Don't forget misogynist - it's the catch phrase right now on my facebook.

Everyone is so offended by everything it's pathetic.

Students use 'Trump' as anti-Latino taunt during basketball game - CNN.com

I know it's probably old news for some of you. But it is news to me. I never heard of this before.

I was very disturbed by this story. While I was driving home, I started crying. Yes, I cried. I found myself asking myself how did it come to this? I also thought of the movie that was based on a true story I saw called Europa Europa.

Youths are impressionable. Their sense of right and wrong hasn't been developed yet, which makes them especially vulnerable to impressions, particularly by those who have imposing voices.

Please don't vote for Trump. I don't know what else to say.
Alright. I read your stupid post and scanned this stupid thread. Quote from the article:

"It was disturbing," said Howard. "I was shocked. After a while not seeing the administration come over and say that was enough, I was disgusted. I coach volleyball at another high school. I was more disappointed in the adults."

Bottom line: These were kids. The responsible adults in the room should have acted like responsible adults. As happens so often now, they didn't (or at least were slow to react). This isn't about Trump. It's about how we (the adults in the room) are raising the next generation. End of story.

In World War 2 there was Tokyo Rose.
In Vietnam there was Hanoi Jane.
Now on Russian TV there is #MoscowDon.
