If similar statements by David Hogg are uncovered, then we can test that theory. But until then, it’s nothing but rank speculation and deflection on your part because you know there’s no other way to defend Kashuv.

Seems like colleges have less of a problem with profanity than they do with blatant and extreme racist statements.

Does he want to kill his parents, too, then?

Last month, a classmate posted a video to Twitter of Kashuv and others messaging on a Google Doc in 2017. He wrote the n-word several times and said in one message “f the Jews” and “kill the f*n Jews.”

They were speaking privately and being outrageous, deliberately. He wasn’t being serious. I know, however, there are liberals who hate Jews and use Israel as a blanket of cover for their hatred.

Cool. And now he knows that actions have consequences, even if you say you're sorry.

But actions only have consequences sometimes and when convenient. Liberals claim they want fairness when in fact they want control.

I would be more concerned about the false statements. In fact, Harvard has an issue with political differences

Ok. Where are the liberal kids with racist statements who don't have their Harvard acceptances rescinded?

There’s a difference between using four letter words and spewing racism and hate.

+1. It’s so telling that pp doesn’t see the difference. The problem isn’t that Kashuv said “eff,” it’s that he said he wanted to kill Jews and called black people the n-word.

Well, of course... Would he admit that this is how he really feels?

Harvard clearly doesn't have a problem with political differences in this case, as they accepted Kashuv after his pro-gun stance was known but before all the racism.

I keep trying and failing to put this into words - but here goes: We all expect that people affiliated with the groups that he is affiliated with think what he said. I think the problem is that he said the quiet parts out loud. It would have been ok if he was merely part of groups we *know* but can't prove hate jews. But he had to go and say it and now we can't pretend that maybe he doesn't think these things.

+1 Harvard would be half empty if they didn't admit kids who used profanity. But threatening to mow down blacks and Jews? From a kid who got in because of his Parkland fame? No. Way.

Thoughts and prayers, Mr. Kashuv. I'm sure you'll get through this somehow.

I'm pretty sure David Hogg never said he wanted to kill anyone - especially not on the basis of their race or religion. That seems like a significant distinction.

Was it Maya Angelou who said that when people show you who they are, believe them the first time? Good for Harvard for kicking out this racist anti-Semite before he starts.

[Anonymous]

Using racial slurs and being called out for it can be linked in people’s minds is not picking on conservative youth. Racial slurs are wrong regardless of party affiliation. People who degrade other people don’t deserve to go to top schools.

Wow. Sounds like just the type of kid any college would be thrilled to have.

Sounds like a shoo-in for Liberty U.

I think the threats of violence might give even Liberty U pause in admitting this kid.

+1

Verbal racism is one thing, where maybe one could argue freedom of speech and go to a southern school like Ole Miss or Alabama, but no school would ever admit a student who makes threats of violence, especially to groups of people.
