Shocking.

Absolutely shocking.

Vermont rednecks go to school?

Hope there’s some video cameras near there…time for a public racist roasting, getting that scumbag fired from a job and run the hell out of town. That needs to happen to every single Republican racist found…go after them all and ruin their lives.

Most of the people in many of the larger towns in vermont are reasonably progressive (for one of the whitest states in the union) but once you get into the rural areas, things can change dramatically. We used to notice the the “Take Back Vermont” signs (trying to outlaw civil unions) were almost always attached to the older broken-down houses and decrepit farm buildings.

Guess those punks need some positive affirmations?

These are really just signs to welcome the soon-to-be-arriving winter snows.

Nothing to see here.

How insecure with themselves those people must be to do such a thing as to reaffirm their own identity of being white. It’s really quite pathetic.

I’m not necessarily disagreeing with your statement in a general sense, but these signs were posted around campuses located in Burlington - the only city by population standards in the entire state.

I’m having a hard time feeling much outrage over “it’s okay to be white.” I couldn’t possibly summon any emotion that could make me want to post one, but I don’t see how it’s objectionable.

I’m assuming that the UVM administration condemning it “in the strongest possible terms,” while merely an overreaction to a silly sign, is going to be spun by some as another sign that some liberals don’t think it’s okay to be white.

I think these signs are the absolute last thing we should be worried about.

Being white has never been an issue in the US–for white people. It’s often been a big problem for others.

Yeah, white privilege is not an issue? White supremcacy is OK too? And who ever got bothered by any racism?

Poor white man.

They’re whining again. Although with Trump, I’m sure ashamed of and disgusted with the poor, put-upon whiteys out there.

Dumbasses like that are giving white people a bad name.

Because never in the history of the United States has being white ever been a real problem. If it has, it’s certainly not been a problem in Vermont.

94.3% of the population identified as white not of Hispanic or Latino origin in a 2013 US Census estimate.[104] As of the 2010 census, Vermont was the second-whitest state in the Union after Maine.[105]

It’s okay to be white. Hilarious.

It’s kind of like putting up signs in Mississippi that say, “It’s OK to be Christian.”

Well, it’s really not OK.

Anyone who inexplicably finds themselves white should see a doctor.

Or possibly an undertaker.
