USC player in trouble over “racist” Facebook
Facebook group lands USC football player in hot water:
A University of Southern California football player is in hot water for making a “racist” Facebook group. Junior linebacker Clay Matthews created a group called “White Nation” after Matthews and some other white players on USC’s football team were jokingly dubbed “White Nation” by a black teammate. According to the article there was no racist intent behind the group. However some member of the group, believed not to be a member of the USC football team, posted a picture of a black baby in handcuffs that said “arrest black babies before they become criminals.” Mr. Matthews has apologized for the group and has since relinquished control over the group. It’s now controlled by students from another school and are using it to combat racism.
I have no doubt that the group was started in good fun but when you use a name like “White Nation” you’re bound to attract more than a few racist assclowns.
