I'm surprised that I watched the whole thing.

I can't believe I made it through 13 minutes of that. I kept thinking that if I watched a little while longer the purpose would become clear. It didn't. I quit. But don't blame me. I'm a victim.

I wish I were eloquent like Russ so I could articulate my opinion of the Solon article in such a way that would elevate the discourse and foster greater understanding. As I am not all I can say is that I think it was mostly horseshit.

Of course it is, but that doesn't mean this all isn't great fun.
What could possibly be more joyful than watching a bunch of Social Justice Warriors burn down the most liberal institution in the state of Missouri? Well, there's always SLU. Maybe MU is only #2? Whatever. It's certainly in the top ten.
The icing on the cake is the way this didn't really take off until the football team threatened a boycott.
There is so much irony here it's impossible to take it all in.
God bless Mizzou!

A few more of these over the next year and you will be saying President The Donald.  This PC stuff is eating itself. This had gotten so crazy that even the far far far left liberals I know think it's crazy. Did you read the news about calling the cops if you feel that someone made a non PC remark. |

In colleges here and in many other countries it is customary for college authorities to address matters of dormitories being daubed with swastika faeces and the hurling of racist abuse and such like at minority students on campuses quite strongly. It is not regarded as mollycoddling the targets of such abuse to do so.

Because some perv likes to draw in his shit and because someone might have said something racist? Really? Take a walk after dark on any downtown street in America if you want to get a first hand look at a real racial problem. I bet if our evenhanded national media would shine its righteous light on black crime and violence.... Well never mind. Those topics are off limits. I'm done.

A faeces swastika and an unadressed problem of racial intimidation on Bristol campuses would be a pretty big thing here. Evening news. That it is not perceived as such a significant thing in other places is unfortunate. That you are switching away from a worrying description of racist behaviour to a description of black people as criminals is disappointing.
Edit - changed typo 'undressed' to 'unadressed'.

The Mizzou protesters also think an innocent man was killed by racist cops in Ferguson.
Unfortunately for them, in the wider world, things like "evidence" and "due process" still matter.
The colleges are getting what they deserve. They've been teaching cultural relativism for a few generations now, all the while thinking that the systemic, rational protections THEIR culture afforded them would continue to be operative.
Suckers.
Heh. No sympathy here. Burn, baby, burn!

How would you address shit on a stall and unsubstantiated racial epithets? Specifically? They make news here also. That was my point that you switched away from. I know of numerous instances in my local area where white people got the swatikas kicked out of them in shopping center parking lots, gas stations, Waffle House, etc. That's just my state- what about the rest of the country? Is it just here? I think not. You are outraged about shit on a stall- I'm more worried about where I show my white face after dark. If that disappoints you, I'm really sorry but that's just the way it is. |

What does "white people got the swastikas kicked out of them" mean? I honestly do not understand.
Edit - Do you mean 'shit' and not ' swastikas'?
Edit - I think you are describing racial conflict and violence, black people attacking other races being the norm. That's how it sounds. Am I right? |

Among the more delicious aspects to all this is the fact that there isn't a single shred of actual, public evidence that the "poop swastika" ever happened. No matter. Evidence? Process? Spare me your Eurocentric, 18th Century traditions. We demand ACTION!! Did the Mizzou swastika incident actually happen? Who knows. If it did occur, why? What was the motive? Was it an actual racial attack? Was it some guy drunk off his ass screwing around without any conscious knowledge of what he was doing? Was it some 'false flag' tactic by SJW agitators frustrated that they couldn't find any actual racism to complain about? Or was it any one of a thousand other possibilities? Or is the whole thing a complete fabrication? Answers to those questions require patience and investigation. SJW's have no tolerance for either. Lets not kid ourselves. There are people in society today who crave being able to call themselves victims. If you're a member of a certified "oppressed" group and can point the finger of accusation at someone white, powerful, rich, etc, you are golden. Probably get yourself an invitation to the White House. If you have to burn down your university, the First Amendment and the entirety of The Enlightenment in the process, no matter. All good stuff. Universities long ago abandoned any pretense regarding the pursuit of truth. Watching the snake eat it's own tail is just too delightful for words. |

I'm very pleased to be informed that, despite reports from black people to the contrary, racism no longer exists and is not worth bothering about in Missouri seats of learning.
