Only in America. And that is also why the KKK in St. Louis is worried about white women getting rape after the grand jury's decision is announced. As a country, we take one step forward and 2 steps back.

I commend the students for saying that they don't want the administrator fired. Shows character-- something the tweeter apparently does not have.

Huh?

Frankly I think the tweet is insulting towards white men more than anything by implying they are racists.

It doesn't say anything is wrong with the young men other than the FATHER would have a problem with them dating their white daughter.

Regardless, I think it's hillarious that whomever tweeted that probably thought they were being cute jumping in on the whole "racist white men" meme and so they were *safe* making a racist comment. Oooops, it can be (incorrectly) interpreted as being a dig on the black youths in the photo so surprise!

No, the biggest insult, by far, is the implications about "white girls".

Note that you must degrade women to make the racial insult. Proof positive this is bad people at work.

It's an inaccurate tweet. Not all white men care about their daughters.
