When will the safe spaces on these campuses actually happen? I can't wait to see the brave white guy go take a seat in the "safe space." Easy lawsuits for everyone.

30 page thread over some insignificant message on group chat and y'all wonder why people bait social media with this stuff. It gets crazy amounts of attention.

In the terms and conditions for the use of the forums, it says specifically that quotation marks "shield the poster from aviary intervention or retribution." Besides, I would never use a racist term, my butt is hurt that you even think I would. Thought about RA'ing, but I'ma let it slide this time. ....this time

I have a problem with this. I think the things that they said were childish and pretty dumb. But this was people talking amongst themselves, apparently in a conversation where you had to be invited to participate.

I don't give a shite what people say among themselves, family and friends. If you're a racist bastard, then let it out in your own living room.

What kind of piece of shite person takes a screen shot of a private conversation, then goes and informs on these people to the nearest offended person he can find?

I don't care what the conversation was about. Race, sexism, politics, religion, doesn't matter. Are we really going to be Snitch Nation from here on out?

If you feel like the people in the private chat shouldn't be protected from public shame and (likely) institutional punishment because they are racist fricks, then I got news for you... whatever your dirty little thought is... someone is going to snitch on you, too one day. We need to shut this shite down.

These people in the group chat weren't talking about blowing up the school or hurting anyone. They were just trading tasteless racist jokes with each other, and they weren't doing it with the expectation that it go public. They need to be set straight. But doing it like this? Nah, man... this isn't right.

Obvious and unfortunate, probably drunken, attempt at humor. Assuming these are isolated, SLU should request apologies via the same account(s). Lesson learned . . . move on.

The left loves to paint The right as neo-Nazi but they are the ones to commonly use fascist rhetoric and tactics.

The lowest form of scum, a snitch. The community has led the fight against snitching for a long time. It's time us "crackers" joined the fight.

To the best of my knowledge, SLU is a Catholic, Jesuit private research university.

It may receive federal funding. Does it matter if it does? Is anybody's liberty being taken away here?

Damn shame (white) people get into trouble for talking out loud these days and can still catch hell a year later

But everyone else is free to say whatever they want. No consequences.
