Please tell me there is more to this story! Please tell me there was more written on the flyer than just "white pride"! If that's all that was written then society is completely hopeless!!! I though we are all supposed to be proud of who we are, but not evil whitey I guess. If anyone knows more details please share!

What set off this latest noose incident was the OUTRAGE over a Compton ghetto themed party that brought charges of racism. So who was the dastardly organizer of that party? Some Klan member? Well, not quite. So how to save face? Well, suddenly a few weeks later a noose conveniently appeared on campus. Who hung the noose? Another Klan member? Well, today's San Diego Union provides the answer in this ARTICLE:

LA JOLLA— In an anonymous letter circulated on campus yesterday, the University of California San Diego student who hung a noose in the school library last week apologized for what she called a “mindless act and stupid mistake.

“I know what I did was offensive — regardless of my intentions — I am just trying to say I’m sorry,” read the letter, which was published in the student newspaper, the UCSD Guardian.“As a minority student who sympathizes with the students that have been affected by the recent issues on campus, I am distraught to know that I have unintentionally added to their pain.”

Ooooooh! It was a MINORITY student who hung that noose, not David Duke. And here is her incredibly lame CYA excuse:

The student claims in her letter that she and her friends were playing with a rope when one of them tied it into a noose.

“I innocently marveled at his ability to tie a noose, without thinking of any of its connotations or the current racial climate at UCSD. I left soon after with one of my friends for Geisel to study, still carrying the rope,” she writes.“After a bit of studying I picked up the rope to play with, and ended up hanging it by my desk. It was a mindless act and stupid mistake. When I got up to leave, a couple hours later, I simply forgot about it.”

The student said the rope was left in the library last Tuesday. It was not reported to campus police until 10:30 p.m. Thursday.

And who would actually be suckers enough to fall for such an obvious fake hate crime?
