It looks like the University of North Dakota is going to kick some students out after pictures surfaced online of them posting themselves in blackface. The caption referred to the incident as "Black Lives Matter".
The most recent image, which went viral shows four women wearing black facial masks.
The president of the UND said basically saying that this is inexcusable.
"It is abundantly clear that we have much work to do at the University of North Dakota in educating our students and the entire University community on issues related to diversity, inclusion, and respect of others.....
Pretty stupid.
"...I have been disappointed to learn that we have people in our university community who don't know that the kind of behavior and messaging demonstrated in these two photos is not OK, and that, in fact, it is inexcusable."
Another picture that circulated was one of the women saying that it "feels good to finally be a Nigga".
The student who posted on social media the offensive images is Etonde Maloke. She was very upset over this. She saying the person they had been referencing was her friend. Apparently the people in the picture used the woman’s own phone to take and post the photo, to her Snapchat story.
“My friend was not aware that they had done this and didn’t even realize they had put this on her [S]napchat story until another friend of ours pointed it out,” Maloke’s post reads.
UND’s student body is primarily white – 78 percent, the university’s race and ethnicity data shows. That’s about in line with the U.S. population, according to Census figures.
And 2.45 percent of students says they’re black/non-Hispanic Americans, with another 2.95 percent listing themselves as two or more races.
In addition, 6 percent of students consider themselves “non-resident or alien.”
Terrorist attacks a Washington state mall. Four people lost their lives to a senseless mass shooting.
Like clockwork, another senseless mass shooting in the U.S.
As expected, Congress will offer their prayers but no action on these mass shootings. They will say that any gun control laws will infringe on the rights of the lawful abiding citizens. The terrorist is likely able to purchase a firearm without a background check. Washington is an open carry state. You can carry a firearm in the public without a permit. You can carry a firearm in your vehicle if you have a permit.
And like that, we're going to hear the talk about the state's laws are easy for gun owners.
It's almost like we're becoming numb to these events. And we're expecting these things to continue even when President Barack Obama leaves the White House.
Conservatives will rehash those ridiculous hypotheticals about how arming everyone could stop a threat. You will hear the usual word vomit about the terrorist being either a liberal, Democrat, or an Obama (Clinton) supporter. You will hear "It's not the time to politicize" these events.
Fresh from the two police encounters and the terrorist planting bombs in New York, we head to Washington state to cover a mass shooting.
There was a mass shooting in Tennessee but it was ignored by the junk food media. It was focused on the unrest in Charlotte, NC.
Breaking, there was a mass shooting in the city of Burlington, Washington. There were four people killed and numerous others injured at the Cascade Mall.
The authorities are looking for a terrorist who managed to take four lives for no god damn reason.
President Barack Obama, Democratic Governor Jay Inslee, Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) and Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-WA) were notified of this tragedy tonight.
The terrorist was spotted near Interstate 5.
The Washington State Patrol said the shooter appears to be a Hispanic man wearing grey. That's not confirmed.
In the wake of a mass shooting in Washington State, who takes the blame in this senseless tragedy?
Emergency medics have entered the mall escorted by police.
"It's unclear where the shooting occurred", said Sgt. Mark Francis of the state police.
Mall shut down after terrorist killed four innocent shoppers or workers.
Expect Donald Trump to exploit this. He will say that the terrorist could be an illegal immigrant. He could use this as a motivation to scare up some votes.
There's APB for the suspect. And there's also a need to get tips passed along to the law.
Local junk food agitators report that a person identifying as the shooter has called into the police, and crisis negotiators are being activated
The shooting happened around the Macy's store at 7pm (PST).
I am done sending my condolences to the families of the victims. I want Congress to do something about mass shootings. I want Congress to do something about police brutality against people of color. I want police reform passed by Congress. The Republican-controlled Congress is inept. They rather waste your taxpayer dollars on fighting the first term of a second term Barack Obama. They nominated a billionaire narcissist who has an unpredictable way of handling crisises. The Republican Party of today is the Democrats of yesterday. The party is full of White, old, ignorant, stubborn and stupid people. They rather cling to their guns, religion and disdain for others. They will refuse to concede to the concerns of the rest of the world.
It's unfortunate that lives are lost to firearms. The Republicans and their conservative allies will continue to push for genocide. They want Whites to poison themselves with heroin. They want pregnant women to give birth to Zika-born children. They want Blacks to kill each other or give police officers justification for gun violence. They rather be in the legs or bedroom of women and gay people.
They don't want to tax the rich. They want to punish the poor and needy. They want to be the party of the future when their policies are stuck in the 20th Century.
Name one good Republican president that's been good for the rest of the world.
The blame game series continues as developments follow.
BE WARNED THE VIDEOS CONTAIN DISTURBING AND VIOLENT IMAGES
TAKE DISCRETION IN VIEWING THIS.
Looks like the victim of a fatal police shooting had enough of the delay. They released the encounter filmed from the victim's wife. This video went viral.
The wife of Keith Lamont Scott recorded the final moments of her husband's life. He was shot and killed by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg metro police after they claimed he refuse an order to drop a gun.
Keith Scott's wife yells at the cops that he has no gun on him.
The wife screams at the officers telling them that he didn't have a gun. He had a TV guide. The video lasted 2 minutes and 12 seconds show the officer pointing at Keith's direction.
"Don't shot him, he has no weapon," said Rakeyia Scott. She tells the officers he has a traumatic brain injury and then assures them, "He's not gonna do anything, he just took his medicine."
Rakeyia yells at Keith saying "Keith, don't you do it!" It's not clear if she was telling not exit the vehicle.
Police then fired on him. He would be on the ground bleeding and the cops would cuff him.
"Did you shoot him?" Rakeyia says while recording the encounter. "He better live. He didn't do nothing to them."
The cops were marked with their bulletproof vest and they had the plain clothes. Now there's a portion of the video where an object was dropped on the ground. Some are claiming its a gun.
Others claim it's a glove.
Nonetheless the calls are growing for the law to release the body camera and dash camera footage.
The family demands the officers involved to be held accountable for Keith's death.
The chief of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg metro police Kerr Putney said that he's not ignoring the cell phone footage but he's determined to get to bottom of this tragedy.
The lawyer for the family express that the police are trying the public's patience.
"The family is still hopeful that the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department and the city of Charlotte will release all available video of the incident to the public so that people can draw their own conclusions about Keith's death,"
More developments are on the way. Another night of unrest continues in the city.
The mayor issued a mandatory curfew for the city from 12am to 6am. The Republican governor Pat McCrory activated the national guard to restore order.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) endorses Donald Trump for president.
The failed Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz endorses Donald Trump for president. The so-called constitutionally conservative senator from Texas made a shocking announcement on the race for the White House. He came fresh off ridicule when he embarrassed himself at the Republican National Convention.
He put aside his feud with Trump to give his blessings to the billionaire after pressure from Reince Priebus warned him to get in line or lose your funds for reelection.
Cruz once called Trump the worst candidate to run against Hillary Clinton.
Trump permanently labeled Cruz, "Lyin' Ted" and it's stuck to him like glue. The two fought fiercely throughout the early primaries. Cruz even tried a "hail Mary" pass by picking Carly Fiorina, another failed presidential candidate as his running mate.
When he lost badly in Indiana, he ended the race and took a hardline stance against Trump. He vowed to oppose a Trump presidency.
Priebus was pressured by conservative agitators to do something about the #NEVERTRUMP movement. He warned Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE), Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and Republican governors to get in line or lose support.
Cruz said that he'll vote for Trump.
"Our country is in crisis. Hillary Clinton is manifestly unfit to be president, and her policies would harm millions of Americans. And Donald Trump is the only thing standing in her way. A year ago, I pledge to endorse the Republican nominee, and I am honoring that commitment. And if you don't want to see a Hillary Clinton, I encourage you to vote for him."
Trump said that the endorsement was a honor.
"I am greatly honored by the endorsement of Senator Cruz," said Trump said. "We have fought the battle and he was a tough and brilliant opponent."
Tyre King was fatally shot by Columbus police after they chased him for an alleged robbery.
The need for accountability. The police need to start releasing body and dash camera footage. The Black community demands this in the wake of the fatal encounter of Keith Lamont Scott.
Cop in the freezer for shooting teen.
Over in Columbus, protesters calls for transparency are growing. The evidence shows that Tyre King was fatally shot in the back three to five times. According to the law, he was pulling the gun from his waistband.
He was shot and killed Columbus Police after they suspected him of being involved in an armed robbery. The 13 year old boy was fatally shot. He was holding a toy gun and the law claims that the gun looked realistic.
The officer Bryan Mason is in the freezer pending a state and federal investigation.
Mason was cleared of wrongdoing after he had fatally shot a man who held another person at gunpoint. He also had two non-fatal encounters. He also shot a dog after the animal bit an officer.
The public file shows that Mason had high marks on his performance.
Tyre will be buried on Saturday.
The city of Columbus plans to outfit its officers in the traffic division with cameras before the end of the year. It might take up to three years to get at least 1,400 officers on the camera says the Columbus Dispatch.
Rep. Robert Pittenger (R-NC) is walking back his comments about the unrest in Charlotte. The lawmaker represents the city and the suburban south. He said these comments on a foreign news channel. He insulted 1/3 of his constituents yesterday on the BBC.
When asked about the unrest in the city, Pittenger basically said that the protesters "hate white people because white people are successful and they're not."
Newsflash: There are White people involved in the protest.
This the sixth fatal shooting by the police. The police refuse to release the body camera and dash camera footage for fears it may spark more violent protests.
The family of Keith Lamont Scott saw the video. They demand the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police release the full encounter. They continue to stand firm that Keith didn't have a firearm on him.
Pittenger with Donald Trump.
The law said that a firearm was retrieved on the scene. According to the law, they were serving an arrest warrant to another figure when they stumbled across him.
The Republican Party is desperately trying to win over non White votes. Donald Trump boasts he is winning with Black, Hispanic and the youth vote. Will this set him back?
This is the deplorable behavior of the Republican Party. This is how Republicans think of President Barack Obama and Black America.
The governor Pat McCrory ordered the National Guard to Charlotte.
Republican chairwoman fired out the cannon after she said a racially ignorant comment.
You know what pisses me off! It's this conservative concern trolling about Black America ignoring intraracial violence. Like they care about our lives!
President Barack Obama and Black leaders have talked constantly about violence in America. He has passionately express concerns about how guns are easily accessible to young people. He said that Congress refuses to do something about gun violence.
Somehow they have this selective memory.
We don't ignore "Black on Black violence".
We don't ignore the racism in the United States.
I don't blame President Barack Obama for racism. Racism existed before he even got into the office.
It's a pathetic cop-out.
A woman working for the Donald Trump campaign resigns from her post after she was caught on tape saying that racism never existed. She blamed President Barack Obama for racism in the United States.
The Mahoning County chair for the Trump campaign Kathy Miller said there was no racism until Barack Obama became the president. She called #BlackLivesMatter "a stupid waste of time".
Rudy, you need to find a nice place to rest your bald head.
By noon today, she was forced to resign and gav up her elector status. She was a participant in the Electoral College. Ohio being a crucial swing state for candidates will win a huge win.
"I don't think there was any racism until Obama got elected," Miller said to The Guardian.
Miller's comment were put online yesterday and went viral today.
Her comment got worse.
"If you're Black and you haven't been successful in the last 50 years, it's your own fault. You've had every opportunity, it was given to you. You've had the same schools everybody else went to. You had benfits to go to college that White kids didn't have. You had all the advantages and didn't take advantage of it. It's not our fault certainly," she said.
In the wake of the unrest in Charlotte, you have assholes appearing on television trying to give their two cents into a matter they have no business in.
Washed up politician, Mr. 9/11 himself, Rudy Giuliani once again opens his mouth and inserts his foot in. He appears on the most annoying conservative agitator's right wing carnival to denounce Black Lives Matter. He says if he was still the mayor and there were protesters acting out, he would lock them up and send them to Riker's Island.
This is the mugshot of the Tulsa cop who killed an unarmed man. They're so determined to smear, slander, besmirch the name of a Black man who was fatally shot by this cop's reckless call. She turned her ass over to authorities overnight. She was released on a $55,000 out of a $500,000 get out free card.
A man with his hands in the air, mind you being shot while walking towards his car.
Tulsa Police officer Betty Shelby is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. She was the officer who is facing manslaughter charges in the first degree. That charge could put her in the iron college from four years to LIFE.
The mugshot will be shown soon. But in the meantime, we'll see how this play out. Of course don't hold your breathe for a conviction. After all, many officers usually get off a murder charge. The indictment alone isn't enough.
The only way the public will be satisfied is the cop being indicted for the charges.
District Attorney Stephen Kunzweiler announced today that this officer will face a judge.
Her attorney and the police union will speak on this latest development in the case.
Shelby's attorney said that she opened fire because she feared that Terence was grabbing a weapon.
Yeah right. She was surrounded by at least five officers. Tulsa Police failed to find a weapon on him.
The junk food media reported that the Shelby had two bad marks on her record as a Tulsa Police officer.
Terence Crutcher was gunned down by a Tulsa cop who made a reckless call.
The suspect's family said that she's feeling remorse and sympathy for the family. The suspect's husband was a part of the police helicopter unit. It's revealed that one of the pilots of the helicopter said that "he was a bad dude, probably on something." The name of the pilot isn't revealed yet.
When Sean "Softball" Hannity tried to claim that Terence Crutcher was wanted for numerous charges, the local agitator shut that shit down. The most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media had this Black America town hall in Cleveland this week. This is a flop. Donald Trump spoke to a mostly White audience. Trump raised eyebrows when he said he endorses a national stop-and-frisk policy.
The softball tried to lump all of Black America's problems on Barack Obama, the first Black president. He tries and fails so miserably it's laughable.
Now he's back to his old tricks again. He tried to smear Terence by saying that he "had a long criminal history and appeared to be under the influence."
The junk food media trying to paint this officer as a "good guy".
The softball would say to a local agitator if Terence had any warrants for his arrest.
Russell Mills, a local agitator from KRMG-TV said that he has no evidence of Terence being a wanted criminal.
"Well I read that there was numerous warrants out for his arrest including one assault on an officer and drug trafficking," said the softball.
Well I'll tell you I looked up his history and I'm not seeing a lot of criminal history. We have something called the OSCN, the Oklahoma Supreme Court Network. I was able to find a protective order from 12 years ago that was dismissed. I found a couple of financial things. There's no violent criminal history for Mr. Crutcher that I've been able to uncover."
The softball would keep pressing on saying that these reports about no criminal history being false.
"Are those reports incorrect?" Hannity continued.
"As far as I know they are. I have not seen any reporting on any warrants for Mr. Crutcher and I certainly haven't uncovered any myself," Mills told the softball.
"There has been some misinformation floated," Mills said to knock down the softball's attempt to cast a dead victim as a criminal thug.
"He did not have any warrants. He had not done anything wrong. He had a malfunctioning vehicle, and he should have been treated accordingly," Crutcher family attorney Melvin Hall told the Chicago Tribune this week. The paper reported, however, that Crutcher did serve four years in prison from 2007 to 2011 on a Tulsa County drug-trafficking conviction.
Nonetheless, this divisive agitator is once again playing this game of blaming the victim for his own death. He's been on this kick of attacking President Barack Obama for the unrest in America.
The most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media's town hall was postponed. He solely focused on the unrest in Charlotte. He spent a majority of the time finding ways to blame President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the unrest.
The shootings of Keith Scott and Terence Crutcher have put police brutality, race relations and gun control back into the limelight. Just last weekend, we had terrorist attacks in Minnesota, New Jersey and New York.
Sean "Softball" Hannity has been in the forefront of trying to make these controversies a political opportunity for Donald Trump.
At this town hall in Cleveland, Trump and the softball were invited to a Black church. Darrell Scott invited these two to talk about the issues facing Black America.
This town hall was an embarrassment. Most in attendance were White people.
Trump calls for a national stop-and-frisk policy. He believes that this will stop Black on Black crime and was a political dog whistle for White extremists.
At the New Spirit Revival Center, a Cleveland Heights church whose pastor is an ardent Trump supporter, Trump and running mate Mike Pence held a forum on “African American Concerns.”
Taking the stage after boxing promoter Don King, Trump proceeded to point out all of his black friends in attendance (including King, New Spirit Revival Center’s Pastor Darrell Scott, and one-time Republican rival Ben Carson), comment on his (supposedly) rising poll numbers with African-American voters, and once again touch on the plight of America’s inner cities by mentioning the violence in places like Chicago and recent shootings in Tulsa and Charlotte.
“I talked about the crime, I talked about the lack of education, the bad schools, and I talked about jobs — the jobs are just so bad,” Trump told his black audience. “And I said it three or four, five times, and then one day I said, ‘What do you have to lose? I mean, what do you have to lose? I’m gonna fix it. What do you have to lose?”
This might seem like a pretty convincing argument for some African-Americans that are on the fence ahead of the November election. However, images and videos that poured out of the event appeared to show that Trump was addressing a largely white crowd at this historically black church.
It's about to get wavy in here! The former DipSet/Byrd Gang capo Max B might be able to cop a plea.
The hip-hop community is hungry for Max B. He's about to be released from the iron college after a 2009 conviction. He was sent up the creek for conspiracy and murder charges. He copped a pleas and he will be released from the iron college in a few years. He was about to get 3 quarters in the bars.
Escaping a 75 year bid is wavy!
Max B thanks his supporters and of course French Montana.
French Montana is an artist signed to Bad Boy and Maybach Music Group. He's the founder of Coke Boys Music. Montana promises to sign Max B to the label once he comes out.
"I would like to take the time to humbly express my gratitude to the Bergen County Courts. The Honorable James J. Guida, and Mr. Grewal of the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office for looking into my Post-Conviction Relief. This proceeding was not a question of my guilt or innocence, but about the bad advice, poor judgement, and overall ineffectiveness of my trial attorney. I would also like to thank my legal team at The Law Offices of Bruno & Ferraro; my wonderful attorneys John Bruno, John Bruno, Jr., John Lotorocca and Linda Peterson did an outstanding on my case and fighting for me.
I wanna thank The Breakfast Club, Charlamagne Tha God, DJ Envy and Angela Yee. I wanna give a special thanks to my friend and partner Frank Babar and Phase One Network, William Cosgrove, Corey Whitaker and The Playbook Agency. Without the support of Phase One team, I wouldn't have made it this far. I want to thank my boy Masar, Alpac, and my brother from another mother, French Montana, aka Mac with The Cheese.---I love you bro! Wave Gods till we die!!!! To all my fans that been holding it down for me all these years, still banging my music and still keeping it wavy. I love you all and Stay Wavy. Last, but certainly not least, my lovely and wonderful mother Mamveli, I love you!"
Max B.
The Harlem rapper known as Charly Wingate could be out of the iron college in 2025.
He had collaborated with Cam'Ron and Jim Jones, the founders of the Diplomats (Dip-Set). He also is known as the father of the "Wavy".
Max B made news earlier when Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa reignited their feud over the West's album Waves.
"Please don't take the Wave," said Wiz Khalifa on social media. He believes Max B deserves the right to be crowned the King of the Wave. Yeezy changed the album to The Life of Pablo.
The world is waiting on Max B, the king of the wave.
The shiny coin theory. When the junk food media covers the story, it drives the emotions, the partisan bickering and the politicians licking their chops hoping these incidents benefit them in an election.
The junk food media leaves New York/New Jersey. They head over to Charlotte to cover the unrest.
The unrest started after allegations of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Metro Police shooting Keith Lamont Scott. Some of the residents believe that the police murdered an innocent man. The police said that he was strapped to the tee and he failed to obey an order.
This comes a few days after a Tulsa officer shot and killed Terence Crutcher.
Regardless, the tensions were high and it's been brewing for a long time.
If you're a Black man, a woman who is pregnant, a worshiping Muslim, a child of an immigrant or refugee, you're really starting to see the country you're a part of come apart at the seams.
Barack Obama's final year as president has been contiguous. Republicans opposed him every step of the way.
The junk food media is responsible for the tension. Agitators on the cable networks have promoted this narrative that cops aren't the bad guys. They push the blame on the president, Hillary Clinton, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson for the uprising. And the agitators on the right have constantly blamed him for flaming racial tensions.
There was a person who was severely injured in this event.
One person was shot dead on Wednesday in a second night of unrest in Charlotte, North Carolina, officials said, as riot police fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse unruly protesters after the fatal police shooting of a black man.
Charlotte Police Chief Kerr Putney confirmed that a person shot during the protest had died but did not identify the individual or the origin of the gunfire.
However, city officials said in a Twitter message that the fatal gunshot was fired by one civilian at another, not by police. A police officer was also being treated for injuries suffered during the protests, the city said.
Putney told Fox News: "We’re trying to disperse the crowd. We’ve been very patient, but now they’ve become very aggressive, throwing bottles and so forth, at my officers, so it’s time for us now to restore order."
"We are tired of people, especially police, killing our black men," Blanche Penn, a longtime community activist, said at Wednesday evening's rally, where the mood had begun as resolute but peaceful. "Charlotte has always been quiet. But now it's time to be loud."
Sixteen officers were injured late on Tuesday and early Wednesday as police in riot gear clashed with demonstrators who hurled stones, set fires and briefly blocked an interstate highway.
Tuesday's disturbances in Charlotte unfolded as demonstrators in Tulsa, Oklahoma, demanded the arrest of a police officer seen in a video last week fatally shooting an unarmed black man who had his hands in clear view at the time.
The deaths were the latest incidents to raise questions of racial bias in U.S. law enforcement, and they stoked a national debate on policing ahead of the presidential election in November. President Barack Obama spoke by telephone on Wednesday with the mayors of Charlotte and Tulsa, a White House official said.
Papa Bush said he might just vote for Hilary Clinton.
The 41st President of the United States says that every time he sees Donald Trump on the television, he wants to throw the shoe at the TV. Now it's rumored that Papa Bush is going to vote for Hillary Clinton.
George H.W. Bush said privately Republicans are total idiots. He believes that Trump will be extremely reckless. The comments came during a receiving line for board members of the bipartisan Points of Light Foundation when Bush was speaking to Kathleen Hartington Kennedy Townsend, Robert F. Kennedy's daughter and the former Maryland lieutenant governor. There were roughly 40 people in the room, and it's not clear how many people heard him, though multiple sources did.
The Republican former president's embrace of the Democratic nominee represents a dramatic new chapter in the complicated three-decade-old relationship between the two most prominent families in American politics.
Trump's campaign manager KellyAnne Conway was none too happy about this. She said that "age is a factor".
"It is ironic that he would vote for the wife of the man who knocked him out the race," she said on CNN's Erin Burnett. "But look, this was a bruising primary.... so I know there are a lot of hurt feelings."
It's reported that former First Lady Laura Bush could be endorsing Hillary Clinton soon.
