100. Someone's children are dealiing with those conditions
Are you seriously saying only the children of those not clever enough to harangue some poor bureaucrat into letting their kids into a magnet school should be in the schools not good enough for your kid?

How do you decide which kids should be in the bad schools? Skin color, ethnicity, income levels? Oh, that's right--IQ. The kids who really need the best schools shouldn't get them, because that space is reserved for your geniuses.

What do you say to the parents of kids who will be in the "snake pits"? Do you know them? Do you care about them and their children? If they were to ask you what they should do with their children who won't have the opportunity to go to a magnet school, what would you say to them? What, tough shit?

Really, what do you say to those without your good luck?
