A student of color is reportedly behind racist graffiti found Monday morning in a bathroom at a private Catholic all-girls school in Brighton, New York. Our Lady of Mercy School for Young Women, a grade 6 through grade 12 school located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester, announced Thursday that its investigation into the graffiti containing a racial slur has ended with a student coming forward and taking responsibility for writing the offensive message. "This school is filled with a bunch of n*ggers. Get out or else!!" the graffiti said. .....

Syracuse University has been wracked by racial protests this month following anti-black and anti-Asian messages in a bathroom and bulletin board. Unsurprisingly, student activists are making racialized demands including the right to exclude white roommates. An individual or group apparently went too far in trying to keep the outrage going, however. A reported “white supremacist manifesto” send to students’ phones “was probably a hoax,” Chancellor Kent Syverud told the University Senate Wednesday, ABC 7 reports. Authorities have not found a single recipient of the manifesto, which “appeared to be a copy of one linked to a man accused of attacking...

A group of people carrying a white nationalist flag were caught on camera Saturday attempting to record a video in front of the Emmett Till memorial in Sumner, Mississippi. Patrick Weems, executive director of the Emmett Till Memorial Commission, told NBC News that the group was captured on camera by a new surveillance system that was updated when the bulletproof memorial was dedicated on Oct. 19. "This is the first incident we’ve seen of what appears to be white nationalists making a propaganda video," Weems said. One man can be heard in the video identifying the sign as a monument...

Actor Jussie Smollett, who faked an anti-black, anti-gay hate crime against himself in the dead of the Chicago winter, and then escaped charges on likely political connections for filing a false police report, is starting to inspire copy cats looking for the same sweet deal. Here's one from New York from the New York Post: A Manhattan straphanger who claimed to have been attacked by two men yelling gay slurs was actually the one doing the attacking, according to police. Cops say the 25-year-old, who has not been identified, set upon the two men at the Chambers St. station in Tribeca...

Amid the racism and sexism scandal roiling the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), former employees have revealed the far-left smear factory's list of "hate groups" as a cynical fundraising scam. Last year, the SPLC paid $3.375 million to settle a defamation lawsuit involving similar accusations. Now more than 60 organizations falsely accused of being "hate groups" are mulling lawsuits, and at least one lawsuit will come as soon as this summer. Former SPLC employee Bob Moser described "the annual hate-group list" as "a valuable resource for journalists and a masterstroke of Dees’s marketing talents; every year, when the center publishes...

The Air Force Academy says racial slurs posted outside the dorm rooms of five black students were written by one of those students.

The Air Force Academy says racial slurs posted outside the dorm rooms of five black students were written by one of those students. The announcement Tuesday was a jarring turn in an episode that prompted the academy's superintendent to make a widely viewed speech warning that racists were not welcome at the school. The academy says the student is no longer at the school, but a spokesman declined to say whether the student withdrew or was expelled.

The President at St. Olaf College has informed members of the campus community that a racist note an African-American woman found on her car April 29 was fabricated . President David R. Anderson wrote in an an email that the note was "apparently a strategy to draw attention to concerns about the campus climate." The school confirmed the email was sent, as well as an earlier email from Anderson informing the campus community the school had confirmed the note was not a genuine threat. Students said the woman discovered a typed note that read, in part, "I am so glad...

A church organist was arrested Wednesday after he vandalized his own church with a swastika and pro-Trump graffiti in order to “mobilize a movement.” George Nathaniel Stang, 26, admitted in a handwritten statement to spray painting a swastika, “fag church,” and “heil Trump” on St. David’s Episcopal Church in Bean Blossom, Indiana. “I suppose I wanted to give local people a reason to fight for good, even if it was a false flag,” Stang wrote, according to a local NBC report. “To be clear my actions were not motivated by hate for the church or its congregation. I of course...

Aviation students at Indiana State University will need a new teacher. That’s because Professor Azhar Hussain was arrested on Friday for making up an assault, and also anti-Muslims threats. Not only might he face prison time, but his employers have already distanced themselves from him. In a statement obtained by LawNewz.com, the school said charges originate from a number of emails with anti-Muslim messages and threats. Back then it wasn’t clear who sent these, only that the writer pointed out Hussain as a possible target. The first of these messages occurred on March 8, and things didn’t end there. On...

A man still obsessing over an angry encounter at a West Knox County body shop six years later posed as the owner, pretended to be a racist and sent a graphic, threatening letter to the daughter of the pastor of one of East Knoxville's most prominent churches, court records filed Wednesday show. ...

PLANO (CBSDFW.COM) – After two months, Plano Police have made two arrests of alleged vandals said to have painted graffiti all over Plano West Senior High.

A 21-year-old Ann Arbor woman pleaded guilty as charged to one count of false report of a misdemeanor in 15th District Court on Monday, March 6. Halley Bass admitted in court that she fabricated a story about a strange man scratching her face in downtown Ann Arbor on Nov. 15. “I was suffering from depression at the time,” Bass told Judge Elizabeth Pollard Hines. “I made a superficial scratch on my face. It was visible and I was embarrassed about what I’d done. So I made up a story and told a friend that a stranger had done it while...

How many hateful acts are actually committed by “rightists”? So few, apparently, that leftists have repeatedly seen fit to fake them.Yet another example comes to us from Chicago’s North Park University in Illinois, where an openly bisexual college student was found to have fabricated a story about having received anti-homosexual, pro-Trump notes. As NBC 5 had reported November 15, before the deception was revealed: Taylor Volk says she is openly bisexual — and last week the North Park University senior from DeKalb was singled out by a hateful note she found taped to her door Friday morning. The note reads...

On Tuesday, Calum McSwiggan — an openly gay YouTube star who's known for discussing LGBT issues in his videos — posted a disturbing photo to Instagram. It showed him in a hospital bed with a heart rate monitor connected to his finger and a bandage on his forehead. "Last night was one of the worst night [sic] of my life," the caption read, going on to describe an attack outside a gay club in Los Angeles. "The authorities should have been there to help and protect me but instead they treated me like a second class citizen," he said. "With...

It was a story that drove Black Lives Matter advocates and the local media into a tizzy – Three young black women allegedly assaulted by 10-12 white men and women on a CDTA bus, all the while being barraged with racial slurs. It even received national coverage when leading Democrat presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, tweeted this message of support for the story and the girls involved

Of course it was fake. When Tahera Ahmad described a horror-show aboard a United flight from Chicago’s O’Hare to Washington Dulles in which a flight attendant told her she couldn’t have a Diet Coke because she may use it “as a weapon,” it never rang true to me. Honestly, it didn’t pass the laugh test.  She may as well have described the scene in the violent movie “Pulp Fiction” where Bruce Willis’ character finds himself taken prisoner along with Marcellus Wallace in a torture dungeon under a pawn shop.  The melodrama of “I felt the hate in his voice and...
