed to have feelings. You never hear of them being convicted of a hate crime. But many have ample reason to hate. Integration may have been the worst thing that could have happen to Afro-Americans from a cultural standpoint. Perhaps they would be better off with their own schools, just as they are with their own churches. In the meantime, white students in predominantly black schools are just going to have to bite the bullet because there is a dual standard when it comes to what passes for racism. Better get a small digital recorder if you want to begin to prove anything that would promote affirmative action to obviate this social disease.

Re: “School of the Arts tweet exposes Charleston County Schools' hypocrisy”
So, the school system paid a hefty court fine for ignoring racial threats, and now you're lambasting them for going after racial threats... not only that but ones with a written, physical evidence record? Fascinating. Beyond that, though, if there's merit to the pending claims, as there certainly was in the Kandrac case, I hope that the penalties are severe enough to root out the problems.
Re: “Is Anne Frank's Diary pornography?”
No, it isn't pornography. Disturbing that some few should think so.
Re: “Beer yoga, an Avondale house show, and coffee shopping”
The murals at Holy City Brewing are the work of Sean Williams, a local artist and all-around great dude. Check out his other murals in Avondale (behind Avondale Wine & Cheese) and Park Circle (EVO)

Another bar with a DJ. So original. Does anyone know when Coyote Ugly or Bar Louie is going to come to town and open shop on Upper King?

"A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not."
No shit. That's how it works.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not. Oh, that goes for politicians too. Guess I should have lied more. If I had I might be President. At least a Senator. Why do these idiots expect citizens to obey the law when they don't?
Re: “The Oyster Room”
Well I was born & raised on Folly and this place is just as bad as all of the other places "he" has opened. Chill n Grill = should have stopped their. Took over the old Sea Shell, turned it into Snap & Crack = lame no value. Next takes over 11 center st. as Folly Shrimp Co. = Fail. Week attempt but again you would have to know the proprietor to understand his short comings & lack of business sense. All in all, Folly was doing just fine before his daddy was writing checks. BTW were are all the other reviews that seemed to be deleted giving a proper review of this place & not some "I live on FB & work in industry & love food....blah blah blah..."

I'm gonna go ahead and not make it to this gig.
Re: “Modern Man explores the outer limits of noise rock”
Interesting until the Morrissey on quaaludes vocals kicked in.
Also, that's not "noise". Not even close.

Go ahead. Try this.

Boy, I bet if those guys were any good someone might give enough of a shit to put them into NME's list of snarkiest popstar quotes.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
The amount of wasted dollars in the aerospace industry is incredible. Boeing does not need these rebates. They could easily afford to continue their productions without these government subsidies and if they cannot, the free market has judged them. Just another liberal example of do as I say, not as I do.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
@nofaith - The purpose of the tax breaks is to bring those jobs to SC. It is free market working by providing the tax breaks! SC is giving the film/TV industry a reason to bring its business here & not another state.
I would rather give a business a tax break to bring more jobs to SC rather than having higher unemployment.
Well done SC Legislature!

Re: “The problem with for-profit hospitals”
The profit motive also provides motivation for better quality in a competitive environment. Government subsidized Non-profit hospitals and government run hospitals sometimes function at a bare minimum level of quality because they can.
If hospitals and doctors who seek to make money by providing care bother you, make a mental note to avoid them in the future. If enough people did that they might lower their fees or just go out of business.
