This is what counts are “racial unrest” these days. These people make these outrageous demands/claims and the leadership completely caves. This is extremely disturbing.

This kind of blackmail is just the beginning.
It encourages more of this repulsive behavior.

We demand...or else?

How many miles with folks give until the protected classes are satisfied?

We all know the answer.

Sounds like they want a war.

How come the football team is mostly black?

Shouldn’t there be a quota to get white guys on the team?

So a mostly black team forced him out because they’re powerless on campus?

And now they want him replaced with a black guy so they can end racial discrimination on campus?

And they don’t see the irony in all of this?

There’s a bunch of idiots at MU.

And it was all based on claims of racial incidents the university tried to deal with but couldn’t find the culprit. Or in at least one case a private conversation off campus between two students where one claimed the other uses a racial slur that he denied.

Reichstag fire moment.

The Fascism of Political Correctness has silenced another person and forced them to resign.

The Obama race war is fully ignited.

There is so much more to this story than you’ll ever hear about on the news.

But go ahead and call the guy a wuss...

What they want is for everybody to be forced into “choosing” to think exactly the way they think. The 11th commandment: thou shalt believe as the radical left does. They’re only a few years away from demanding “reeducation” camps.

Oh, wait, did I say years? I meant “today”. From their list of demands:
“IV. We demand that the University of Missouri creates and enforces comprehensive racial awareness and inclusion curriculum throughout all campus departments and units, mandatory for all students, faculty, staff, and administration. This curriculum must be vetted, maintained, and overseen by a board comprised of students, staff, and faculty of color.”

Off to the camp with you, comrade.

What was the trigger for this racial unrest? I don’t see it anywhere in any article

Anybody still think we can be integrated (with a few exceptions)?

So here’s the model now for all universities and frankly, employers.

1. have “incidents” occur. There do not have to be any victims or suspects.
2. find anything else you want to complain about (number of employees of a certain race, not enough funding for racial studies, etc)
3. demand “action”, even if no action can be defined or is possible.
4. after “period of time” demand white official be fired for “inaction”
5. Replace with minority or at least a white that his their “mind right”.

I’m really interested in this. Anything more you can tell us would be welcomed. To me, this is a bad precedent to set.

Is Wolfe a liberal? I am assuming that he is. If so, it is ‘just desserts’ that a white liberal gets done in by PC and race baters.

Blacks have cried wolf far to many times for me to believe anything they say. The football players don’t want to play, cut all funding for the program.

Someone shouted the N-word from a pickup truck at some black member of the faculty, then someone made a swastika out of poop in one of the dorms. Apparently this amounts to institutional racism, so a bunch of radicals shut down the homecoming parade, blocking the pres’ car. He didn’t jump out and lock arms with them. Then they accosted him in KC trying to get him to agree that this is institutional racism. He told them they’re biggest problem is they think they don’t have equal opportunity. That’s it. They’re not even claiming there’s anything else.

If the students insist on a black President of the college, I hope Dr. Ben Carson is appointed.

Ok, thanks.

So Wolfe got scapegoated for something he had nothing to do with just because he didn’t agree with them? Some student (I’m guessing it wasn’t faculty?) does something stupid, the President doesn’t immediately agree with the protesters and he has to go?

How does removing Wolfe help the “victims” cause (and I use the word victim in it’s loosest, most sarcastic sense).
