MANHATTAN, Kan. (WIBW) - Kansas State is launching an “immediate review of the university’s options” after a tweet by a student making light of the death of George Floyd.
Jaden McNiel, whose Twitter bio identifies him as the president and founder of “America First Students,” wrote: “Congratulations to George Floyd on being drug free for an entire month!”
As a result, as of 11:00 a.m. Friday, “K-State” is trending nationally on Twitter.

Kids have no sense. I guess he better look for another school. At least schools not on session so he can apply somewhere else under a new identity preferably. I think people think twitter is only for those you chose to follow.

Freedom of speech has never included freedom from consequences. Just means the government can’t do anything to you. But everybody else is free to shun, mock and ban you.

Well, the radical left did make a celebrity of him, and all kinds of things are said about celebrities.

If there are death threats against him, those are illegal. Law enforcement should be doing something about those.

Come on people, it’s a JOKE.
If you don’t like it, don’t laugh.
He was just another person, nothing sanctified.

So, K State is going to kick him out of the classes they won’t be holding this fall?
