University of Wisconsin student abandons pro-white group

Source: AP





CARA LOMBARDO, Associated Press 2 hrs ago 2

Even the KKK leaders are using the term European-American.

I worry about Wisconsin. The few Wisconsinites I know are good people. My last girlfriend was from rural northern Wisconsin and she claimed during her Grandmother's time it was scandalous for Swedish to fraternize with Norwegians.

12. Apparently "freedom" means the right to set fire to other people's churches, in Dropik's "mind."

So this dull-witted arson who burned black churches believes that his 85% white campus "had gone overboard in supporting nonwhite students and promoting cultural diversity."?

Poor, beset, and oppressed little white fella. Bless his little heart.
