The Miss World America organization is under fire after stripping a President Donald Trump–supporting model of her Miss Michigan title over “racist, Islamophobic, and insensitive” tweets.
Kathy Zhu, 20, is a University of Michigan student who won the 2019 Michigan World America title on Sunday. However, her reign was cut short after organizers became aware of Zhu’s controversial Twitter account days later.
........................
“Your social media accounts contain offensive, insensitive and inappropriate content,” DeLaurie wrote. “Therefore, and effective immediately, MWA does not recognize you as a participant of any sort or in any capacity as it relates to any and all events of MWA.”
Zhu claimed that the decision was made on the basis of her refusal to try on a hijab in 2018 — something that sparked controversy amongst her fellow University of Central Florida students on World Hijab Day on campus — as well as over her tweets about black gun violence.
Trump-supporting Miss Michigan stripped of title over ‘racist’ tweets
So here we have another example of out of control intolerance by liberals who strip Miss Michigan of her title for nothing more than having a different viewpoint than themselves. I can't even fathom what will happen if these people get in power as the thought police will make sure you have no freedom of thought or expression if it doesn't strictly adhere to their worldview.
And yet these people claim we're fascists? Good grief.
Got a quote of her Tweets about black gun violence? I couldn't find one in your link.
Hmm, so your title says "for being conservative", but the article says "for racist tweets"...
are you admitting that conservatives are generally racist?
In a text exchange posted online, a beauty pageant organizer also raised concerns with an October 2017 tweet by Zhu, who wrote: “Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community first before blaming others.”
Zhu told The News she had posted that tweet in response to social media claims that “all cops are bad cops, all cops were killing blacks,” an explanation she was not able to provide pageant organizers.
“It wasn’t anything about blaming blacks specifically for violence,” said Zhu, who was born in China and raised in Florida. “I mean, every community has problems within it. I just shined light on that particular issue because of a subtweet of someone else.”
In an email exchange that Zhu published on Twitter, Miss World America state director Laurie DeJack told her that her social media accounts contain “offensive, insensitive and inappropriate content” in violation of pageant rules and conditions.
I'd love to see them myself.

You're free to join the Klan if you want but don't expect to represent Michigan. I hope she straightens herself out or she'll have a hard time finding a good job.
By the way, what she said is exactly what you hear Klan members say.
On Thursday, Muslim American students at the University of Central Florida held a “Try a Hijab” event to celebrate World Hijab Day on campus. Kathy Zhu, known as “Political Kathy” online for her conservative views and student at UCF, happened to walk by.
One of the students asked Zhu whether she wanted to try on a hijab. She declined and posted her thoughts on Twitter.

Shortly after, a Muslim student who happened to be in Zhu’s photo took to Twitter blasting her for taking a photo of her without her consent.
She also called for people to email UCF faculty to get Kathy expelled.
Zhu fired back at the student, saying that UCF is a public campus and she has a right to take photos. She also noted that declining to try on the hijab is not grounds for expulsion.
1) UCF is a public campus, meaning I can take pictures of anything, especially a public RSO group.
2) I took three pictures, you asked me if I want to wear this scarf of oppression, I politely declined, said thank you, and headed to class.
3) trying to get me expelled for what?

Apparently being conservative means being a racist idiot.
She asked "Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community first before blaming others." What she other idiot racists don't realize that for every ethnic group they are most likely to be killed by someone in their own ethnic group. So, her little factoid is meaningless since it applies to all ethnic groups. You're most likely to be killed by a friend or family member.
Since she's a Trump supporter maybe she should follow Trump's advice and go fix the problems in China like her cult leader suggests.
I'm simply wondering why you chose to draw that particular conclusion, when that wasn't implied. Seems like you're aware there is a trend among conservatives, and are really close to admitting it. That's the first stop of fixing a problem, man.
One should never be punished for saying something factual, unless they are sworn to secrecy and such an utterance violates that bond
In a report released Thursday titled Race and Hispanic Origin of Victims and Offenders, 2012-2015, the DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics found that a majority of most violent crimes are committed by people who are the same race as their victims. Indeed, the rate of white-on-white violent crime, it found, is about four times the rate of black-on-white crime.
...
Moreover, it explained, “the rate of white-on-white violent crime (12.0 per 1,000) was about four times higher than black-on-white violent crime (3.1 per 1,000). The rate of black-on-black crime (16.5 per 1,000) was more than five times higher than white-on-black violent crime (2.8 per 1,000). The rate of Hispanic-on-Hispanic crime (8.3 per 1,000) was about double the rate of white-on-Hispanic (4.1 per 1,000) and black-on-Hispanic (4.2 per 1,000) violent crime.”
Do you consider this racist?
Did you know the majority of black deaths are caused by other blacks? Fix problems within your own community first before blaming others.”

It is impossible for her to be racist as she does not represent the majority power, maybe in 20 years or so when China takes over we can revisit this conversation.
It's a meaningless fact. Her conclusion does not follow from the fact. For all ethnicities, you are far far more likely to be killed by someone of your own race.

I hope you learned something new.

This sort of attitude represents what is wrong this country. And I am sure if someone was fired for say supporting gay rights or ANTIFA, people like you would be screaming "fascism"
