The school punishing them doesn't violate their first amendment rights, though. The school is a private entity that can have whatever rules about acceptable speech it wants. If they were to be jailed for it, then yeah, that'd be a violation, but as long as it's not the government silencing them, it's fair game.

A school caring about the First Amendment!? Color me surprised!

Wait? Is it still kosher to say color me surprised...?

Wait!? Is it still kosher to say kosher...?

I don't understand the question. Yea or Nah to blackface? Or Yea or Nah to the punishment?
I would say Yea to blackface and Nah to the punishment. Blackface is one of those things that I had never heard of until people started making a fuss about it. I just don't see what the issue is. It seems like an entirely innocuous thing to make a big deal about.

State universities aren't private institutions, they have to follow government rules. If this was Harvard or something, then yea that would apply, but for Colorado State they are essentially run by the government and have to follow government rules.

Suppose someone has never heard of a tornado. When they find out what one is it's rather self explanatory why people would be concerned about them. However, why having dirt on ones face effects anyone else is not obvious.

Ya know if they were at a convention or something and seemed like they were actually enthusiastic about Black Panther, I personally dont think it would be wrong for someone to wear face paint as part of a costume

This is obviously a case of some white kids just being assholes though

Is it? Or is it a public university funded by the taxpayers?

I guess we have to get rid everything that has a person portraying a different race, such as White Chicks, black face minstrels etc. Mods please remove stuff like this on GameFaqs.

People are so weird. Why do people say sorry so much when they aren't?
Like, I noticed that in the comments of the article and I hear it all day.
Are people turning more and more into liars, just for the chance of someone being fooled into thinking better of them? Self centered liars is what they look like.
"I'm sorry but..."
