When I was in seventh grade, I got into a fistfight with a black kid. He pummled me and all I did was try to shove him away in self-defense. Both of us were suspended from school for fighting, even though I was only defending myself. While I wasn't in school, my mom told me that I was only suspended because if a black kid and a white kid get in a fight and the black kid is suspended, then the white kid must be suspended too, or the NAACP would come down on the school like a hawk. It that true? If it is, how do you know so?

Slap your mom on the face and say "shut the fuck up".

Why? She's not a racist or anything like that. All I want to know is if it was true or not. I shouldn't have gotten suspended for self defense, right?

Perhaps they didn't believe a 7th grader telling them that it was self defense.

Funny thing is that he drew my blood and there wasn't a scratch on him. You'd think that if I had actually hurt him in some way that wasn't in self defense, there would be some mark on him or whatnot.

That probably is very true, Its just because the world is like that.
