Pretty dumb alright, how do you catch a bad guy without a thorough description?

But, really their just catching up with what our lame stream media has been doing for awhile, especially since Ferguson.

Can you say "teenager or youth".

Let a white person attack a black person. They will be happy to mention race.

So keeping a segment of the population mollified is more important than warning the student body of a danger or catching the perpetrator? Okay, I’ve got it.

“Moving forward, the University will use descriptions only when there is sufficient detail that would reasonably help identify specific individual suspects or groups of suspects [e.g., some combination of gender, race, clothing,

So I trust they'll be okay with "a group of 50 African-American males in grey hoodies and baggy jeans" -- and not the generic "a group of teens".... right? Isn't that what this explanation says?

So they don’t really care if the students are actually “alerted” do they?

it will no longer include racial descriptors in crime alerts issued to students and faculty.

for emotionalists,a narrative that makes them feel good inside or avoids making them feel bad is more important than reality

Be on the lookout for someone, dressed in some way. He/she is Armed and Extremely Dangerous so don’t attempt anything that might be something.

So unless the 'University' deems that there is enough detail to make the description apply to just about anybody (i.e. not offend protected groups), they'll avoid any general characteristic that would significantly narrow the search down & lead to a resolution, such as sex or skin color. Yep, that'll work…

“This change supports our public safety goals while recognizing the harm that the use of race in crime alerts causes for some members of our community,”

I've read very few sentences that are more bereft of reality. Just pathetic.

They have been doing this BS for years during Richmond "Crime Stoppers" Radio breaks. So here is how to play this game. If the perp is white,Hispanic or Asian the detective will say white, Hispanic or Asian. But if there is no mention of race THEN ASSUME BLACK.

Officer: 911. What do you want to report?

Caller: Just saw a murder!

Officer: Can you describe the murderer?

Caller: It was a man or a woman!

Officer: Thank you! We’ll be right on it!

So if they DON’T state the the criminals race...assume Black?..how stupidly racist is that..

This is the University of Minnesota, just another extension of the major Marxist influence on the whole state, from communist/radical professors, congressthings, the red-affiliated Secy of State, the Al Franken election stealing thanks to Secy of State Mark Ritchie, jihad-central in Minneapolis, the old Democratic-Farm-Labor Party that the Communist Party literally tookover many decades ago and became a major player in the Democrat Party, etc.

The more you look into the political ideology of the state of Minnesota, the more you will color it real RED.

Now crime has been homogenized to “be on the lookout for a male, about 5”6” to 5’10”, wearing a jacket, pants, and shirt, who may or may not have a committed a crime on campus” but don’t tell us what his/her race was because they would be discriminatory and would taint the jury pool.

From the Marxist, cowardly Administrator and the Kampus Keystone Kops. Also remember that Minneapolis has had a series of police chiefs so liberal that even criminals supported them.
