A few students at Texas Tech University had an "ingenious" idea about how to solve America's immigration crisis AND raise money to build that wall Trump wants so bad —
sell licenses to hunt immigrants crossing the border. The sick and macabre idea was proposed in a group chat entitled "
Frat Chat." In it, these "future leaders" suggest that
"illegal" immigrant hunting should become a sport. He suggests lining undocumented immigrants up in front of a firing squad and using the "athletic" ones to improve the US soccer team.
The ringleader of this disgusting conversation was Kyle Mitchell who prompted his fellow frat boys to debate about the highly polarizing subject by saying "Let's argue about immigration."
It didn't take long for the bros to use every hateful epithet and stereotype imaginable. From there they target immigrants, Latinos in general and even take a few stabs at African-Americans.
At one point while the men discuss the best ways to kill undocumented immigrants, one chat group member — Alex Provost — said:
"I've met ranchers that kill illegals and [bury] them under cattle graves along the border." If Alex is telling the truth, this chat is not only reprehensible but could help solve a crime and police should investigate.
In a statement, Texas Tech officials said "these insensitive and racially charged messages do not reflect the core values of the institution." and that they were investigating the matter. But what is there to investigate? If the university really rejects this type of behavior,
they should also flat out reject the "Frat Chat" boys for their deplorable and dangerous behaviour.
Sign the petition and tell Texas Tech University that the "Frat Chat" students have got to go. Tell the university to expel them.
