That's f'ed up!
It’s Texas, what do you expect?
There is racism in Texas? Oh, wow, how shocking! This opens up a whole new world to me !
Kids are racist. Big, hulking she-rillas yank the stringy hairs of white girls out of the skulls during beatings, and pasty kids (usually boys) play monkey sounds on their phones. Sometimes the internet racists are negroes themselves though. I'd double check whoever it was that created the webpage. It's not really something that they're taught. Kids mostly hate going to school even if they enjoy the social scene, and they want to spread their own brand of misery as easily as possible.
This is heartbreaking
This isn’t ok
Dallas Cowboy owner Jerry Jones is pictured with a 1957 mob of racist who harrassed, intimidated and traumatized students in Lil Rock Arkansas. Mr. Jones never denounced that 1957 mob action and the media complicity in not seeking further clarification from Mr. Jones. So this will continue because they the Mr. Jones' was rewarded and members of the media condone such behavior.
Fight back. Tell the white kids that they have primative, non human, Neanderthal DNA. All white Europeans have some Neanderthal DNA.
There not special. Bullying inaction goes on in every school over every little thing.
These kids should not have to deal with that if it's true but sadly often the whole story is not told. I've seen that in my town personally. Also why does it never make national news when white kids are experiencing this same thing?? I can assure you that it is much more common that white kids are bullied and picked on by minority kids. I've seen that with my family members. Nothing is ever done nor make the news!!!!
When my children were little and we would drive to their grandparents house in Lubbock for the holidays, we would spend the 12 hour drive talking to them about how they were going to hear things from Gpa and Gma that were bad and NOT to be repeated ever. That was 30+ years ago. 2 years ago my daughter had to do the same. Racism in Lubbock is rampant. Anyone who says different has their head in the sand.
Once Again,the misuse of slander&insults.i will educate the country on how these words are supposed to be used.
Sad this will never end. They have to send to another school unfortunately
Wtf Texas
Sounds to me like Lubbock needs to clean house. Time for a new school board.
This dosen't surprise me at all smh
Gregg Abbott banned abortion, AR-15 gun regulation, marriage equality, history books with Blacks, Asians, Latinos..
White Supremacy is growing in TX and are lawmakers in some county.
Republicans are destroying TX
They always start out with something that is happening society wise. But if the specific school district do not tolerate bullying. Then stick to what you oversee. Before you can tackle society ills.
Only racist bullying of white students is allowed don’t they know that
OK but why is this on the 630 national news? There's 340 million people in this country of course this is happening. Is it right? No- but shouldn't be on the national news. Media dividing people again. Do you have any idea how many 340 million people are? You just singled out 4 of them.. Good work.. What's next? a black kid pulled a white kid's hat off his head in Lees Summit Missouri? Media = division. Yes out of 486,000 schools some little punks sent some racial messages through TikTok…. Ticky tacky…
Liar
GOOD FOR THEM!!! I HOPE THEY WIN BECAUSE LISD , DR UMAR AND THE TX NAACP IN ATX AND LUBBOCK DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR ME WHEN I REPORTED AGAINST A RACIST PRINCIPAL AT ESTACADO HIGH SCHOOL. IT IS BEEN OVER DUE FOR LUBBOCK TX TO BE LOOKED AT FOR RACISM!💯💯🤐🖤
hate is the absense of love.
"Love is a light no matter in which heart it shines and hatred is darkness no matter where it may make its nest" Abdu'l Baha
And still this young man didn't pick up a gun and go to school to shoot people some of those emotionally unstable white kids are the dangerous ones they grow up to be the domestic terrorists we have in this country future maga supporters
As long as people ignore racism and injustice the worse our world will become. Prosperity is based on unity and the progress of all human beings together is an advancing civilization.
Can we just change the word RACISM to BINGO.. Then when you want to collect,you just shout BINGO !
heartbreaking that this still happens- what is wrong with people???
