Has anyone seen it?
The police offer who responded to the complaint put on his report that he saw it.
Really?
According to Billy Donley, the president of Mizzou’s Residence Halls Association (RHA), the poop swastika was reported at approximately 2:00 a.m. on October 24, 2015.
“On Saturday, October 24th, at 2:00am an individual came into one of the restrooms in Gateway Hall and drew a swastika on the wall with their own feces,” Donley wrote in a letter several days after the alleged incident. “This event happened while many students, including myself, were already asleep.”
Later in his letter, Donley noted that he only found out about the alleged vandalism incident “via a flyer posted on the walls” of the dorm.
Although Donley did not respond to repeated requests for comment prior to publication, The Federalist spoke with two RHA staffers while trying to get in touch with Donley. Neither had personally witnessed the poop swastika. When asked if there was any photographic evidence of the alleged incident, one staffer replied, “Not to my knowledge.”
Frankie Minor, the director of residential life at Mizzou, did not respond to repeated requests for comment on whether he personally saw the poop swastika or any photographic evidence of it.
The Federalist also attempted to contact Christian Basi, the associate director of the University of Missouri News Bureau, who previously told the Columbia Missourian on Oct. 30 that the incident had been immediately reported to Mizzou police. Basi did not respond to requests for comment prior to the publication of this article.
Calls to the University of Missouri Police Department, which responded to and investigated the alleged poop swastika incident, also failed to yield any evidence of the poopstika.
Maj. Brian Weimer, the public information officer for the Mizzou police department, told The Federalist that he also did not personally see the poop swastika that was reported to police. When asked if anyone in the police department personally witnessed the swastika, Maj. Weimer clammed up and referred all questions about the incident to the university’s custodian of public records.

How did this become a truther thing?
I asked the same thing in another thread. Why, of all things, would you assume a poop swastika is fake?
Because everybody puts a picture of the sandwich they're getting ready eat on the internet now days, but somehow, nobody took a photo of this? Seems unlikely.
If you heard that Aaron Rodgers pulled his groin would you demand to see it?

Nothing like using Reductio ad absurdum to make point.

Uh oh, I'm torn. Am I to believe the officer's report, or can I assume it's probably wrong like I usually do?
Ruling, IMCC?
That's more a question for IMCC.
Well, considering this incident caused a huge national rucus, AND everyone and their mother carry cellphones, why didn't ANYBODY take a photo of it. Why wasn't the restroom cordoned off and treated as a hate-crime scene?
Lots of questions but no answers and ZERO photographs of said poop swastika.
Ruling: Never happened. Incident was completely fabricated.

I love your reasoning. At the time, while the poop was on the wall, before the "rucus" was made, they should have potographed it because of the rucus it became.
Really I just love seeing you call law enforcement a liar. Love it.
Hey. Not all officers are upstanding citizens, but most are. This guy apparently isn't and got himself into a shit-storm.

I actually didn't mean to correct your spelling. I was insulting your post for completely different reasons.
Did they do any tests on the poop? Silly for the vandal to use their own poop on the off chance that CSI - Columbia tracks it back to them.

Nothing was done with the poop because there wasn't any. First thing you do at a "crime scene" is take photos. That's basic. None were taken.
Well that isn't true, beat cops rarely take photographs of the "scene", especially in things they think are fairly inconsequential. Every photo taken has to be logged and reported.
Hey, that's a great excuse. Are you a police union rep in your non-internet life?
Are the black lives matters activists now claiming to be jewish?
Far better ones can still be found on barns in rural America.That's a pretty piss-poor swastika.

Is it really that hard for you to believe there is rampant racism at Mizzou? Really?
Have you been to Missouri?
(I have. I have family there. I went to college there. I'm pretty sure that I could name 30 people who would be capable of any one of the things that has been reported, and they aren't the only ones.)
