Racism at University of Missouri is real, whether you believe it or not
Kansas City Star ^ | 11/12/15 | Jeneé Osterheldt

For months, I have been reading about racism there. I didn't want to write about it. I was exhausted from the never-ending flood of injustice I see as I write about women's rights, #blacklivesmatter, marriage equality and more. It hurt to dive into the dynamics at the University of Missouri, where two students scattered cotton balls outside the campus Black Culture Center a couple of years ago.

This one is a must-read just to see how she explains this "never-ending flow of injustice" all around her.

No doubt. Just the other day there were nooses loaded with minorities all over the campus. Fookin’ idjits. These ungrateful little snots have NO clue what hard times are.

Cotton balls. The horror! I read the entire piece without being able to decide if it was satire or not until the last paragraph. I'm guessing it is not.

My gosh, this silly stunt, even if true, happened a couple of years ago. And people are still reeling from it?

What fragile kids! They do not stand a chance! What if some of the opposing fans on the football field say something unkind? They will be crushed!

Who has been in charge of higher education for years?

Answer: Liberals/Democrats

This little twit would probably pass-out if an original thought ever popped up in her undeveloped brain.

I’d like to take her to my wifes farm in the Philippines and let her live in the tenants house for a week... They have nothing new or fancy but they are happy and have plenty to eat... They work hard and their children all get good grades in school.

The antics at Missouri are only one instance of a far larger disease. Daily the country ties itself in knots to keep blacks happy, which is impossible — to placate them, to soothe their disturbances, give them everything they want but can’t or won’t earn. Nothing satisfies them. They shut down political meetings, loot shoe stores, burn cities.

We give and give and give — Head Start, Section Eight housing, AFDC, Obamaphones, medical care, free rides at universities. If they can’t pass a test, we abolish the test and apologize, apologize, apologize. Do they want to burn Baltimore? We back away, give them space, for they are troubled youth. And we apologize. It never stops.

Nobody ever, ever, tells them “No.” Might this be called Black Privilege?

I read the whole article to get the story on this: "where two students scattered cotton balls outside the campus Black Culture Center a couple of years ago". I was curious what was racist about that. She never says.

As it happens, I've seen something similar done. A student I know carrying an open box of cotton balls for a science experiment lost a huge number in a sudden wind gust. He hurried away, to get them indoors and safe from the wind, then returned to chase down escaping balls (unsuccessfully). I wonder how many snowflakes my friend traumatized with those cotton balls. It looks like fluff is worse than snakes or spiders - to some people. I wonder if we'll see a cotton ball attack in the next great horror movie.

You never hear black students attending conservative schools complain about racism.

...the campus Black Culture Center...

If anyone holds himself apart, he will be apart. Then, apparently, he will complain when attention is drawn to the fact that he holds himself apart.

“Someone called him the N-word”

Gasp! The horror! When blacks stop using it 10,000 times per conversation, and clean up their music, THEN come talk to me about ‘the N-word’. Until then, shut up.

You know what kills me about this whole narrative is that in each overt, documented case of white-on-black racism, the university/police caught the individuals and dealt with them appropriately. The only ones that haven't been caught are poop-swaztica guy, and random drive-by called me N word guy.

Is there fringe racisma and sexism out there? Absolutely. With ALL races and both sexes. But we treat the kooks like kooks and deal with them appropriately.

The problem with these protesters is that they paint the whole for the actions of a few. You want me to reverse the tables on that one?

Hate to tell the #BLM punks, but the "N" word is probably being said by whites a lot more lately. Backlash is the "B" word.

Do we even know if there’s such a person as the “poop-swastika guy”? I’ve been searching in vain for three or four days now for so much as a picture of it and can’t find one. I’m increasingly of the opinion that it never existed. If if did, you have to assume it would be plastered in every single news story about this whole mess.
