“Our students are hurting tremendously. They're weeping. They're crying.”


Some prankster left a message on a computer screen and these hot house flowers are hurting, weeping and crying. At the same time a woman is getting stoned to death in Afghanistan for "adultery".

Good Gawd!

What’s pathetic is that there is a very high likelihood that this racist threat was made by a person of color with an agenda.

Waiting for them to find out a black person did it.

That almost goes without saying at this point, doesn’t it? It’s always a planted message.

i don’t approve of racist messages but
this sounds like just another clever excuse
for a bunch of delinquent druggy kids to cut class

cutting off their own noses to spite their faces

they should stay in class and get an education!
Bezerkeley is already full of smelly welfare takers...
but it is commutable to Palo Alto where there are dozens of major corporations offering good salaries for the highly educated engineers and scientists that the University of California, which is right there in Berkeley, can train

the kids have a choice what kind of future they want for themselves

right now, by playing hookey and not geting an education, they aint making a good choice for themselves

just saying, we don’t need more welfare recpients
Obama is importing them by the millions anyway

And it affected their education not one wit.

Which says a whole lot about their “school”.

Wonder who the real racist at Berkeley High School are? Possibly members of the Berkeley High Black Student Union? Is there a white student union, a Latino student union, an Asian student union? Do you have to be black to be a member?

If I could time travel the kids from my High School in the 90s to this place, they would own these wimps. Even the nerdy ones like me!

The cops called it a hate crime. They will give a lot of time to finding the criminals who wrote words. So what if they don’t solve a few rapes or murders.
