“[The meeting] was for the students on the floor to process what the incident means with each other, but also to try to figure out if anyone has any information.”

I think I'm going to need counseling.

Well? What was this horrible, terrible awfully awful word?
It sounds like the students are taking it harder that the so called victim. As the kid say nowadays, haters are gonna hate. Sometimes you have to let a bit of rudeness roll off and just keep going. Presuming, that is, the victim did not write the dasterdly word himself to achieve victimhood status.

[lightman]

What ever happened to “stick and stones...”?

[gundog]

A racial slur so bad it must be replaced with “deleted.” I wonder what it could be.

[cripplecreek]

Still no further news on the hate crime attack on April 1st in Ypsilanti Michigan.

Maybe he supports traditional marriage and they called him a “homophobe”?/sarc

[PAR35]

Everyone seems to be missing the real point here. It was a WHTIEBOARD!!!! Obviously, the school administration is racist, or they would have put up a BLACKBOARD.

Cops didn’t take it as a “hate bias crime” when two hispanic yutes jumped out of a car, pulled a gun on me, and told me to “get on the ground nigger!”. “Stay down nigger!” as they took my wallet.

I’m white.

No followup calls. No request for me to provide a sketch artist with a profile.

We call in police and make a campus-wide incident over some ink scribbled on a wall.

We are weak.

$20 says the housekeeper wrote it him/herself.

[Vigilanteman]

I'm with you . . . or asked one of his/her friends to do it so they'd have an excuse for getting the vapors.

Years ago, one of our instructors, who was about to give a lecture on Nitsche's philosophy has written on the board:

"God is Dead" Nitsche

Underneath, we wrote:

"Nitsche is Dead" God

We all had a good chuckle. Today, I suppose, we would've been suspended.

I remember reading about one of these whiteboard-message hoaxes a couple months ago. Not very original.

“$20 says the housekeeper wrote it him/herself.”
****************************************************************

You’re going to end up quite wealthy if you always take such easy bets.

I think you’re likely right-—another hoax.

[equalator]

these things never turn out to be real. Not since the 1880’s

[Organic Panic]

The students were upset? Gimme a friggin break. How many of these yutes,janitor included, listen to NWA, Jay Z, or any other hip hop? If I were the premier of Canada I would storm the borders and conquer the USA.

[GeronL]

I have no idea what this was about. How come they apologized to the “housekeeper” ?

[Sooth2222]

The bathrooms at the school must be biohazard-class filthy, since the housekeeper apparently never sees them and their inevitable graffiti.

[trebb]

This hate bias incident is different from vandalism, Hoaas said, as no one physically damaged the board and the words were erased easily. A hate crime is a criminal act with hateful motivation, such as assault or graffiti, she said. “There’s no crime associated with it,” Hoaas said. “It is an incident; it is something we investigate, but there’s no criminal charges for a hate bias incident.”

Not for long - they will plug that "gaping hole in the law" and future cases will be Class A Hate Crime Felonies (unless of course they are found out to be hoaxes - then they will become "harmless gags").

Canada? Heck these days france could do it
