Election Results Trigger Racial Tensions At Baylor University

It didn’t take long after America elected its first African American president for racial tensions to ignite. At Baylor University, the election led to verbal altercations on campus last night.
 

To Obama supporters, one guy taunted “You’re in Texas and y’alls vote didn’t count because Texas still voted McCain.” He really showed them, I’m sure. But the jabs soon escalated.
 

One African American woman says she overheard some white males talking about how they were going to beat up the next black person that walked by. Other students claim someone hung a noose on campus and burned Obama political signs. Fortunately, though, none of these confrontations seemed to come to violence.
 

The whole thing kind of puts a damper on the “Change has come to America” thing Obama had going on. Especially when there are commenters out there still writing things like “obama should not be president…….he is muslin….” Change? Not in Texas at least.
