    Students walk out due to graffiti that called for death of black people

    Students walk out because of a graffiti that called for death of black people

    More than 1,000 students walked out in protest! But what do you know, it was written by a black student!

    Black student is revealed to have written N-word graffiti that called for death of black people and led to walk-out at Missouri high school

    A black student scrawled racist graffiti featuring the N-word that led to walk-outs at Parkway Central High School in Missouri, school officials said Tuesday

    'HOPE ALL BLACK PEOPLE DIE,' 'N*****' and other racist phrases were 'all over the stalls, on the ground [and] on the mirrors' in school bathrooms

    More than 1,000 students walked out the day after the September 23 incident, passing around a megaphone to share experiences of campus discrimination

    'I am sick and tired of people getting racially profiled,' said Catherine Arlena Lopez-Reyes into a bullhorn. 'I just want to say to the school, do better'

    'The student responsible is not white,' wrote Superintendent Keith Marty. 'This does not diminish the hurt it caused or impact it has had on our community'

    The culprit admitted to the act after the school launched an investigation - they now face 'severe disciplinary consequences' and a 'referral to law enforcement'

    Regardless of the new development, the superintendent wrote, 'more work is needed to ensure our school... [is] safe for each student regardless of their race'

    'I want to tell the thousands of students who participated [in the walk-outs]: I am proud of you for supporting one another and we heard you loud and clear'

    They didn't know who wrote it when they walked out did they?

    Blacks have been on the receiving end of some WELL ORGANIZED hate over the years so seems fair to cut them some slack on this one.

    But it just goes to show how one ahole can ruin a day.

        true,,, but it also seems lately (as in the past 10-20 yrs) a lot of it has been self inflicted,

        sad part is Ray,, the offended automatically jumped to assumptions,

        get mad , find out who did it, then go forward,

        but that don't make the news

          Nor did I criticize you. But those DM stories seem calibrated to push buttons, yeah?

              pushing those buttons gets clicks,

              clicks are revenue

                Could be fun to just start posting the subliminal subtext of those articles. Make it a game. Most accurate description using fewest words wins!

                For example this one: Black People Cry Wolf.

                    Somebody brought the story over here, instead of any of the countless "celebrity beach body" stories that the DM also runs. So whoever that was, seems fair to say that the DM pushed the right button with them.

                        Being of open mind, I have clicked on your DM links on occasion, which gave a taste at what else is there.

                        All I know is, these DM stories aren't posting themselves here.

                            Most of the ones you pick are geared to push buttons and emphasize problems in the country.

                            Here, some balance. Is she really the most beautiful girl in the world? Let the arguments begin!
