an oddball scary kind of thing you would think would never happen

In 2008, Beverly Hills High School had 2,412 students: 26 percent White, 62
percent Persian, 6 percent Asian, 5 percent African-American, 1 percent
Latino. About one-third, or 800, of the students at the school are
Iranian.[6]

About 35 percent of Beverly's current student body was born outside the
United States, and 42 percent of its students speak a first language other
than English.

The above is from the wikipedia about Beverly Hills High School.
What used to be an all white school, is now 76% non white.
62% are Persian? Holy shit. Those damn Persians must be damned filthy rich.
I guess maybe it's better than 62% black or Latino. Oh I'm sorry I'm
supposed to say "afro-american". Screw it.

So where did all the rich hollywood types move to then? India?
Guess they watched all the old "Beverly Hillbillies" show to much eh?

 

Where did these Persians come from if only half are from Iran?

what kills me is the fact they say one third are Iranian after all the
other numbers. Since Iran was Persia, then where do the other third of
students really come from? As ancient Persia covered a huge territory.

 

Now, why didn't I think of asking that question? And after
noticing that I should have taken a skeptical look at the source
of that data and the total of ~133%.

Instead all I did was ask that question and take a
skeptical look at the source.
