    “#ForgetBlackLivesMatter; more like AllLivesMatter,” wrote Rohini Sethi, the vice president of the school’s student government association.

    It seems that Rohini Sethi saying "#ForgetBlackLivesMatter" first...was all that was really heard here, especially the "Forget" part which is in my opinion what caused her problems. If she had just said "AllLivesMatter" I don't think anyone would have taken offense and gone to the lengths they have to "punish" her.

    Although we are supposed to have Freedom of Speech here in America, it has been taken away in many cases by those who say we have no right to any speech or deed that signifies "hate" in any way, shape, or form. Who gets to judge what is "hate" speech or deed? Whoever stands up and yells "hate" the loudest!

    In the case of Rohini Sethi...the black community on Campus yelled the loudest!
