What the kid did was in poor taste, but I would not classify it as ‘wrong’. In my opinion, it does not warrant school suspension much less arrest.
Does that make me a racist?
If so, then everyone who calls a white guy ‘privileged’, ‘racist’, ‘homophobic’, etc. is also a racist.
I think the biggest issue with liberals today, it that they have become so thin skinned that they get insulted at everything. It’s time for people to once again ‘grow-up’ and become adults.
Detention for a month and an apology essay read at an assembly.
“ What the kid did was in poor taste, but I would not classify it as ‘wrong’. In my opinion, it does not warrant school suspension much less arrest.”
Therefore, someone could take a picture of a daughter, sister, niece or granddaughter and without their consent, post their picture on a site offering sexual services?
Maybe someone should write a book about that. They could title it "Triggered."

Yes, it does. How I don’t know. Hell, I do not even know what a racists is. I suspect that it is one of those politically correct words that means what they want it to at any given time. But all that being said, everything you, I, and the targeted segment of the population does or says is racists.
The terms you mentioned are pejoratives and are intended to be insults when directed at the target[s]. And no, they are not considered to be racists. Because those individuals or individual these terms are directed toward are not considered human in the view of those hurling these words. These words are designed to isolate, define,identify, and mark for later destruction their targets by those who employ them.
The National Socialists had their term[s]. The Old Communists had their term[s]. And the New Communists have their term[s]. The common thread among them is they all have led to the destruction or near destruction of their targets.
Heed the lessons of the past and do not become a part of them.
