Gov. Greg Abbott lauded the arrest of a student on Texas Tech University's campus who was reportedly seen celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination, writing in a social media post, "FAFO"or "Fuck around and find out." Abbott thanked the university in a series of posts on X for arresting a student who was recorded dancing in response to the news of Kirk's death, yelling "Fuck y'all, yo homie dead." The governor appeared to warn others by sharing a screenshot of a video of the student's arrest, captioning it, "This is what happened to the person who was mocking Charlie Kirk's assassination at Texas Tech." "Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk," Abbott said in an earlier Sunday X post. A spokesperson with the university confirmed to Chron Monday morning that the student was no longer enrolled at the university.

"Any behavior that denigrates victims of violence is reprehensible, has no place on our campus, and is not aligned with our values. Federal law prevents Texas Tech University from commenting on individual student conduct matters," the spokesperson told Chron. "We take all reported violations seriously and address them under university policy and the law."

You can arrest people for not mourning deaths?

In that case, there's a long list of names, particularly from the thoughts and prayers crowd that I'm willing to share

Their hypocrisy is astounding.

Even worse is the fact that they get away with it.

There is no way this sticks right? Like what law can be used to prosecute here?

Hope she countersues the school and Abbott into oblivion.

If Christianity is real, then people like Abbott would be the ultimate victims of FAFO. Just like what Kirk is probably doing at the this moment.

this was excessive (just remove him from the campus), but the guy was literally celebrating someone getting murdered. You can disagree with Charlie Kirk, but dont make an asshole of yourself by doing crap like this.

The double standard here really is irritating.

A significant fraction of right wing commenters and the like openly celebrate every death and attack they see as being politically useful for their filthy cause, and are give 100% cover for this by Republicans and the mainstream media.

It's true. A policeman was jailed in the UK for mocking the death of George Floyd.

(The vile racism had a lot to do with it).

Right.

One of Republicans went on so long talking about the victims of Sandy Hook he got sued and still refuses to reign it in.

Yet one of their own was murdered by one of their own and now all of a sudden those same people wanna wage war in speech?

Obama could've ended Fox News for saying he's the antichrist, his wife is ugly, he's not American, baby-killer or any number of other heinous things said about him.

This country is circling the toilet bowl.

Regarding Obama and Fox News, it still pisses me off that the mainstream media circled the wagons for Fox News when the Obama administration tried to reduce access for Fox News.

Republicans can do pretty much whatever they want, our system of checks and balances has failed and all three branches of the federal government are corrupt to their core so there is nothing to prevent things such as this blatant first amendment violation from happening.

The Kirk part has a lot to do with it and it's the reason we're hearing about it at all, why she was expelled, and why ghouls like Cruz and Abbott are trying to score points with it, but I hope the arrest specifically was about the alleged assault.

Or I hope they really stepped over the line and will get rekt in court. Though a Texas court in Lubbock might not be very helpful....

It's why anyone is paying attention to it. She put her hands on some kid there. it's on camera, she lightly shoved his head. It's a pretty soft ass interpretation of what constitutes as assault but when you're antagonizing people and cops are standing 20 feet away probably in your best interest to keep you hands to yourself.
