Weeks after 18-year-old Barnard College student Tessa Majors was stabbed to death in a Manhattan park, faculty and staff are being targeted with "viciously racist" robocalls from a white supremacist group.

According to a statement from Columbia University, the calls were received by a large number of Barnard faculty and staff and a smaller number of Columbia staff.

Mayor Bill de Blasio ✔ @NYCMayor White supremacists are morally bankrupt and these robocalls in the wake of an unspeakable tragedy are disgusting.

The Barnard and Columbia community rejects hate — and so does New York City


On the whole Mayor Bill I would rather receive a racist robocall than be stabbed to death. I think you are ignoring the big crime here.

Except for the people that they hate, of course.

Lets see what the calls say. Then let everyone decide for herself if they are “Vicious”

Or even racist.

We all know exactly how this is going to play out.

Big investigation, probably involving more resources than the murder investigation itself. They’ll find it was not actually white people behind the racist calls, but one if their own, and the story will be buried on page 36 (if at all).

I would guess, actually a little stronger than that, that calls are phony and from hard core leftists.

Fake hate crime perpetrators have now embraced technology. We’ll never hear the report concluding that caller ID spoof software was used.

Or mebbe Mayor Big Bird can get Crowdstrike to do the investigation (in which case, it was the Rooskies).

The robocalls are “morally bankrupt” but the stabbing death is an “unspeakable tragedy”, kind of like an earthquake or fire. Why not call the youth “morally bankrupt” or would that be too judgmental and insensitive ?

The article does not quote from any calls or name any group making them. Since these snowflakes are so “woke” they think making an OK sign is racist, I need more evidence than this to make a judgment as to whether this is real or a hoax.

Details of the message or the group it came from were not disclosed by either school.

Why not? Curious minds want to know.

“Weeks after 18-year-old Barnard College student Tessa Majors was stabbed to death in a Manhattan park”

White young college girl stabbed to death in a park by a gang of black youths. That is not “Viciously Racist”?

Some “hate crimes” are more equal than others.
