TWITTER TROUBLE

Campus, organizations react to Black Student Association tweet

By MCKENZI MORRIS Editor-In-Chief

After a July 6 tweet from the Texas Tech Black Student Association’s official twitter page, Tech and the organization released statements on Wednesday regarding the content and origin of the message.

The tweet was posted the day before five law enforcement officers were killed in Dallas after a peaceful Black Lives Matter protest. It read “All lives don’t mater (sic), white lives don’t matter, blue lives don’t matter, black lives matter.”

The organization tweeted their response from a new account, @BSATxTech, on Wednesday after local media and radio stations began to talk about the original tweet Wednesday morning.

“A tweet recently was posted that is not indicative of how the Texas Tech Black Student Association feels or what we represent as an organization,” the organization said in the tweet. “We are working are working diligently to rectify this situation by investigating who originated the tweet. We have taken down the tweet, and made a new account. We believe that all of us matter.

We would like all of your support as we support the unity on this campus, the unity within our community, as well as unity nationwide. We are stronger together!”

The organization made its original Twitter page, @ TTUBSA, a private account so only approved followers have access to their profile and the contents of it, according to the Twitter page, sometime between July 6 and Wednesday afternoon. That account has over 1,000 followers.

After the organization and university responded to the situation, Tech Student Body President Ben Sharp released a letter to students and said he and the Student Government Association are committed to brining unity to the Tech campus.

“IN these times, it is of the utmost importance that we come together as members of the Red Raider family, committing to support one another,” Sharp said in the letter. “Rather than allowing our diverse backgrounds and experiences create dissent, let us instead seek to foster empathy and understanding.”

The Black Student Association is handling finding out who originated the tweet, Cook said, and it will handle the situation from there.

The university has no plans to do an official investigation, Managing Director of the Office of Communications & Marketing Chris Cook said, and no disciplinary action is being discussed for the organization.

Aretha Marbley, on-campus advisor for the organization according to their OrgSync page, and Erica Brooks, organization president, were reached out to for a comment but they did not respond.

The official Texas Tech Twitter account replied to the organization’s response less than an hour after it was posted. “#TexasTech is dedicated to an inclusive environment for all. A recent tweet is not representative of TTU or the org,” the TTU tweet said.

The original tweet from the Black Student Association was shared on the Young Conservatives of Texas at Texas Tech’s Facebook page early Wednesday morning with a response statement.

“This morning, one of our members sent this to us,” the Young Conservatives said on the p o s t . We would like to let @ TTUBSA know that all lives DO matter, and that we at the Young Conservatives stand not only with the LPD, but all first responders around the nation.”

On Wednesday evening, Tech Student Democrats sent an email about the Black Student Association and the organization’s tweet.

“Out of respect for YCT, we would like to inform you all that we will be releasing a statement in support of BSA in the wake of the false and malicious tweet that has been publicized,” the Tech Student Democrats said in the email. “We hope that YCT will apologize for spreading the tweet and publish a letter in support of BSA also. At times like this, we must stand together in unity, both as Red Raiders and Americans.”

The YCT responded to the email on their Facebook page later Wednesday night.

“In response to the Tech student (sic) Democrats, we will not be apologizing for spreading the truth,” the YCT

said in the post. “BSA did publish this post, and we have done nothing wrong in standing with our nation’s first responders. #alllivesmatter.”

The Tech Student Democrats posted an official statement on its Facebook page late Wednesday.

“It has been brought to our attention that a statement about our friends at the Black Student Association of Texas Tech is being spread around social media,” the Tech Student Democrats said in the post. “We would like to relay the message that the malicious tweet bearing the Texas Tech BSA’s name is not representative of the organization’s mission.

Tech Student Democrats would like to extend our full support to our university’s Black Student Association by urging those who have spread false statements about the organization to apologize and stand in solidarity with the Black Student Association. We must all stand united as both Red Raiders and Americans during difficult times that threaten to divide our nation. We stand in solidarity with Texas Tech BSA and will continue to promote equality and acceptance alongside them.”

Student shares Dallas shooting experience

By MICHAEL CANTU News Editor

In the middle of a march that was condemning police violence on behalf of the Black Lives Matter movement, Naairah Lott a senior marketing major from Lancaster was in Dallas July 7.

Lott, who is part of the Black Lives Matter movement, said going into this march the last thing she expected was any sort of violence to incur. Throughout the entirety of her participation in the July 7 march, Lott said there was a lot of peaceful interaction between protestors and police.

This made it especially surprising once a gunman opened fire, killing five Dallas law enforcement officers.

“The protest was basically closing and in the process (of closing) I lost one of my friends, so I was on the phone with one of my friends and then the shots rang out,” Lott said.

“At first we heard the first two shots and everyone was kind of confused, because we were close to a parking garage and so everyone was thinking maybe it was a car.”

Once the crowd figured out it was gunfire, Lott said the crowd began to disperse fastidiously. Lott ran in the opposite direction and followed commands when she was told to get down to try and avoid any injuries, she said.

Running into another parking lot, Lott hid under a truck and immediately called her parents, she said.

“At that time I also Facetimed one of my really good friends and he was on the phone with me, basically throughout the whole time (I was there), until maybe 2 a.m.,” she said.

While getting out from under the truck Lott was instructed to try and get away from the area, she said. She

continued to walk in the opposite direction of the protest and she heard gun fire from behind her, she said.

Along with her, a large crowd gathered at the Omni Hotel in downtown Dallas to try secure themselves from any outside fire. While in the lobby of the hotel, the staff and people who were staying there seemed to be very accommodating, she said, handing out water and letting people charge their phones.

“Then there was word that the shooter had came into the Omni. So everyone in the Omni started scattering and they took us to the back where the workers are,” she said. “We took the employee elevator and

they put us in a safe spot. After SWAT team had and they had to the building.”

different that the came in evacuate

People need to remember that we are all human. We all bleed the same blood, despite our differences we are all the same.

NAAIRAH LOTT STUDENT Because her car was still on Main St., which was part of the crime scene, Lott said she was stranded

in the city with nowhere to stay. She was fortunate enough to find a few people who opened up their hotel room to her and other stranded strangers for the night.

At that point the information she was getting was still somewhat skewed because of the chaos of the night, she said.

There was a lot of miscommunication between news outlets and officials who were able to report on the incident. “I think that the only thing I keep remembering about that night is being scared and confused. I was scared because nobody knew what was going on,” Lott said.

“I know that most of the

protestors thought that because of where the shooting happened, it happened at the front of crowd, a lot of people initially thought that the cops opened fire on the protest.”

Lott said she admits she also thought the cops opened fire on them, until she saw officers running towards where they thought the shooting was coming from. It was not until later she found out someone not involved with the protest was firing on them and police officers.

Speaking at a memorial service Tuesday, Dallas Police Chief David Brown commended the officers that were killed.

“And there’s no greater

love than this,” Brown said.

“That these five men gave their lives for all of us.”

According to ABC News, three out of the five officers killed had their funerals Wednesday – Officer Brent Thompson, Sr. Cpl. Lorne Ahrens and Sgt. Michael Smith. The funerals for the remaining officers will be today for Officer Michael Krol and Saturday for Patrick Zamarripa.

“I believe in this instance the only thing that I can really say is that people need to remember that we are all human,” Lott said.

“We all bleed the same blood, despite our differences we are all the same.” @MichaelCantuDT

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Train did not heed stop signal in deadly wreck DALLAS (AP) — A train failed to heed a stop signal before it barreled head-on into another freight train last month in the Texas Panhandle, killing three, according to a preliminary federal report released Thursday.

An eastbound BNSF Railway train failed to slow at

a yellow warning signal on June 28 and then continued past a red stop signal before striking an oncoming BNSF train, inspectors for the National Transportation Safety Board said in the report.

The eastbound train, bound for Chicago, was supposed to stop and allow the Los

Angeles-bound train to pass.

It was traveling just over 60 mph when it passed the yellow signal, though trains are not supposed to travel any faster than 40 mph at a yellow signal so that they can stop in time at a red signal. The train was traveling about 65 mph when it passed the stop signal.

Ginsburg apologizes for ‘ill-advised’ criticism of Trump WASHINGTON (AP) — Conceding her outspoken criticism of Donald Trump was “ill advised,” Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg apologized Thursday in an effort to quiet mounting complaints that she improperly crossed a line into partisan politics.

Promising to be more discreet in the future, the leader of the court’s liberal wing said in a statement that judges should not comment on candidates for any public office.

“On reflection, my recent remarks in response to press inquiries were illadvised and I regret making them,” the 83-year-old justice said.

Ginsburg told The Associated Press last week that she did not want to think about the prospect of the Republican winning the presidency over Democrat Hillary Clinton. She escalated her criticism in subsequent media interviews, including calling Trump a “faker” who “really has an ego,” in a CNN interview.

Dallas not the city portrayed in media Dallas is not broken.

The picture news outlets around the country are painting is not what is actually happening in the city where five law enforcement officers were killed on July 7.

Dallas is a strong place filled with strong people, and the senseless act of violence by one man is not going to bring them down. But that is what the rest of the country it seeing on their TV screens.

I have called Dallas the surrounding cities home for almost all of my life and I have never seen this much support and love from my city.

People are coming from all over the Metroplex to grieve with the Dallas Police Department and offer support.

McKenzi Morris is The DT’s Editorin-Chief and a junior public relations major from Allen.

A lot of this confusion about the city of Dallas being torn apart comes from the fact that people forget the protest that took place before the shooting was peaceful.

Officers were interacting with protesters and doing everything in their power to make sure they were safe and taken care of, even stopping traffic along their route.

Because the people involved with the Black Lives Matter movement did not

take to the streets with the intent to hurt anyone, especially officers, they are hurting too. They feared for their lives on that fateful night, just like the police officers protecting them did.

The police officers of Dallas are not known for being brutal cops that target innocent people. In fact, the number of complaints against police officers in the city has gone down in recent years. So the fact that this was the city hit with the kind of violence astounds me. But there could not be a better city to watch rise from the ashes and take on new life.

Dallas has not dealt with a tragedy like this since a president was assassinated

in almost the same area. But that does not mean we do not know how to cope with bad situations. Sticking together is something Dallas does best and that is what is actually happening in the city right now.

Together Dallas is strong and will not be defeated, but the media does not want to tell you that.

People of completely different backgrounds, races and political affiliations are coming together to support their city and their officers.

They want to be there for

one another and they want to help rebuild a city known for standing tall.

Dallas mayor Mike Rawlings said it best during the memorial service on Tuesday for the five officers who lost their lives.

“We will mourn together, and together is the key word here. We may be sad, but we will not dwell in self-pity. We may weep, but we will never whine. For we have too much work to be done. We have too many bridges to build that we will cross together,” Rawlings said.

The people of the city are standing up and showing the world we are stronger together than apart. The media is not showing you that because

who likes a story about people getting along and not throwing things at each other.

Dallas is a prime example that if people come together, all the issues facing our nation becomes much less severe and a lot of the violence will start to fade away. This may be a naïve outlook on the situation, but if one of the major U.S. cities can do it, the rest of the nation should be able to.

The media will tell you that Dallas is going to crumble and violence will eventually take over the city, but they are wrong.

Together Dallas is strong and will not be defeated, but the media does not want to tell you that. @McKenziMorrisDT

Feds ask judge to toss case about Olympics snooping claim SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The National Security Agency asked a judge Thursday to dismiss a lawsuit from a former Salt Lake City mayor who says the agency conducted a mass warrantless surveillance program during the 2002 Winter Olympics.

The NSA argues the

claims are implausible speculation about a program that may never have existed, but the government faced pointed questions from U.S. District Judge Robert Shelby.

Sanders has book deal, will reflect on campaign NEW YORK (AP) — Just days after ending his campaign and endorsing Hillary Clinton for president, Sen. Bernie Sanders is preparing to take his message to the printed page.

Thomas Dunne Books told The Associated Press on Thursday it will publish Sanders’ “Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In.” The book is scheduled to come out Nov. 15, a week after election day. It will include both his policy ideas for the future and reflections on his surprisingly strong run in the primaries.

The 74-year-old Sanders, an independent from Vermont who caucuses with Democrats in the Senate, attracted millions of voters with his blunt rhetoric and progressive agenda of raising taxes on the rich, overhauling campaign financing and providing universal health care and free college education.

“Bernie Sanders quickly became the leader of the progressive movement within the Democratic Party,” Dunne said in a statement.
