  1. Canada's prime minister did blackface 3 times

  2. Don't spare the rod. This is what happens when you do

  3. They only repeat what they are being told

  4. Those girls definitely need guidance…but come on, threats to the school?..lol..typical

  5. Young people learn from older people, so teach them with love, not your own insecurities.

  6. All the micro aggressions had that lady's life all flipped-turned upside down, until she was forced to move her kids to live with their auntie and uncle to a town called Bel aire

  7. The behavior sucks but how can the school punish them for non criminal behavior that occurred off campus???

  8. What about the black kids targeting white kids in schools?

  9. Trust me when I tell you the only place equal to the level of racism in the south is racism that takes place in the catholic church.

  10. Make them watch “White Chicks” then call BLM.

  11. Justice lol, what crime did they commit?

  12. Put them all in jail for hate crimes.

  13. Yall can't stop racism I'm sorry if that discourages you, probably in the next 100 years it might stop but for now it will not happen

  14. Better burn down a city. I think it’s Baltimore’s turn.

  15. Fin white f words, the majority of them need to go

  16. Regardless of how tasteless this is, It's not illegal to be a racist a-hole. The 1st amendment protects all the speech not just what we want it to.

  17. When I was a teen I NEVER would’ve thought of doing this, generation is lost

  18. Why is it okay to mock and hate on white people constantly and a few teenage white girls being dumb makes national news?

  19. Haha nice joke girl! It was in reverse it would be awwwwwwh¥te

  20. Kids making racist comments is definitely worse than a black man running over 64 white people at a Christmas parade

  21. If these were black kids making fun of Asian would it be an issue.how can it be an equal playing field if it’s always one sided

  22. Teenagers are stupid, self centered blobs… How can you not be aware that this isn't a good look for you?!

  23. Hahah nice joke girls. Now it was in reverse it would be awwwwhite.

  24. If the tabled were reversed and it was black students doing and saying racist things about white people, would they be getting disciplined?

  25. Black people need to educate their children how to not be hooligans and criminals "in their homes". That'd be a start.

  26. What about all the videos still on YouTube..of blacks painting their faces white & making jokes. Double standards??
