MUPD investigating racist poster displayed on public light pole

Marquette University is aware that a racist poster was found displayed on a public light pole on campus along Wisconsin Ave., and it has been removed. As a Catholic, Jesuit institution, we are called to build a nurturing, inclusive community where all people feel safe, supported, welcomed and celebrated. Racism and discrimination have no place on our campus.

The Marquette University Police Department has launched an investigation to determine the parties responsible. Although this poster was found on our campus, at this time we do not know who is responsible for posting it. Please contact MUPD at 414-288-6800 if you have information about this incident.

UPDATE: MUPD investigation of stickers on public light poles

Yesterday evening, MUPD removed a second 4x6-inch sticker with a different image from a public light pole on Wisconsin Avenue near Johnston Hall. The second sticker – which also appears to be a historical drawing and may be related to the first sticker – depicts a Caucasian female in a medieval device meant to prevent speech. Without a suspect at this time, the university cannot speculate on the meaning or intent behind the images, or if the person responsible is a member of the Marquette community. MUPD has inspected all campus light poles and no other stickers have been found. Officers will continue to search for a suspect and monitor for suspicious behavior. Please contact MUPD at 414-288-6800 if you have any information.

Any word if the woman portrayed was Armenian, Georgian, or Azerbaijani?  Inquiring minds want to know.

For anyone who is too dim to get it — they were stickers highlighting the current political movements to silence blacks and women, like in the colonial era. Called "metaphor," if you skipped your Lit pre-reqs. Keep us posted.

I assume 4ever was celebrating this
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Is that like Colt .45?    The verse is irrelevant without chapter.

If I were you, I would refresh yourself on the whole 'not bearing false witness' thing.

You gave what I have to guess is a bible verse.   You gave it incompletely.   Yes, I judged you on your inability to properly quote the bible.   Just like I have formed an opinion about you based on your conspiracy theories and snake oil promotion. 
And I have a few friends named Jack.

Not to mention that Luke only has 24 chapters.

Pretty good work here.  Ellipses, air quotes and a complete misunderstanding of what you're discussing.  No shots at the media or liberals, however, means only an 8.

There are certain parameters I look for in his work but the scale is flexible depending on the irrationality of the post in question

Then why put "inspirational" in quotes?
