"you black's" "Socialistic" The improper use of the possessive isn't confined to Mississippi slow learners, but it makes the posts even more ridiculous.

Glad I live in Florida, I can see where the backroads ************ hangout, in Mississippi. I considered Romney until he picked Ryan, voted for the President this time. Obama has no magic wand, what human could have undone what the horrendous disaster known as George W. Bush left, in four years? The 9/11 dead, the Katrina dead**, the dead from Bush's War; they will never live again, and they deserve more than the mangled syntax of ignorant hardcore right wingers.

*My father's term, he served in WWII, at age 17, Korea AND Vietnam while Reagan/Bush II wined & dined the wars away, safely in the US. GHWB, DOLE & MCCAIN actually SERVED, which is why today's Pubbies loved the DODGERS, its so much more COMFORTABLE. Question: Which of the three gave up an EARNED exemption from the draft:

Bush
Cheney
Clinton

CLINTON, when he protested the war. Bush II & Cheney were never eligible for the draft. NOT ONCE. Romney went to FRANCE, the former enemy of the rabid right, NOW the place all good Americans should sit out wars.

My problem isn't with Romney putting his duties to his church first; LDS missionaries live like paupers. Its SOME of Romney's supporters that killed his campaign.

*Baby Bush ignored ACE requests for the TWENTY YEAR SELA levee restoration project, he saved about 500 million by gutting the budget, at a cost of 100+ BILLION when the levees failed. James Buchanan would look good next to Bush. And given the cesspool he walked into, Obama has fared pretty well. He works hard, is brilliant, and has a decent heart. THAT must be what makes the low IQ crowd bat crazy.

I am an African-American native of Mississippi. I read a few of the comments posted regarding this story. I am sorry that you feel this puts your university in a negative light. I have a cousin that graduated from Ole Miss's Law School over 30 years ago. It is shameful that the same disdain that met her in person is shared for a man many of you have never meet simply because he does not share your skin color. It is also a shame that the future of Mississippi will be populated with adults who used to be the students that did this.

Unfortunately for us "blacks" we are proud enough to claim America. America has not been proud enough to claim us. "Latinos and mexican-americans" came here willingly. "Blacks" were forced. Where would we we go at this point? Open your eyes and realize that there are "Italian Americans" "German Americans" "Russian Americans" "Greek Americans" that distinguish themselves just as the "African Americans" and "Latino Americans" do. Stop with the double standards. I'm black, yes, and I can trace my family's history in this country probably a lot farther than most "whites". That does not make me better than any African who just stepped off the plane. Why do "whites" feel so entitled in a nation of immigrants? The article reported an unacceptable event. Face it. It is what it is...wrong.

So you are claiming that the university as a whole believes in these acts? How dare you generalize us by judgmental claims that this is expected of all Ole Miss students. Open your eyes, racism is everywhere. I am from Chicago attending this great university and even in our president's/my home city there are acts of racism.

Holly-wood says:
It sounds like the KKK is alive and well down in Crackerland. In the 1860s the Civil War was fought because the reddest of redneck states today wanted to succeed. From Texas and Oklahoma and all states to the east, except Virginia and Florida, I say let them succeed.

Let them pay their share of the national debt, pay fair market value for federal lands in their states, and let them be gone. Who needs them anyway? While the majority of the nation wants to move forward into the twenty-first century, they want to go back to the nineteenth century.

Correction: Make that "wanted to secede" instead of "succeed"

You ignorant crackheads do more harm to this country at any measured second than what happened at ole miss. Too all you ignorant fools that support the TYRANY of the state and think your boy in the White House will now do the dirty work for you? You ain't seen nothin yet. We know you can destroy, we know how to destroy and how to build civilizations! Stand down crackheads, or not.

To the coward who failed to ID him/herself: You're absolutely right - You do know how to destroy; you've been destroying ever since you landed on Plymouth Rock, and now, all that destruction of yours means nothing but failure. Why, look; you're still scratching your knees from 160 years of crawling on them after the North whupped your butt, and you still can't get over it? Why, Obama is NOT the first black President. Do your homework. Had Romney won, you would've been doing cartwheels -Why? Because he is White. Face it; this triad of yours is not about the political race. You're a racist. Period. And calling Holly-wood a crackhead because he/she may be black only solidifies your slow, asinine, backwoods narrow-minded mental state. This country is Not yours - Never was, never shall be! Get over it!

I am an Ole Miss student and yes what happened this past week was wrong and unjust. We are a family and community of individuals looking to become leaders in society so that one day we can provide a good influence to all others. We do have a right to protest but the actions that were made were morally wrong and embarrassing. With that being said the news has blown up this story way out of proportion as usual. It was not 400 students all shouting racial slurs, throwing rocks, and burning Obama/Biden posters. It was a select few of about 40-50 students who took part in these actions, all of the other students who were there were checking out what was going on. Please do not bash The University of Mississippi and stereotype all of our student body for the wrongdoings of a few. If you judge us all in such a matter then you America are just as shameful and ignorant.

The problem with your dismissal of this disgusting display of racism is that it is not an isolated thing. After all, this is the university that was so defiantly and institutionally racist in the 60s, that the National Guard had to be deployed to allow a black student onto campus. The fact that this recent incident happened at this university is neither surprising, nor coincidental.

Jeremy, It's not enough to just say "It's only a select few" and leave it at that. Condemn them publicly.Separate yourselves from the racists. That's something the Republicans failed to do and definitely cost them the WH and many Senate seats.

You know, many white people judge all black people by the actions of a few and that is wrong too but it happens and it happens all of the time. They never give black people a chance. We see it with our duly elected President and the nasty, hateful, racist rhetoric and disrespect our President and his wife have received over the past four years and it seems likely to continue.

derickwh says:
I am a white Romney supporter, that being said, I am ashamed at those people whose IQ's are so low as to use racial slurs at our President. I'm not a fan of OBAMACARE, but I DO think that, other than that, President Obama has done as well as can be expected. Whether or not the economy has completely recovered can not be the only question, remember that it was MY republican House that held all of the country hostage over the debt cap, not the democrats or the President. One man can neither get the WHOLE credit or the WHOLE blame, and certainly his ethnicity should not be ridiculed. Above all, we are all AMERICANS, including the President. Support his good decisions and question what you may feel are bad decisions, but do not use race as a reason. It's people like these (white AND black) that keep racism alive. I am ASHAMED to live in the same region of the United States as these obviously low-educated individuals. Remember your "rights" are yours as long as you don't use them to infringe upon others "rights", they are not yours to be wielded like a sword.

You are too smart to be a Romney or GOP supporter. I'd welcome your thoughts and ideas in the Democratic party.

Why don't you give us some examples of how he split the country, Walkthetalk. No BS now, just truth. Keep in mind many of us actually know what a socialist is.

How exactly has President Obama split our country? It was Republicans who decided that they would not work with him and that their main goal was to make him a one term President. Republicans, elected Republican officials made no secret of their disdain for our duly elected President. They have disrespected him, the First Lady, the office of the President and the American people with their doom, gloom, be afraid, be very afraid, constant negativity all done in their attempt to destroy President Obama. What exactly was President Obama supposed to do when some white Americans just out and out wanted to destroy him?
