We should avoid phrasing our observations or assumptions as facts when we can though. I hope your essay went well. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.

Don't be shocked if you get attacked for having a more rational level-headed perspective. I doubt this was a mistake though. It was probably a student being an idiot like they tend to be at that age, thinking it was funny to switch names. The name also doesn't stand out during editing (like obscenities) so it's fair to assume that the school board did not notice it and are now taking the proper measures. This girl was hurt though and that needs to be acknowledged, just not at the expense of everything else. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose if someone had called a gay student a fa***t they would've let it slide as well? Isis is not a slur, it's the name of one of her classmates. Until there is evidence to suggest this is anything other then a unfortunate misprint, it's probably more helpful to focus your bleeding heart on more clear cut examples of Islamophobia.

SISTERV 3,887 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Aw....I feel bad for her. That's got to be mega embarrassing and frustrating. And the school trying to call this a "typo"? Really bitches? Obviously it was some asswhipe Ted Cruz supporter on the yearbook committee..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaybeKermit 5,242 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I really don't know what they can't understand about the fact that ISIS has NOTHING to do with religion. It's just a bunch of terrorists killing people and using Islam as their shield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiphEret 1,320 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I had a friend in school that is called Isis in reference to the Egyptian Goddess.
