Perhaps I'm naive, but somehow the idea that people can be such abusive creatures strikes me as violently wrong.

I can see how an unaffected bystander could attribute "the Fiji incident" to ignorance. I also suppose, as someone argued a few weeks ago, that to some people (historians, etc.) the swastika (like the one painted on the Arts building at the beginning of the semester) represents a period of history, rather than the systematic murder of over 11 million European citizens.

The gas chambers didn't discriminate between race or religion, so I'll admit to the historical argument, however much I may disagree.

Over the weekend of Oct. 20-22, a fellow student and resident of this campus discovered "feces and derogatory graffiti" on a neighbor's door. There's absolutely no possible qualification for feces.

There's no way one can argue for feces the way it has been argued for the Confederate flag and the swastika in the past few weeks.

As a student, an American and a human being, I'm offended, and I must ask you; What kind of person does these things? What kind of animal puts feces on someone's door?

What ARE you? Is it so far beyond your mental ability to live with diversity? I don't understand. What motivates someone to do something so warped?

This wasn't merely an attack on the Jewish resident of that room; it was an attack on civilized humanity.
