they are saying that starting 2009, diversity education will be required.motherfuckers, people aren't stupid, whoever made the goddamn noose knows what he did, it's not like if he took diversity classes he would be any different.

thing is that they have to show that paying a director for diversity relations/COD (chief of diversity) is worth it. that means forcing people to do things or take classes that will cause people to become indifferent to the word "diversity".people whose sole job is diversity education have sweet jobs where they don't have to do anything important.it's amazing.

once i leave, they can burn it down if they want to...
11/19/2007 12:26:54 PM
do they really think that it will make a difference? People do not like to be forced to take classes like that. It's not like its going to change anything. We all know about diversity.they are making a big deal out of nothing and if the person did this for attention or to stir trouble, they are getting what they wanted. and the fact that today's technician article called it "an act of terrorism"

what happened? did we piss off another black guy?
11/19/2007 12:29:35 PM
every black guy and their mama is pissed off about this. I'm tired of seeing it in the paper, but since we have no real news...
11/19/2007 12:32:20 PM
good thing i am graduating this semester...another required class not relevant to your major is just dumb. Teach that crap in high school.

this is why black people shouldnt have the right to oxygen
11/19/2007 12:44:25 PM
fuck this bullshit.How many white people throughout history have been hung due to various crimes. I'd say probably 10 times as many black people if not more.they need to shut this stupid fucking racism shit up\I'm also sick of black people who fuckin bitch and complain that every single action one does that barely alludes to racism is like a paramount world-changing event.[Edited on November 19, 2007 at 12:49 PM.

If they wouldn't make such a big fucking deal out of every little thing, this wouldn't be an issue today. And the NAACP makes it 10x worse by bitching and moaning about everything.[Edited on November 19, 2007 at 12:53 PM. Reason : ]

i can appreciate their sentiments, i really can. but at what point in life do you just say "you know what, yes that happened, but i'm going to ignore that shit and live my OWN life"and yea, act of terrorism, my god that pissed me off. this is why 1st amendment rights are so important, because when you're able to start calling anything treasonous, or terrorism you start being able to punish/imprison anyone you want for anything you deem to fall in those categories.i'll say this too, i really really hope that as many black people hate the naacp as white people, because that organization is fucking radical as hell

If they want to see racism, they will find racism. Same thing with sexism, or any other form of discrimination. There have been studies on this shit. Perceived levels of discrimination have more to do with your psychological well-being than any objective measurement of discrimination.Or, in short, if you think they're out to get you, it'll make you more paranoid than when you find out they really are out to get you.

it'll have about the same effect as the class you take for driving.all those hours about driving safety and we still have thousands of collisions and deaths a year

oh god,"it's not just a noose, it's a symbol of oppression and death"so is a gun, or knife, or guillotine, or cannon, or battleship, or m1 tank, or sword, or rat

I like how no one gets pissed when we hang a Tarheel/ram/goat in a rope noose at a football game. Moreover, on ESPN this past Saturday, they showed a Michigan fan holding a Buckeye in a rope noose at the game in the stadium. If a noose is a noose, how come these nooses didn't stir as much trouble up as a toilet paper noose without anything hanging in it nor it hanging from anything else in a bathroom limited only to employees with access?
11/19/2007 1:31:12 PM
I think it's because of the nooses' intended use. It isn't the blacks who made "the noose" a symbol of hatred towards them, it was some whites. Hanging a noose was meant to send a message. Trust me, if it was up to blacks.... I'm sure they would have done away with the whole noose/hanging/slavery part of their history.
11/19/2007 1:34:21 PM
i don't see how an investigation is going to get them anywhere unless they can find someone who's willing to snitch on the culprit. It doesnt seem like they have any real evidence to go by to find whoever did this.
