I grew up in a place where high school teams of knock-kneed white boys played basketball against teams full of candidates for Division I NCAA scholarships. The black kids destroyed the white kids - humiliated them, half the time in EXTREMELY unfriendly gyms. I vividly recall anti-white racial epithets raining down from the stands, extreme aggression on the court, and generally poor sportsmanship on the part of the black kids.
And it was NEVER in the papers. Never on TV. No liberals wrung their hands. No one, not even coaches or teachers, tried to tone it down. It was just how it was: the honkies took their beating and went home.
Then, of course, the honkies went to college and on to rewarding lives and careers, while the players and students from the other schools went on to things like murder, prison, drugs, and, for something like five of them, meaningful professional basketball careers.
Life has its little compensations.
