Students spot, take down white supremacist signs at Texas A&M - Corpus Christi

Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi students took down at least 30 white supremacist propaganda posters spotted throughout campus Saturday.

One of the posters, which reads, "Rapeugees not welcome," mentions a profile on the social network site Gab. Gab is a micro-blogging service similar to Twitter that does not suspend or remove users' accounts for posting hate speech or offensive content.

A post with photos of the signs that were spotted at A&M-CC by students went up on the mentioned profile Saturday. The profile claims responsibility for posting the signs: "When the door is left open, @BorderStormers field team takes the opportunity to leave no stone unturned at Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi campus!”

Another Saturday post reads: "@BorderStormers Team performs this Activism service for the students of Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi campus ... Because we care about their future and Science!"
