I'm glad social media wasn't around when I was younger. Not because I was going off on racist rants, but because of all the dumb stuff in general you do as a teenager.
I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

Oakbrook Preparatory School in Spartanburg issued a statement that this has nothing to do with the racist environment they allow.

Edit: Ah, here we go. Drunk fat chick ranting.
In the footage, first posted by the @saucecarolina IG account reportedly, the 17-year-old Oakbrook Preparatory School student tells her friends all “Mexicans and Middle Easterners” want to do “is kill people.” When asked how she feels about Africans, Gracie screamed “Kill them!” and suggested those in power “blow up the whole continent of Africa.” When asked about Germans, her response was “Y’all are Nazis, but since y’all hate gay people and Black people, I support.” She then proceeded to give what’s known as a Nazi salute, while shouting “Hail Hitler” and insisting Hitler was “a pretty quality man. And he went out the right way by killing himself.”
Gracie went on to say that all Black people look like monkeys. She also listed all of her “favorite slurs.”

... Gracie’s father Mike Wood is also a Spartanburg County magistrate judge, with the power to make minorities suffer under the guise of “justice,” so prayers up for South Carolina....

Why is Mom doing all of the apologizing (and blaming peers and booze)? Where's Gracie?
True, but I think we can read something into the parents' choice to send Gracie to a fundie Xtian school.O Really wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 11:33 amI don't know anything about this girl, and I don't know anything about the parents other than what's been reported. I'm pretty sure, though, that Gracie wouldn't be the first kid to run crosswise to their parents' thinking. Sometimes as normal development; sometimes as intentional rebellion. Sometimes just to try to get away from whatever image their parents have. So I, personally, would hold off a bit before painting the parents with the stain of the kid or assuming the kid is reflecting the parents views.
As one pretty smart shrink said (who happened to be my pop), "you can't raise your kid to be independent and then be pissed off when he's not just like you."

Antisemitism and homophobia are hardly surprising there. Then, it's been said that America is at its most segregated on Sunday mornings. Spartanburg is 43.75% Black or African American (non-Hispanic). Notice anything about this pic from Oakbrook Preparatory School's homepage?
What "values" did the parents think that she would be exposed to there?
Well, sure, but if your kid wore one, would you send them there? Or if your kid were black? Or Catholic? Nope. It's sort of a self-perpetuating selection whether they actively screen out "others" or not. But yeah, it does say something about the parents that they did send Gracie there.
The parents knew their kid was like this. From school, friends, or family, the parents knew and they raised this hate filled excuse of a child.O Really wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 12:35 pmWell, sure, but if your kid wore one, would you send them there?
