6 Girls in AZ commit Internet Suicide (T shirt spells N Word) (1 Viewer)

If they'd have actually spelled out, "N*Word"...would the vitriol and social backlash be the same?

Because it is still my contention that this is all they did...they didn't actually spell the epithet...they substituted.

They didn't actually spell anything...for that matter.
Ok

Anyone dumb enough to do this shouldn't be using up scholarship dollars. The money would be better used elsewhere.
:rolleyes:
So if you were a taxpayer (if it was a state school) or a private donor, you'd be cool with your $$$ paying for these girls' educations? I know I wouldn't.

Not saying they need their lives ruined, but scholarships are a privilege. In my opinion, anyone who does something like this (either out of malice or stupidity) doesn't deserve that privilege. Plenty of good kids who get through high school without making themselves into a national embarrassment take out loans to get through college. These 6 dopes can do the same.
What other expressions of free speech should we pull scholarship offers for? Is there a list?
Free speech doesn't mean "no consequences".
Public schools shouldn't be pulling scholarships based on protected free speech. Private schools are a different matter.

Oh fun, another mob justice thing.

It's one thing if people that contact colleges, break into computers, and whatever else they do to ruin lives do this kind of thing to actually teach a lesson to people who need one, but that's not it at all. People just want a target that is socially acceptable to do horrible things to, because they enjoy it.
Pretty much

I don't believe tax money goes to scholarships. Endowments are. I could be wrong.
