Lesson in hate for high schooler who criticized Black Lives Matter
fox news ^ | 3/29/16 | Perry Chiarmonte

A Philadelphia high school journalist who took on Black Lives Matter in a column for the school paper, only to be driven into home-schooling, says his torment didn't end when he withdrew.

It was just before Christmas break when 17-year-old University of Pennsylvania-bound Michael Moroz wrote an opinion piece for the Central High school paper, the Centralizer.

In it, he criticized the racially charged University of Missouri protests at the time and suggested that Michael Brown, the black teenager killed in 2014 by a white police officer in Ferguson, Mo., was "a delinquent" who was "at worst, justifiably killed, and at best, a thug."

"If someone who called for me to be shot gets a day suspension, then I imagine these students got a stern high five.” -

- Michael Moroz

When the column hit the paper’s Facebook page, threats poured in. Moroz said he was forced to stay home initially, and when he returned, threats and harassment prompted him to withdraw and finish his senior year on home study.

“When everything started to happen, I was surprised,” Moroz told FoxNews.com. “Whenever we posted an op-ed, we never got a reaction like I did with this one. In retrospect, I was naive to think that this would have been the same. Now, it’s more disappointing than anything.”

Amazing that anyone who is not a minority (read BLACK) ever actually believed the BLM fascism was anything but...

“If I made threats on Twitter against someone who wrote a pro-Black Lives Matter column, I wouldn’t be getting any leniency,’ Moroz said. “It’s been more than one person and the school isn’t doing anything about it.”

You can’t keep blaming black people for being Racist anymore than you can blame a dog for barking, that’s just the way it is.

Bet the University of Pennsylvania withdraws his acceptance. The Ivy League has no place for this kind of thinking.

The good news is that he’ll be immune to their liberal indoctrination. He’s seen behind the curtain, and he knows the wizard of liberalism is a complete phony.

I used to wonder how so many democrats in the south could possibly support a violent fear mongering racist hate group like the KKK. But with the BLM klan so many democrats support today, I no longer have to wonder.

Actually, if that happens, then the kid should get his college paid for by the school district, and his retirement paid for by UP.

If they don't, his first day of the required sensitivity training class is going to include waterboarding.

Ah, the herd sensed something wrong with this member and like all animals, blindly turned on it because the herd thought it was a threat because it was, somehow, different.

The kid learned a valuable lesson: You’re not allowed to tell the truth.

How would you feel towards white people if while growing up you were told by everybody in your community,family,friends,Church,GOVERNMENT,... That everything bad and wrong in your life is due to a bunch of white guys 250 years ago? The only reason you are a failure is because of white people.

What if I told you Society, including ALL you Precious Black Leaders has deemed you INFERIOR and the only way to “even out the score” was to give you “special”programs,rights, and preferences to overcome these deficiencies that were all caused by White People 250 years ago?

Would you be Racist against White People??

The most Vile, Bigoted, and Racist people I have ever met were Brown Skinned, Black Skinned, Or Members of Hollywood.

I understand the premise of your argument, but how do you account for millions of blacks who aren’t racist?
I’m in agreement in as far as they do stand out as being by far the most racist, those that are. Thanks for answering
