Demonstrators at Missouri State University who were met with racial slurs and gun gestures during a silent march protesting fatal police shootings are receiving apologies and support from the school.
University officials said in a statement Tuesday that the school does not condone or tolerate the harassment of people who were exercising their free speech rights during the protest through Saturday's homecoming festivities, The Springfield News-Leader reported.

Imagine going to Howard U and decrying the "Knock Out game" played by urban yutes.... You would be labeled a racist.
Thank God, they didn’t try to hand out bibles or copies of the constitution!
As for the students expressing disgust by using hoots and “racial slurs” to the disruption, no free speech for you!
Or imagine a rally for traditional marriage. There are some causes for which the university would not be so tolerant of.
Or imagine a protest rally to promote a legal lynching of a black man who killed a white criminal in self-defense . . .
Unless those speaking happen to be Christians or Conservatives.
Exactly.
If events were disrupted by Christians rallying urging all to accept Christ, they would have been evicted.
Ditto, if protesters marched for traditional marriage, or opposing global warming, or abortion, or any liberal cause of the day.
But, because the protesters were pushing the Ferguson racist meme, then that’s considered ok.
It sure is frustrating when liberals say they do things for a certain reason, and they insult our intelligence when they do so. And they will never be called out by the media for pushing liberal clap trap.
Bigoted blacks marching to demand a white be lynched were met with racial slurs? Video or it didn't happen; racist blacks cry wolf all the time.
“Demonstrators at Missouri State University who were met with racial slurs and gun gestures”
Hmmm, I’m sure SOMEONE had a cellphone on ‘em and caught some video right?
WTF were they doing in Springfield ?
Yes, the 'oh so cool and politically correct' would NOT like that at all...
Oh, boy. Students with tudes and angry, feral blacks.
Popcorn, anyone?
News slanted always in their favor, no matter how criminal, corrupt, degenerate, and wrong they are.
“Racism” is a genetic defect found only in Caucasians
March of the Zombies....
Nothing less than indictment, conviction and carrying out the maximum sentence possible, of Darren Wilson, will be accepted by these Zombies.
No question, that a sidearm held by Officer Wilson fired several bullets into the body of Michael Brown. The dispute is WHY the officer was shooting at Michael Brown.
Clearly, this was not all happening in a vacuum. The “gentle giant” had just committed several provocative actions, that led the officer to consider the use of deadly force one of very few viable options he had.
In response to a lawful request by the police office to get off the main vehicular thoroughfare and move to the sidewalk, Brown chose to disobey, and in fact, reached INTO the police vehicle in which the officer was sitting, and attempted to wrest the sidearm from the officer’s possession.
Immediately, the equation changes. The pistol discharged, whether by Brown or the officer is immaterial. Apparently Brown was wounded, and turned away from the vehicle and fled. The officer, now able to step out of the car with drawn weapon, demanded the “gentle giant” stop. Brown turned, and in a show of bravado, decided to rush the officer, to again attempt to gain possession of the weapon.
Bad judgment. The officer, seeing imminent danger to himself, began firing at the assailant, striking him in the arm and elsewhere on his body. The officer continued firing until the assailant fell, bleeding and dying, virtually at the officer’s feet.
This is no less than the officer would have done if confronted by a rabid and crazed animal. Self-defense is always justified in that instance, by whatever means necessary.
Does free speech only apply to the Ferguson crowd?
I’m confused.
.
The wheel is starting to turn. People are fed up.
Question:...just who was making racial slurs and gun gestures at who?..
The papers does not spell it out but leaves it for the reader to infer.. thats the first red flag....
The gun gesture comments is the second red flag..
Who it is that advocating violence if they do not get what they want?
Yep!
I hope you are correct.
Good assessment.
