The black St. Peter’s Prep student who purportedly received racist text messages warning him to drop out of the Jersey City high school's student government election sent the texts to himself, a school official confirmed last week.

“The entire Saint Peter's Prep community is relieved that this extremely distressing incident has found closure, and we commend the various law enforcement officials for their diligent work on this case over the past months,” said school spokesman James Horan, who confirmed the result of the probe after its disclosure by a police source.

The 16-year-old was running for president for the Student Council in May when he supposedly received four hateful text messages. He brought them to the attention of school officials who called in his father and police.

"We have NEVER and will NEVER have an (n-word) to lead our school," was one of the messages supposedly sent to the 16-year-old student, who at the time, was a resident in Jersey City.

Hate Crime Hoaxes

Claremont Hate Crime Called Hoax
LA Times (FR thread) | March 17. 2004 | Joy Buchanan, Kristina Sauerwein and Stuart Silverstein

A week after a reported campus hate crime drew national attention, sparked protests and shut down the prestigious Claremont Colleges, police on Wednesday called the incident a hoax staged by a professor who slashed tires, shattered windows and spray-painted racist graffiti on her own car.

Claremont McKenna College psychology professor Kerri Dunn, who had told police that her car was vandalized as she spoke at a March 9 forum on racism, was identified by two eyewitnesses as the person who damaged the auto, authorities said Wednesday.

Professor Kerri Dunn vandalized her own car and then led "Stop The Hate" rallies on campus.

When it gets to the point where even children are playing the race card for political advantage, it's become a cliché and it's pretty much all used up.

If it's so cliche, then why do they still play it?

I'll tell you why - BECAUSE IT STILL WORKS.

1) Why is he no longer attending that school? Was he expelled, was daddy so fearful of the imaginary racist students, did the family move or what?

2) Apparently he was popular enough to get elected VP unless he got the office through PC and white guilt.

3) Don't the police have anything better to do than run down teen texts?

4) Oooooh, hope this get put on his permanent record.

The kid should spend more time studying spelling and grammar and less time stirring up trouble. Someone who can't communicate effectively doesn't deserve to be president of anything.
