Unlike 'Trump' Written in Chalk, 'Death to Pigz' Brings Major Student Support

"F*** white supremacy, this is our university!"

College students around America have had their souls crushed after reading horrifying messages like "Trump 2016" written in chalk on campus sidewalks. But what happens when those same snowflakes come across graffiti that says, "Death to pigz" and "The devil iz a white man?" Full, unflinching support.
According to The Daily Caller, that's exactly what happened recently at the University of Wisconsin-Madison when major streets around campus were blocked by student protesters who were showing their support for another student who spray-painted those messages on school grounds.
From the DC:
The protests were sparked by the recent arrest of Denzel McDonald, who is accused of spraying graffiti with inflammatory messages around campus under the moniker “God.” McDonald faces numerous vandalism charges (his messages cost the school over $4,000 to fix) as well as one disorderly conduct charge for allegedly threatening to kill a bystander who caught him in the act.
McDonald sounds like a real gem. His fellow students sure think he is and are outraged that he was arrested in the middle of class for exercising his right to free speech, or something. "Trump 2016" is also free speech but they won't stand for messages like that and will do everything in their power to shut them down.
Here's what McDonald's supporters did on Thursday: they gathered at the main campus library with megaphones in hand at the exact moment he was arrested, 11:30 am, and began chanting loudly. Then they poured out into the streets and blocked traffic. Below is video posted by the DC showing them shouting "F*** white supremacy, this is our university:"
One of UW's Teaching Assistant Association leaders, Sergio González, said McDonald was only targeted because he was black:
"The event last week, which targeted a young black male, represented the hypocrisy of the administration, showing what crimes they will investigate, and what crimes they won’t."
And in typical fashion, the protesters issued demands to drop the charges against McDonald and for UW to fire everyone involved in the arrest "from the officers… all the way up to Chancellor Rebecca Blank," the DC states.
Blank responded, telling the protesters she stands behind the arrest as appropriate and will not cave to their demands:
Embedded in the student demands are requests for actions that I do not believe are reasonable, or even lawful, for me to take. In fact, several of the demands seek to apply authority that the university does not have under state law or UW System policies and procedures.
But just give it time, those students have nothing better to do than harass and intimidate and they will stop at nothing until their give-it-all-to-me-now mentality is satisfied.
