Three students were taken to area hospitals with injuries from the altercation.
A fight broke out between Louisiana evacuees and Houston students at a southeast Houston high school Tuesday morning.
When it was over, three Jones High School students were in the hospital and five were in police custody.
The scene got even uglier when parents arrived.
A loud verbal confrontation broke out between mothers of some of the students involved in the first fight.
"They jumped on my nephew inside this school, busted him in the head. They're sending him to the hospital," yelled one woman.

Police separated the group of women and threatened to arrest them if they didn't calm down.
"Let us work it out, OK?" one HPD officer told the angry parents.

A verbal confrontation broke out between the students' mothers who showed up at the school.
One mother of a student who was arrested ended up in handcuffs herself.
The first fight started around 9 a.m. when a bus rolled up carrying Katrina evacuees enrolled at the school.
According to police, someone threw a can at one of the evacuees and that set off a fight involving several students.
Ambulances were called to the scene to take the injured to Ben Taub Hospital. It's not clear whether they were evacuees or Houston students.
Of the five arrested, Two are from Louisiana and three are Houston students.

Three Houston students and two from Louisiana were arrested.
Witnesses at the scene say today's incident was retaliation for another altercation on Friday.
About 200 evacuees are attending Jones High School in the 7400 block of St. Lo. That's the largest number of evacuee students in any Houston school.
HISD officials say a total of 3,000 Louisiana students are attending their schools.

Sounds kind of like the schools I went to.
[QUOTE]Jones High School in Houston, Texas is 55% Black, 44% Hispanic, and 1% White and Asian. 78% of the entire student body is on free lunch. According to goodschools.com, standardized test scores are way below average.[/QUOTE]

Using leftist logic, this would mean that The Man is trying to keep the student population down by feeding them free lunches.

STEATOPYGIA (Gr. crr~ap, fat, iru-yij rump), an unusual accumulation of fat in and around the buttocks. The deposit of fat is not confined to the gluteal regions, but extends to the outside and front of the thighs, forming a thick layer reaching sometimes to the knee. This curious development constitutes a racial characteristic of the Bushmen (q.v.). It is specially a feature of the women, but it occurs in a less degree in the males. It is also common among the Hottentots, and has been noted among the pygmies of Central Africa. In. women it is regarded among them as a beauty: it begins in infancy and is fully developed on the first pregnancy. It is often accompanied by the peculiar formation known as the Hottentot-apron, hypertrophy of the nymphae (Tablier). No satisfactory explanation of these malformations has been offered. Steatopygia would seem to have been a characteristic of a race which once extended from the Gulf of Aden to the Cape of Good Hope, of which stock Bushmen and pygmies are remnants. The discovery in the caves of the souih of France of figures in ivory presenting a remarkable development of the thighs, and even the peculiar prolongation of the nymphae, has been used to support the theory that a steatopygous race once existed in Europe. What seems certain is that steatopygia in both sexes was fairly widespread among the early races of man. While the Bushmen and Hottentots afford the most noticeable examples of its development, it is by no means rare in other parts of Africa, and occurs even more frequently among Bastaards of the male sex than among Hottentot women.

It's kind of hard to follow that video. But, I think the New Orleans refugees are trying to say "We want to thank this community for taking us in and supporting us in our time of need." The locals were replying, "You're most welcome. Whatever we can do for you."

All I can say is thank God I'm old enough to have attended public school when it was at least 80% white.
I absolutely [I]loathed [/I] high school....but compared to what that experience would be like today, given the numbers up there, I'm sure it would seem like a month in the country.
