University of Missouri police said Wednesday they have arrested a suspect accused of making online threats against black students and faculty, threats that added to racial tensions on campus that resulted in the departure of two senior university officials.

Police did not release a name but said the suspect was not on or near the university’s Columbia campus when the threat was made. The suspect is in custody. “We had additional officers on patrol last night and the campus remained safe,” Major Brian Weimer said in a statement. “We investigated a number of reports and tips and take every one of them seriously.”

If the perp is under 16 he’ll be white. If he’s older he’ll be black. (could be a “she” also)

There are weather storm coming fast across Missouri today. Mizzou canceled classes due to weather- BS, the admin needs a day off to look for its balls.

I found out from a source that last year there was a swastika incident in a dorm. Some drunk F***** painted one. He was charged with felony vandalism and then expelled. Funny how quickly this was resolve but the elusive poopskika prep is still at large.

Further note, ROTC did not wear uniforms yesterday because of the crazies on campus...

I am sooooo glad the the Big Ten did not invite Mizzou to join the league.

Yeah, the Big Ten has got problems but we don’t need this type of flaming garbage can in the conference.

“Further note, ROTC did not wear uniforms yesterday because of the crazies on campus... “

Great. Happy Veterans’ Day.

(Maybe they should have worn uniforms and then reported every offensive comment to the MUPD (as requested — “hateful speech”).

And then said they were near breakdowns due to the hostility, and that they did not feel safe on campus, and thus, should have all their exams postponed and/or receive passing grades (to take into account their trauma).

It nearly always is not authentic. Their own side or worse, someone looking to aggravate the situation or gain politically from it. Come on, who is dumb enough to do that?

My service club has our weekly lunch today at which will be two MU grads from, one from the 60s, one from the 50s. I know they will not be happy about what is going on over there one bit. I look forward in hearing what they have to say.

these "wimps" have been raised on a steady diet of Kardsahians, Iphone naval gazing, Godlessness and the tit of mom and dads affluence....which generally opens a lot of doors regardless of skill. They competed in grade schools which awarded no winners, and taught to the lowest common denominator, history was absent.....particularly in our Israel hating society of late....bypassing a whole chapter of facism and failed socialist policy

This is what it has bred....and they will think nothing of harming anything which pricks the balloon of worldview they hold

I’d hope that employers are thinking twice about recruiting from there.

She resigned from some courtesy position, not her Professorship.

One is left to wonder how offensive speech directed at Christians and/or Conservatives will be handled.

A return to those thrilling days of S.W.I.N.E. (Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything) A tip of the hat to Al Capp and his Li’l Abner from 1965-1970.

I would not be shocked if it is some teenager overseas, with no connection to the US.
