More racial division. More claims of racism. More demands or else.
I'm not going to mince words or be politically correct here. The fact that mere accusations could end careers and ruin lives is ridiculous.
Here are the accusations:
1) A student went on a hunger strike after claiming he was called the n-word by a group of guys driving by in a truck. No evidence, just this dude making a claim and now getting his 15 minutes of fame.
2) A group of 11 blacks claim one white dude came up to them and called them the n-word. No evidence, other than these guys making the claim after the first accusation above.
3) A swastika was drawn in feces on the wall in a campus residence hall.
Because of these three alleged incidents, the President and Chancellor of Missouri have been forced to resign.
Sorry, but this is INSANE!
Have we forgotten that "hands up don't shoot" was a LIE perpetrated by blm? Have we forgotten the incident in North Carolina, where it was found a BLACK MAN was the perp behind posting racist and threatening posters on the doors of black churches? Have we already forgot about the Dean of North Texas, who wrote a LIE in the Dallas Morning News, claiming to be a victim of racial profiling by two white cops. I still haven't found an apology from this racist woman.
And there are more instances of blacks lying about alleged racism, yet because of 3 alleged incidents, reputations have been smeared and a University is in turmoil.
The first accusation, a guy gets called the n-word by a group in a pickup truck. Sorry if this offends any delicate people, but grow up. I've been called Honkie, Cracker, White Bread and other derogatory, racist terms. I didn't go on a hunger strike, nor did I demand people, who weren't even responsible for the alleged act, lose their livelihood and reputation. There's no evidence. You'd think maybe he could have a full or partial license plate number, or make, model and color of the truck. Nope. That doesn't matter. Facts don't matter. Evidence doesn't matter anymore. The allegations and claims are all which matter in today's society.
The second alleged claim is ridiculous. You expect me to believe a single white guy walked up to a group of 11 black men and called them the n-word? Get out of here, man. Sorry, but this is stupid. No way did one white guy walk up to a group of black men and do that. Again, no evidence. No name of the alleged single, white man. They even claimed a security guard was standing nearby and did nothing. Again, nothing. No name of the officer, no badge, nothing. Not even a cell phone video of the alleged incident. Think about that. None of these 11 guys took a video of this to post to world star hip hop? Not buying it.
The last alleged incident is as absurd: a swastika drawn in feces. Who's to say the hunger strike guy or one of the 11 from the previous accusation or a supporter didn't do it? No proof this was done by a white person. Again, just remember the previous accusations proven to be lies perpetrated by blacks.
Gary Pinkel, the coach of Mizzou's football team joined the protests and stated that a man's life was in jeopardy. Oh, please. The idiot stopped eating of his own free will. If he wants to be a moron and die from not eating, that's his decision.
Look for more of this junk in other universities and colleges around the nation. Since the accusations worked at UM, there will be more unfounded, outlandish accusations elsewhere. That's the plan. Chaos, protests, revolt, etc.
Welcome to the new America, obama's America.

Re: University of Missouri Protests
First Ferguson and now this! Man my state is in the news only for bad things.
As far as the one white guy walking up to 11 black guys, I thought the same thing.
NOBODY would do that EVEN if they were packing a gun!!! ABSURD!!!

Re: University of Missouri Protests
There MIGHT be more to this than what we can see. Maybe there is something amiss at this University.
The response is widespread.
Admittedly, from what I've read, I am not sure if this is an over-reaction or a good thing or whatever-- I just don't know.
It is good to see so many people concerned though.
I hope no one is crying wolf.

Re: University of Missouri Protests
Mizzou officials say they have learned
Missouri football coach Gary Pinkel acknowledged Friday he knew about a 2008 rape allegation against former running back Derrick Washington, but didn't discipline him because police didn't file charges.

In this climate, the response will always be wide spread
Do you guys remember back some years ago some woman lied about some "racist" thing done to her car and the campus going nuts? It was discovered she lied and she admitted it

Re: University of Missouri Protests
The school should do some preventive work as far as racism goes. Waiting till something happens is absurd.
Tell all students everyone is accepted and included.
Specifically what incidents won't be tolerated.
What will happen if you break one of these rules.
Everything should be fair to ALL students.
All this should be said at a scheduled event before the semester begins and it should be mandatory attendance for ALL students before they go on to their next semester.
With that said overreacting can hurt the school in the long run. Look at all the bad press the college has already got.

Im a little unsure of the whole thing.
Did these incidents really happen? where they reported to authorities?
What exactly could the president have done to prevent them? Call in the national guard?>

What I was trying to say was the time to deal with these issues is Before they happen. Let everyone know no acts of racism will be tolerated at this college. Doesn't sound like much, I know. But making the effort to have a fair campus for all students goes a long way with student moral.

Re: University of Missouri Protests
Here is the release of the MU report of the racial incidences at UM. Determine for yourself if this was ignored by the university.
http://thefederalist.com/2015/11/12/...-racial-slurs/
Interesting that there was also a complaint from a white student that was called a racist name by a drunk student, and it was dropped.
We're all screwed as long as standing up to the zealots can be successfully portrayed as being racist/facist/bigoted/prejudiced/etc. For real justice to have a chance, people need to be able to expose these zealots as idiots and make it stick. Otherwise we're all just stuck hoping sufficient appeasement will bring "peace in our time".
