Missouri Faculty to Walk Out in Solidarity With Students
ABC ^ | 11/9/15

Posted on 11/09/2015 5:20:24 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

The Concerned Faculty group at the University of Missouri is to begin a two-day walkout today in support of student activists who say the school has done too little to address their concerns about racism and racial intolerance on campus.

"We, the concerned faculty of the University of Missouri, stand in solidarity with the Mizzou student activists who are advocating for racial justice on our campus and urge all MU faculty to demonstrate their support by walking out on Monday.....

This is in Missouri, where Ferguson, St Louis and state officials let the rabble-rousers burn the city. Is there any evidence whatsoever that whites are guilty of anything? The timing seems so convenient for these incidents to have happened.

In a sane world, those football players and the coach that supports them would be GONE. There must be plenty of students with some football skills who wouldn't mind being offered a full scholarship. And the coach? Anyone goes along with this lack of team discipline should already be GONE!

Sports teams are supposed to provide strong guidance for acceptable behavior, for heaven's sake.

Can Missouri (the state) be saved?

Sounds like MO legislature just got handed a golden opportunity to cut spending.

If allowed to continue, those stupid professors will have to give their students “A” for not attending class. Mommy and Daddy should be thrilled to put up money so little Brad and Bambi can cut classes.

Based on what we’re seeing at UM and Yale, most liberal arts colleges in the US could be shut down with very little intellectual loss.

Revoke tenure of any faculty member who refuses to teach.

Of course the racist faculty walk out in support of the racist students. American universities have been a major tool in creating SJWs.

Just as in the 60’s it’s to society’s shame that parents don’t raise their children to know foolishness when they’re taught it. Allowing students to be spoonfed liberal poison from the age of 5 yields adults who are brainwashed and unable to critically think.

With each generation America accepts more and more of liberal propaganda as fact. It’s death by a thousand cuts.

"We, the concerned faculty of the University of Missouri, stand in solidarity with the Mizzou student activists who are advocating for racial justice on our campus and urge all MU faculty to demonstrate their support by walking out "

And I am quite certain that few if any of them know why the President has been targeted. Supposedly, someone keep yelling "the n-word" at blacks on campus (as if their music doesn't do that 4000 times per day), and SOMEONE made a swastika out of feces on campus... and the President has not done "enough" about it, despite there being zero evidence of who has done any of it...

and even the football players who may not play ADMITTED TO REPORTERS that they would not do this if they were having a better season. Even black athletes are afraid to not follow along on the race-hate trains these days.

"... football players at the university said they won't participate in team activities until university President Tim Wolfe is removed."

After losing their last 4 games and falling to 4-5, what's a team to do? Try harder for the final 3 games? No, that's too hard!

If you're Black you have an easier response to personal failure... the race-card.

Does anyone believe they would have pulled this phony racism ploy if the team was 7-0?

“......activists who are advocating for racial justice on our campus........”........

These same activists need to direct some of their attention at many of their peers, those who act like animals and street rats, which add cause the racial tensions. Granted there is racial prejudice but who is pushing and thereby creating it? Why not take their grips directly to odumbo himself, the neighborhood organizer that has rekindled all these problems?/p>

Sorry for tailgating your point on the team’s losing record. When I started my post, your post wasn’t up.

We won't even drive across Missouri on I-70 anymore. Evil part of the world.

Only the two big cities. The rural parts are quite nice and civil. Very conservative.

I heard that students and faculty have demanded that all compasses be banned from the campus because they all have “N” at the top.

I'm guessing that the players aren't outraged enough to give up all their free Nike gear and go eat in the regular cafeteria with the nonathletic students.

Outrage has its limits.

Actually KCMO is pretty nice. You may not have noticed but the Royals just won the World Series. Almost 1 mil showed up for the parade and the rally and there were only three arrests. No burnings, everybody just having a great time. During the Ferguson riots there was nothing going on here. Over the years we’ve had some feral youth trying to make trouble at the Plaza but that’s now totally under control.

Close the whole, damned college down. Screw ‘em!

If this is what passes for education in Missouri, save the money!
