Black Mizzou football players go on strike

There are a lot more campuses outside the Ivy League.

 

Skull and Bones

 

In an unrelated matter, Missouri's Student Bar Association has turned itself into the social media police for law students. What is in the water in CoMo?

This video never gets old

Dear Mizzou, the only reason anyone gives a shit about your school is because of its journalism program. Telling a student photographer not to take pictures at a public forum in the middle of campus is about the dumbest thing you could have done.

 

Which Mizzou president had a worse time with race relations, Wolfe or Elson Floyd?

 

I think this is the first time I've ever agreed with anything that Elie Mystal has written. That's how screwed up things apparently are in Missouri.

I'm sure FIRE will have a field day with this.

 

My favorite line: Who do you think you are, Jar-Jar Binks? Waiving your hand in the air and saying something doesn’t make it so.

Much like twirling, you are always waiving, waiving, waiving ...

 

Lost in the noise is another interesting development. The chancellor also resigned. So they took down both the system president and the campus head. That's pretty incredible.

The photog sure as hell had a lot more patience and civility than I would have been able to muster there.

 

He wears a bow tie. You couldn't have found a more stereotypical Chancellor in Central Casting.

Is it wrong that I wanted to reach through the screen and take a nightstick to the skull of the mewling yenta in the sunglasses? And then have a group "introduction to tasing" class with the rest of them?
These people set up tents in the middle of campus. They don't get to say, at that point, that they want to be left alone or that they don't want attention when it's pretty damn obvious that that's exactly what they want. It's the whole point of protesting, you dipshits.

The photographer, especially for being a student, deserves high praise for keeping his cool. Being alone in the middle of an angry, stupid mob is not an enviable place to be.
