Give me ambiguity or give me something else.
Yah, I feel for her, but she needed this life lesson.

This will be forgotten soon enough if she keeps her head straight and learns from it.
Yes, she needed a lesson. I just worry about disproportionate retribution in this day and age. Last I heard, Justine Sacco's life still sucked.

Outrage and coming down hard on a deserving target are drug like in their addictiveness. People need to be careful about viewing public shaming as a righteous act of justice, rather than acknowledging its true sadistic nature.

there is another video out there. Someone recorded her talking to a "friend" after this all went viral. I use friend in quotes because she likely recorded it.

In this one, Barber is whining about what happened "to her"

She says she isn't a racist because she "f'ed a football player"

"everyone knows I'm funny as s" (So I guess she was joking?)

"her parents aren't around (shocking) but her grandparents are but it's ok cause they are racist as F too"

and for whatever reason she brags "I F'ed like 9 Pikes this year"

Clearly she is someone we should all be happy to have away from Bama, unless you are a Pike of course
Is there truly another video?

Sounds like the Barbers tried to "raised her better than that" and they're rightly embarrassed. Hate it for the parents...kid may have ruined her life after one drunk rant.

a gsu soccer player caught the bug and couldn't help herself.

there seem to be quite a few folks that can't seem to bear being proximity to black folks without lashing out

A Georgia State University soccer player was suspended from the team after she used a racial epithet on social media, school officials said.

Freshman defender Natalia Martinez’s name was stripped from the team’s online roster after the epithet appeared on her Finsta page, a private version of Instagram that is growing in popularity among teens.

While trying to find out what the GSU student said, I found this: article

Patch reports that Martinez played four games for the Georgia State Panthers in 2017, is a native of Elizabeth, New Jersey, and played high school soccer in Weston, Florida.

you must be new here. if you venture onto the slime pit that is the comments section on that article, you will see a lot of the same.
There's usually a vast difference of opinion in here but not of that sort.
The comments section of most news sites is abysmal - except paywall sites. USAToday is a cesspool.
