Racism exists , definatly. A few days ago these same students told al the white people who where there to support them to leave because they only wanted black people there, for their "Healing".

Why are they trapped in their rooms? Man talk about being incredibly dramatic. Nobody actually honestly thinks these college students are oppressed to the point of being scared to leave their own rooms. This is called being taught at an early age and through the MSM and white guilt that they're victims
I'm not saying racism doesn't exist (because i always have to say that) but they're exaggerating the situation

The Mizzou protesters are angry at the media coverage shifting from their fabric ated racial inequality pity-party to the people who were killed in Paris in the most recent terrorist attacks. I wasn't going to say anything, but this is absolutely outlandish. How DARE those dead French people steal the spotlight from their perceived racial disparity? How dare the media focus on more important matters of world affairs rather than spoiled selfish students?
This is just pathetic on every level.

This is the face of higher learning in this country? Sure. I understand if you're not on the support Paris bandwagon. I get it if you think that this is a western created problem. I understand the concerns for refugees, racism, and the European culture. The opinions of everything involved in the Middle East that makes it a topic that splits people's opinions. But these students protesting that their protest isn't getting spotlight media coverage after hearing about their crying over swastika poop for days and days non-stop. This is the epitome of arrogance, selfishness, and sociopathic entitlement. I am tired of being 'quiet' about it because it might 'offend' someone.
I am chaste, because I give zero f###s if they are offended anymore.
This social justice rampage is stupid. They need to grow up.
(EDIT: No. I do not want them silenced or censored. I am GLAD they are exposing their ignorant vitriol through every arrogant tweet they post. Let them scream it from the roofs of their colleges.)

And we're positive this tweet is from a bonafide Mizzou protestor and not just someone who made an account and did this to make them look as bad as possible?
Besides, it's just 1 tweet.
Even if true that leaves just one very selfish person.
Even that is nothing unusual among the human species.

I admit to knowing little about the Missouri "incident" but I have read that the President of the Student Body has apologised for spreading false rumours about members of the KKK being on campus. So it appears it is fabricated in any event which I think kinda makes their ridiculously childish tweets irrelevant

Here's the item that I read
Missouri President Apologises
On a side note can someone tell me why they are referred to as African-Americans still? Surely in this illuminated 21st century they are simply American? Why is it that people lately are feeling the need to differentiate themselves and opt for self-segrregation?
