Alabama High School Students Use Racial Slurs on Video

[Des-Bal]

I thought there were no racists in alabam, or in high schools. Thank god for this very important news story clearing the scales from my eyes.

[Swiftika]

One would think this type of behavior would be seen in an older generation not in high school students.

Why?

[Paddy O Fernature]

Holy fucking shit, have we seriously reached the level where this kind of bullshit is news worthy?

*Ahem*

Water is wet, hippies smell like hemp, and high school kids will be edgy. News at 11.

Oh noooo it’s that time of the month again.

[Loben]

And? Are you so sheltered that high school students being assholes is newsworthy to you?

The New York Post thought it was newsworthy and I find you calling me sheltered insulting. I am in no way sheltered

(X) considering your holier then thou attitude on a multitude of topics...

I dont think this means that society in a larger scale is more racist/bigoted etc, this video just shows a bunch of drunk, probably high moron students who themselves could be racist/bigoted twats when not drunk/high.

I dont think its too reflective on wider society, or all students at that school or anything.

Dont think its that newsworthy either to be honest, just a bunch of fucking moron students.

Oh I don't know. Finding the true nature of "Christians" isn't interesting?

Well yeah. If we don't have threads like this how will we know all about the ongoing oppression of the white male who can't call a spade a spade any more?

[Dogmeat]

I'm shocked. Shocked!

It's Alabama, this comes as no surprise. The state of "Roll Tide" is also a state known to largely turn a blind eye to, if not actively condone, overt displays of hatred.

Goes to show, I guess.

Sorry. Going back to the topic - what makes this a newsworthy event for you - Lumen? And in your opinion, how newsworthy should it be?

The fact that high school students have such bigoted views.

“Adolescent males actually show a temporary decline, between ages 13 and 16, in…affective empathy, or the ability to recognize and respond to others' feelings.”

Most of us did stupid shit in high school because of that. Granted, it wasn't racist shit in most cases, but it was still stupid shit. Take away empathy, add edginess to any former rebel state "lucky enough" to have Sherman marching through, spice it up with names like "Rebels" while adding piss poor economic development, and you have a recipe for teens doing this shit.

The New York Post doesn’t determine what’s newsworthy

I didn’t call you sheltered, I asked if you were sheltered.

Although if someone was insulted by being called sheltered, odds are that they are sheltered

I will have you know there was intolerance and bigotry by some students in my schooling but nothing like the level seen in this video.

[Xmara]

They should be suspended. There is no question that what they were doing is highly offensive.

Though I don’t think their identities should be disclosed nor do I think they should be doxxed.

The activity apparently took place this past weekend at a private residence. Although it was not part of any school function... White Alabama high school students were caught using racist and anti-Semitic slurs...

“Without the Holocaust, what would the world be like?” says one boy in the video, which included students from both Hoover and Spain Park high schools, located in a suburb south of Birmingham, AL.com reported. “We would have white people still,” a girl responds. “All the n—-rs would not be here,” another teen chimes in. “F–k n—ers, f–k Jews,” another teen says. “Jews are fine because they’re white,” the girl adds. “We just need the n—-rs gone.” The teens also referred to racially mixed people as “mixed Oreos” and talked about putting minorities in concentration camps or waiting until they “die off.”

“Earlier today a video was circulated on social media that depicted high school kids hanging out and saying some really horrible things. One of the kids you can hear talking is my daughter. We believe, that in the moment she acted completely outside her character and certainly outside the morals and principles that we worked hard to instill in her throughout her lifetime,” Gordon Stewart wrote on the Hoover Toyota Facebook page. “Our family, Mackenzie included, blatantly reject all forms of racism or bigotry and the sentiments from the video do not accurately reflect her or her true feelings. This experience has proven to be a crucial lesson in her maturity and she directly expresses her heartfelt apologies for her insensitivities,” he wrote.

I'm curious, where is there an anti-semitic slur? Considering that they think that if there was no Holocaust, there wouldn't be black people in America, it seems like their education system is the real failure here. One guy, who might've been trolling, talked about concentration camps, and even that was rejected by the girl. She doesn't use the word "or" as "interpreted" by the NY Post, she uses the word "no" and then says "we have to wait until they die off" - so yeah, they're acting like racist idiots, but they're not, with the exception of that one moron, threatening violence. For shit stupid teens do, this was mild.

The parents of the girl instantly took control of the situation, and seem to be handling it. Since this video occurred in a home, rather than on public property, it's more intense. The most "antisemitic" thing said was "fuck the Jews" - if only we had a Congresswoman tweeting "It's all about the Benjamins" - oh wait, we did. Not lobbyists, not money, not AIPAC, nope, Benjamins - which one would only say if they were intended to offend the Jews. That was a heck of a lot more offensive than "fuck Jews" and that was coming from a Congresswoman, and yet, I didn't hear you be offended by that. Odd.

Legit though if I had been doing this kind of stuff in high school my parents would have whooped my ass so badly everyone on nationstates would feel it.

A sandal to the arse is seriously underrated as Pavlovian conditioning.

You’re just asking for us to meme this at this point.

Would've probably been very effective in this situation as well.
