Bizarro misses the point. Nobody is claiming that Asians don't do well in school, or that they aren't a higher than expected percentage of students at top colleges. The issue is that they are migrating to Fort Lee in such numbers that they are creating an Asian-dominated town and school system that results in Caucasians (particularly those with school age children) looking elsewhere when they are house hunting.If you call them racist because of that, you have to label the Asians as racist also because they are coming to Fort Lee because they want to be in a town with a lot of other Asians where they feel comfortable. If you are going to buy a house in the $500,000-$1,000,000 range, do you want your child to be a minority in the school?
