Harvard Rescinds Admission for Parkland Student Over ‘Offensive’ Comments

[Anonymous]

Lol. I've no respect left for this University now. After the ridiculous commencement speech by it's Dean, now this. They admit this kid because he supports and made noise about a "blessed liberal cause" but then OMG, he said racist shit. That's a no no. Let's lock him out.
This University administration is beyond stupid. It tells you how they are choosing kids now.

What “blessed liberal cause” are you talking about?

When you are admitted you should definitely turn them down. That will show them!

I think all crazy right wingers should start their own universities comparable to all our schools in the US.

When someone is 18 and said stupid stuff at 16 and offer no apology or reflection - that is something else entirely.

You know what? I'm 42. When I was a teenager I did a couple of things that either weren't smart or I regret. I accidentally dropped an F-bomb in front of my friend's toddler-aged sister and their mom. I quit a cashier job because I wanted to hang out with my friends more. I had shopping cart races in a back parking lot with friends (this is what I quit that job to do).

But I was never racist. I never stole or damaged property. I never bullied. I never got drunk or did illegal drugs. So I get really tired of hearing people trot out the excuse that "everyone does these things when they're a teenager" because I didn't, and the kids I was friends with didn't. I had tons of fun and remember laughing a lot. Like when my friend and I realized the toddlers we babysat for knew each other, and we tried to get them to talk to each other on the phone. Like when my friend and I painted a wall in her bedroom while speaking in thick French accents because we'd just learned the term "accent wall." Like when my friend came over so we could study for the SAT's together and she was rocking in my rocking chair and flipped over. We just had fun and worked hard at school and life.

You're calling Harvard stupid? They wouldn't admit someone who doesn't know the difference between its and it's and can't make a coherent argument. Not sure if you bothered to read the article, but he was admitted because of his fame as a conservative supporting gun control. Sorry that it offends you that Harvard took a stance against someone calling for the killing of Jews. You may want to get counseling for that.

Meh! Harvard or any school will rescind your offer for admission if you make threats to kill people on social media. His being NRA person or being in the school where the shooting occur or his race or his political affiliation does not matter.

In the end, unstable psychopaths who are gun-enthusiasts and have threats to kill other students do not get admitted anywhere but Trump U.

This. His being a conservative doesn't give him a pass to make violent threats and be racist .

you sound like the world's most awesome teenager - that accent wall story is hysterical!

and yes, your point is 100% correct: i did really stupid sh*t when i was a teenager and yet i managed not to threaten minorities or rape anyone

amazing what some people think white boys should be entitled to try out as kids

I see zero problem with it. The kid seems like a racist creepy sociopath and all the "hype" behind him was obviously pumped up and manufactured by far right wing think tanks and bots. Have fun at Liberty U, young man.
