		<description>The Secret Service investigated and found there was no credible threat.
 
&quot;Racism&quot; is not just against black people.  And it will always exist wherever human beings exist.
 
The thing is that there are all sorts of horrible things painted in the tunnel all the time; they only get attention when the N word is used and the fact that the press was looking for racism against Obama in particular in the wake of the election.
 
This is a &quot;free expression tunnel.&quot;   Had it not existed in the first place there would have been nothing spray painted anywhere.
 
It&#039;s simply ridiculous what is going on.  I know students at the university who will quit if they are forced to go through some kind of &quot;sensitivity training&quot; because of this.
 
What the people did in spray painting what they did did not harm any individual.  To go and mete out a punishment on an entire student body in what is essentially an effort to purge thought is fascist.
 
The idiot from the NAACP and his counterparts just want attention (and donations).
 
I read a shocking editorial quote from one of his counterparts: &quot;let&#039;s work more diligently on peace and unity within our land. Punishment must be swift in the aforementioned instances and in any subsequent incidents.&quot;
 
Peace and unity in this context means conformity of thought.  And the &quot;punishment must be swift&quot; part sends a chill up my spine.
 
I thought in the US we had due process, not &quot;swift punishment.&quot;</description>

		<description>&quot;The graffiti suggested shooting President-elect Barack Obama in the head. It also used a racial slur.&quot;

As you know, that&#039;s nothing to be taken lightly- although I&#039;m sure you wouldn&#039;t mind that actually happening. If anything that graffiti on the wall proves that racism is still alive and well today. Quite contradictory to what you people here seem to think.</description>
