University of Mississippi opens student conduct probe after confrontation between Black student and counterprotesters

The University of Mississippi has opened a student conduct investigation after actions of “hostility and racist overtones” were portrayed during a demonstration on campus.

The incident unfolded Thursday on the school’s campus during a heated exchange between a group of pro-Palestinian protesters and a much larger group of counterprotesters.

About 30 pro-Palestinian protesters were demonstrating in a barricaded zone when they were surrounded by an estimated 200 counterprotesters, some holding American flags, several Trump flags and some dressed in red, white, and blue.

While there are multiple videos circulating online showing the protest at varying times, one video in particular shows a group of mostly young white men in the counterprotest yelling at a Black woman, at least one counterprotester is seen on video making what appears to be monkey gestures at the woman, although CNN has not confirmed that is the case, as she records the group on her phone.

CNN is desperate to fan the flames.

Ole Miss students were heroic in their counter protest.

A bunch of guys screaming “Death to America!” and “Infantida” were offended by something someone else was saying?

A counter-protester jumps up and down and hoots like a monkey toward a protester who was live-streaming on her phone at @OleMiss today.

If you support terrorists you are with the terrorists
If you are with the terrorist you are a terrorist.

” young white men ...yelling at a Black woman...”


First, so why is ‘white’ lower case and ‘Black’ upper case? And is yelling at a black woman who supports terrorists somehow not allowed?

The bigger the lies in a story, the more reporters CNN needs to sign off on them.

Because they want us to feel victimized by a caps key.
It’s code for me to stop reading.

I can’t imagine giving these idiots the power of thinking such stupid antics matter in my world.

U Miss has no problem with a group supporting the destruction of Israel, the extermination of Jews, a terrorist attack where 1200 civilians were murdered, raped, mutilated, babies burned to death in front of their mothers, etc, but are outraged that some white guy MAY have made a monkey gesture at a black girl? The University’s moral compass is seriously F-ed up.
