Another race-based hate hoax has collapsed. The woketards who run most of America’s institutions of higher learning are on hair triggers when it comes to taking out their wrath on anyone they can even remotely link to some form of racist incident — even if they don’t have a shred of evidence.
In recent days, Brigham Young University ejected a fan from a volleyball game after he was falsely accused of screaming a racial epithet — the ‘n-word’ — at an opposing player from Duke University, according to The Western Journal.
The BYU athletic department posted a statement to Twitter last week saying that officials had identified the fan who supposedly used the epithet, adding that the fan had subsequently been permanently banned from all of the university’s sporting events.
“When a student-athlete or a fan comes to a BYU sporting event, we expect that they will be treated with love and respect and feel safe on our campus,” the statement noted. “It is for this reason BYU has banned a fan who was identified by Duke during last night’s volleyball match from all BYU athletic venues.”
The university went on to say that the fan was not a student of the school but was nonetheless seated in the student section, the outlet reported further.

However, within days of the BYU statement, the Salt Lake City Tribune reported that things are not what they appeared to be. BYU Police Lt. George Besendorfer told the newspaper that he did not believe at all that the fan identified as having yelled the slur was guilty.
“When we watched the video, we did not observe that behavior from him,” Besendorfer told the paper.
The Western Journal added:
Duke sophomore Rachel Richardson said she “very distinctly” heard a “very strong and negative racial slur” while serving in the match on Friday, the Tribune reported.
While BYU did not directly dispute the allegation, the university said the fan identified by Duke as the offender appeared to be innocent.
“Various BYU Athletics employees have been reviewing video from BYUtv and other cameras in the facility that the volleyball team has access to for film review,” BYU Associate Athletic Director Jon McBride told the Salt Lake City Trib.
“This has been ongoing since right after the match on Friday night. The person who was banned was the person identified by Duke as using racial slurs. However, we have been unable to find any evidence of that person using slurs in the match,” McBride continued.
The entire accusation was another race-based hate hoax, in other words. Once again, People of Color are playing the victim and inventing false smears against themselves in order to try to play the race card.
The Western Journal explained further that this case of mistaken identity occurs far too many times in our leftist-driven hyper-sensitive culture:
This apparent mistake shows the danger of believing allegations on the surface without waiting for details to substantiate them. Sadly, this practice has become all too common in the United States.
Especially in the context of racism or hate crimes, many Americans are afraid of the backlash they will receive if they question allegations of racism made by a minority. As a result, they blindly believe the allegations are 100 percent true, often before taking the time to investigate them.
In other words, for certain ‘offenses,’ we are considered guilty by the left until proven innocent, which is 180 degrees opposite of our founding legal principle — the presumption of innocence until proven guilty.
Now, if someone did yell a racial slur at Richardson, then of course that person should be identified and held responsible. But that said, the university’s own review of the situation has not turned up any conclusive evidence on anyone who attended the volleyball game in question.
“If BYU had taken time to investigate the allegations before banning the fan, they could have saved both themselves and the fan from embarrassment. Instead, they decided to take action against the fan before the details were clear, and that action now appears to have been unjust,” The Western Journal noted.
Spot-on.

The ‘n’ word LOL, yet calling Europeans/Americans “white trash” etc is quite acceptable.
N.B. Since I have absolutely no time for ((( communist ))) “political correctness”, I would happily type the full ‘n’ word here but likely this comment would be deleted.
N.N.B Please excuse me Rixon if I incorrectly prejudge your editorial policy on the ‘n’ word.
Words that describe Blacks are taken as insults because Blacks are crap, and the words “ape” and “monkey” are trigger-words because of the resemblance
When I read an article about the story, I thought the Black girl made up the accusation, but if she thought she heard the N-word, she may have actually heard somebody say “digger” a term for a volleyball player.
From an article: a digger has to deliver a ball to the right place on the volleyball court.
From an article: The job of a volleyball digger is to prevent the ball from hitting the floor after being spiked by the opposing team.
Years ago, we used to go watch the volleyball games at our university.
The major media prefers to demonize “Whites” with just about every opportunity, but no reporting on why Black communities have a major violence problem and how to reduce it for the sake of Black people.
Just the usual Jew hoax…….many pogroms were instigated by Jews, or based on LIES.
one doubtful word in wrong ears
+ we are again in middleage of
inquisition !
The Constitution states Americans have ‘freedom of speech’. But certain words are ‘proscribed’. Notice they’re all words describing nonwhite ethnicities…lol. Whites need to dump Jewish Christianity & convert to the new pro-white religion of Thelema & adopt the precepts of Crowley’s ‘Liber Oz’:
3. Man has the right to speak what he will.
5. Man has the right to kill those who would thwart these rights.
Are you sure he didn’t shout “Let’s go Brandon”. America has become a shameful parody of what it used to be. Turn of the TV, disconnect from social media, take a sabbatical from college. In about six month your brain will be healed.
Will the real domestic terrorists please stand up and shout the N word a million times..
> Now, if someone did yell a racial slur at Richardson, then of course that person should be identified and held responsible.
Why?
Waw has it right in his comment above.
…. I’m looking at you, Richardson.
When I was a college athlete, we were called all sorts of wildly unflattering things by fans of the opposing teams, especially when playing on their turf. And I mean nasty stuff, including some targeting our mothers. We rolled with it and even used it as motivation to get more physical with the opponent.
What we didn’t do was go crying to administrators over name-calling. In a couple cases, we took it directly to the source; I went after one extraordinarily belligerent fan I identified after the game, and the guy practically shit himself when he realized he was going to have to back up his big mouth. In another college hockey game in an opposing arena, we had a bench-clearing brawl and some of the fans were going ape-shit, so we took the fight to the stands where anyone stupid enough to not run away got punched in the face, including fans, parents, their mascot, the chump in the concession stand…it was mayhem. Scores of cops were called in and the team bus was given a heavy escort to the city limit and advised to never come back. lol
Nico X–why are you confusing the Constitution and Christianity? America dumped Christianity in favour of the Enlightenment and Freemasonry. It wanted “White men of good character” which only HAPPENS to usually mean Christians
