    I can see both sides.
    I mean black people are commonly falsely accused of shoplifting. And many shop owners are known for following black people around stores.
    The bakery should have just installed security cameras.
    Problem solved.
    And why is social justice warrior an insult? In my view Justice is a good thing, even justice concerning social issues.

    But in this case they weren’t falsely accused, in fact they plead guilty to it. Still didn’t stop the SJWs from protesting. The people who were falsely accused was the store owner

    What are the two sides of this story that you can see? How would installing security cameras have prevented this and solved the problem? The people protesting and Oberlin weren't interested in justice. They wanted to smear innocent people as racists without any facts to support their charges. How is that justice?

    Putting lipstick on a pig doesn't make it any less of a pig. "Social Justice Warrior"..christ.

    And the whole "they should have just installed security cameras' is a bullshit argument. With that line of thinking, we? are all going to be outfitted with government funded Go Pros to document our innocence against false accusations.

    Fuck that, Big Brother.

    You don’t just allude to a made up “history of discrimination” in order to appease your students. This history didn’t exist. That’s defamation and Oberlin has earned this verdict.

    It’s no more okay for the left to make shit up than it is for Daddy to make shit up.

    This guys a real Beaut. He reminds me a lot of Aeropostal of Grief, just more naive and ignorant. If that was somehow possible.

    He is definitely what you would call a throwback resistor circa December 2016. He doesn’t really read the news and hasnt realized that 81% of his so called social injustices have proven to be bullshit.

    They should've installed security cameras? That's some damn fine victim blaming.

    Well if there was discrimination that wouldn’t be good would it. To me it seems the actual people in the wrong here are the shoplifters who stole and then claimed discrimination. But sure let’s only get mad at the students... who while at the end, were incorrect, didn’t necessarily start out with the intentions to falsely accuse the shop.
