Why are people defending the person who made monkey noises outside a Black student’s dorm?

Probably because they're being attacked so hard just because of what race they are doing it.

We all know that it's race grifting and not that big of a deal... it's the same reason the same media was going ape shit over that black girl that got hung from a tree and then they STFU as soon as they realized white people didn't do it. ... like a factoid... they were doing it at other apartments too that didn't have ring cameras and they were not black... monkey + black though... then it's a problem.

My personal take on it... the white girls live upstairs and can hear the monkey noises... being drunk they made monkey noises while going by. Instead of just owning it and realizing they sound like a bunch of monkies that fight over a bananna... it's on the news because our fee fee's are so hurt by it. Boo hoo.

Then there are those of us that have to deal with the real racisim... that's violent and a lot more than 2 seconds of monkey noises. They see this being blown out of portion on TV, and yeah, they want to support these girls because they know it's the opposite on the streets in everyday life.

don't know that drama.

you know what never shows up in media... people being decent to each other.

Those girls look whacked. It's wrong to hurt others feelings in general. But if the guys were abusive, and they are getting them back, then I think society would support that. They should be trained training to be the bigger human and not do that, that's what the answer could be.

FWIW I've seen black person insult white people and seen it in public. A black, African American male, tall, skinny in San Franisco yelling "look at all these white monkeys!".

Just noting that because it never showed up in the news. Noone complained, we all know we are monkeys.

Because, frankly, people have a right to be assholes. I don't think that people are defending her because they don't think it was wrong. I think it's more that the response has been so insanely over the top. People are starting to reject the idea that race is the most important thing and racist is the worst thing one can possibly be. I would be willing to bet that that campus is full of shitbags that harass and offend people, but none of them are facing such backlash.

Because in America monkey noises are considered free speech which overrides peoples right to dignity and live their lives peacefully.
