With that grovelling “full responsibility” kowtow to the football coach and loudest demonstrators, I would expect that he resigned “out of love” for the Platinum Parachute he was offered in exchange.

Either that or he’s a spineless wuss. How does the Left continue to rule academia even in conservative states?

I hope the Missou Tigers lose out the rest of the season.

Full Circle. See Free Speech Movement, 1964. Except Clark Kerr had the courage, and the Board caved.

Let’s see, there’s more rules but I forget them right now

Deny, deny, deny.

Make counter accusations.

Hey, it worked for Bill.

The Football Team is a whopping 4-5 and next to last in the SEC

I think they went about 5 games without even scoring a Touchdown.

Payton Head, the black and homosexual Missouri Student Association President, manufactured this entire mess by claiming he was called a “nigger” and a “faggot” by some nameless, faceless person shouting from the bed of a passing pickup truck. We’ve seen so many of these trumped up, fake situations on college campuses in recent years — always turns out to be the leftist jerk who invents the entire fantasy. Now a university president has lost his job, and the white players on the Missouri football team are angry with the black players. Race relations were on the upswing until Obama and his Communist claque came to power and stirred the pot.

I am quite sure the financial support of the athletics and university will be seriously reduced next year. At least, I hope so.

They can’t articulate it because they finally wised up and realized that most of their manufactured incidents were usually discovered. So now they keep it vague like “a hostile work environment” for example and so get much more mileage out of their demands.

The above and choosing their spineless targets wisely will be much more successful than their amateur hoaxes of the past.

The part about the swastika of feces on the wall of a restroom is so insane. Are the blacks protesting their treatment by whites or Jews? How does a swastika relate to black people?

This whole exercise is a continuation of Ferguson. I have not heard of a single valid act of discrimination that has occurred on the Mizzou cammpus yet. And another thing, the blacks represent about 10% of the student body and that mirrors the general population so what is their gripe. The blacks had better wake up and realize that as more illegal hispanics pour into the country, their percentage goes down.

The only winners are the agitators--no one else benefits. But now activists at other universities may take notice and try similar tactics.

I wonder if it is no coincidence that this happened in the same state as Ferguson.

Will the poor oppressed black students ALLOW a WHITE PERSON to be appointed?

will they demand that ONE OF THEM be in charge?

Would a GAY, crippled, trans—JENNERed, White blind person be acceptable?

I'm sure the University is going to be out a few million dollars is severance and finding a replacement plus loss of donations from disgusted alumni, so tuition rates are going to go up. I'm guessing none of these protestors are actually paying their own way, so they don't give a rat's ass what it costs.

I have little doubt that the president was forced to resign “or else.” This is all about football money, and not at all about justice.

1. Expel every one of them.
2. Keep their tuition or bill them for any scholarships given.
3. Arrest them for trespassing if they are found on any campus property starting midnight.

Set the example of whose in charge and will not be blackmailed.
