re: Reveille Columnist claims to see a noose on LSU's campus...

Its just so obvious that they want there to be racial strife

oh yeah

that's why they have to make up these racist incidents so often

Oh no, she isn't stopping there. Now she HAS to find a way to be offended.

I bet he can jump. I have some Sicilian in me and me and my son jump better than most black folks. Just saying

I was wrong, it was a wire that fell. But if black students were more accepted here, I wouldn't have thought a noose

Considering what is currently happening in this country, someone hanging a noose certainly seems plausible. #IStandWithMizzou

Black students all over are being threatened for speaking out. I've previously been threatened for talking about race at LSU.

Again, I was wrong - but, a wire falling out of a tree is less likely than my presence being threatened, tbh.

-LSU does a pretty good job stretching their budget and hiring the best faculty they can afford....many of whom are minorities.
-LSU's football coach (possibly the most powerful man on campus) voiced support for people protesting racism on campuses.
-LSU is home to black Greek organizations and student clubs that operate freely on campus.
-Hundreds of black athletes on the LSU campus are practically worshiped and adored and discussed by both students and alumni daily.
-The most glaring example of police brutality in the region involved two black cops shooting a 6 year old white boy in Marksville. Thankfully, Ferguson is nowhere near Baton Rouge.
-East Baton Rouge's mayor is black and the parish council district surrounding most of the LSU campus is represented by a black female.





This won't escalate beyond a poorly-attended rally at LSU, Alabama, UGA, etc. unless outside forces get involved. The goal at these rallies is to draw attention to certain attention-whores and to install political infrastructure that will eventually be used as GOTV tools for politicians in 2016.

Students and alumni should ignore the stupidity and continue to point out how awesome LSU is to people. If valid concerns are brought up, address them or explain why they can't be addressed.

Don't publicaly engage people who are bent on being miserable on campus or work very hard to be offended by the landscaping.

It's not self-created. It's a result of the liberal education system in this country. They are practically inciting a riot while claiming to fight oppression.

symbols, like gender, are symbols that are only valid by self perception

i'm a former super liberal (pre-SJW times, but a SJW for the 90s and first half of the 00s)

the perceptions are still self-created. it's silly to take away individual agency over their decision making

This and her comments on white people eating Popeyes are her worst offenses. She must go

The most beloved kid at LSU right now is Leonard Fournette, and the most beloved alum at LSU is Shaq. Both black.

Because of their physical talents. They work hard to make money for their college masters without getting paid. Sounds a lot like slavery does it not? White people cheer on athletes because it remind them of blacks out in the cotton fields.

I'm just going to write that off as a poor attempt at trolling
