It wasn't a big deal. 

it wasn't until Kelley blew it way out of proportion.... same way he blew the incident at the frat last fall.

What happened at Quinnipiac is the reason that schools actually look into the incidents instead of act now, ask questions later:

Quote

A Twitter user identifying herself as a Quinnipiac student shared the Snapchat image that forced administrators to take disciplinary measures against the student who took the picture
Social media users who saw the photo called for the expulsion of the woman in the picture.
It was later learned, however, that the student in the image was wearing a beauty facial mask and that she had no knowledge that the person taking the photograph would post it on Snapchat with a racially insensitive caption. 
The university disciplined the friend who took the photograph rather than the woman pictured, Fox 61 and the Hartford Courant are reporting

 

If the people with mob mentality would have had their way, the girl in the picture would have been expelled when she had nothing to do with the picture short of wearing a mud mask. But by then they would have had their pound of flesh and moved on, so it wouldn't have mattered.

I heard the fourth girl's last name is Black.

Well they did railroad a poor kid. So I think that it's fair. 

Definitely a move in the right direction by the legislature.

That is almost a Charlotte situation, where a black cop shoots a black thug and the black crowds were saying the thug had a book not a gun, which wasn't true.  But white folks and white cops are to blame anyway, so they were beaten and shot.

Lord have mercy on us.

It's going to be an interesting night...got my twitter, tv, and popcorn ready.

So if the brother of the guy who got shot and killed while holding a book...I mean gun...misses the fact that a black cop actually shot his brother and a white cop had nothing to do with it.............

No racism there whatsoever.

[UND1983]

Have we clarified if the second pic of the chicks with black paint on face is really from UND students?  The TMobile label on the pic throws me off.  

[Cratter]

The Herald did a huge injustice by spreading a rumor of the "BLM" photo was from UND with zero proof.

[siouxforce19]

I sense I will continue to be called a racist by opposing hockey fan bases for the foreseeable future... 

[siouxforce19]

Honestly, the emergence of social media has caused a lot of issues, or just made them more obvious than they were before Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat were things... 

I was just talking to a co-worker about how social media has made me see how mean spirited today's younger generation truly are, when you see comments from Twitter trolls telling people they're racist and they should kill themselves (as an example).... and when someone calls them on it, they don't see anything wrong with what they said.

Yeah but it got them a big headline...who needs facts when you can just whip people into a frenzy with incomplete stories and half-truths?

Now, now, Blackheart...just because the whole truth will come out LATER doesn't change the faux "outrage" than can happen INSTANTANEOUSLY when this stuff is posted!

If you wouldn't say it to someone's face, don't write it down. 

Stupid.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

And, right on cue ...

To my eyes, those look like facial mud masks again, ala the QU incident.

I'm sorry but the GF HeraldO did not explain how the second photo (mud masks) was linked to UND.  There was no F'Hawk gear being worn...are we simply to take the word of "Social Justice Reporter" guy?  I guess I would like a few more details to follow up the big headline.

Details......meaning you want facts?  Won't happen. This crap sells papers and promotes the racial divide agenda that is being rammed down the throats of our society from the very top on down.

Anyone who doesn't fully examine anything Shaun King writes or says is doing it wrong. He is a notorious liar and is known to make up anything to fit his agenda.

[Siouxperfan7]

The 3 girls with the mud masks just need to say that they identify as being African American and this was a way of expressing that.

How does one become a social justice reporter anyway?

By making a lot of noise on Twitter without the facts.

I see what you did there, whether intentionally or not. That would sure make it tough for Mr. King to criticize them given his background.

Did you notice how quickly the GF Herald jumped on the this:

Just keep on trotting out the same old tired lie and people will believe it...

All that but the herald missed the fact that the siouxper drunk t shirts people were not even UND students. Add in the fact that springfest is not a UND sanctioned event. Those pesky facts.

Those kids never wore the shirts to Springfest either.
