Watch her get out in a year and be invited to go on the Republican lecture circuit to talk about how woke politics is ruining American college campuses.
This isn't a joke, I seriously think this will happen.
She's pretty and blond and an idiot. She'll be on Fox News as a host shortly after.
The woke liberals are trying to cancel her for the innocent act of being a racist asshole who assaulted a black woman! They're out of control!
All that hideousness and just gets a year of jail and 100 hours of community service. Fucking Kentucky pantywaist conservative judge.
Imagine saying the n-word 100 times in an assault on someone and only being halfway done. 😬
how long was the assault? That's like dozens of hard Rs per minute. What a psycho.
I imagine it was a lot of 'ga's too.
Those are all the stifled n-words shes been holding back thus far in her brief lifespan thus far. They all came out at once
When is she gonna be invited to headline a Trump rally?
How was this not elevated to a hate crime? That sentance is weak sauce for a racially motivated attack
That is apparently determined at sentencing in Kentucky.

So blame the judge.
It's hard not to just be blunt here. She's a white girl. Sentencing guidelines and police protocols are different for people matching that description. It's a known, researched phenomenon.
It's not unreasonable to say that the police work for non-impoverished, non-overweight white women. It's noticeable in how quick white women are to call the police and think the police will help with a problem.
Statistically, you are roughly about 1000% more likely to experience police violence if you are not a white woman.
It's not really for being a white girl, it's just for being a girl.
Women get 63% lighter sentences for the same crimes as men ( https://academic.oup.com/aler/article-abstract/17/1/127/212179 ), while there is no racial gap between white and another race, whether among men, or women, that's even half that wide ( https://www.ussc.gov/research/research-reports/2023-demographic-differences-federal-sentencing ).
Her being white is most certainly a factor. Racial judicial bias is definitely a thing. When you add in gender judicial bias you end with a tap on the wrist for a most egregious crime.
The first article doesn't primarily address racial disparities within the context of gender. The second one, which does, notes pronounced leniency for white women vs. women of other races. As a woman, you are between 12-30% less likely to receive probation instead of incarceration if you aren't white. Where things were roughly equal is if you are being incarcerated, which is more likely if you're not white as noted above, you are likely to get a roughly equivalent period of incarceration for an equivalent crime. All of these outcomes will be significantly worse if you're a man.

Can you now address their bizarre assertion that the police only work for slim people?
Most broader social biases translate into higher rates of police violence, albeit not always evenly. Weight bias in society is a fairly well-established phenomenon. It translating into an increased risk of police violence hardly seems a stretch.
Your best chance of a low-risk encounter with the police and a favorable outcome in the justice system is to be a slim, upper-middle-class, college-educated white woman. If you only get to choose one, as the commenter above noted, choose woman.
Anyone else getting serious larval-stage-Marjorie-Taylor-Greene vibes from this mug shot or just me?

You know they say that drinking alcohol kind of reveals who you are inside. Well we now know who she really is. The assault confirms that.

Interesting that the Independent made sure to mention that this student was drunk not once, but twice, as if that were an excuse.
No one says that word when drunk if they wouldn't be willing to say it out loud in certain company.
Her being drunk is relevant to reporting the truth. They're not excusing her actions but giving context. As you pointed out, she may never have said these slurs in her open life, but she was probably thinking them and alcohol greased the wheels on her racism.
That's some serious grease. To go from zero n-words sober to two hundred times drunk?

200 times?
Over the course of 10 minutes. That means she said it about every 3 seconds...
Good. I remember seeing that video back when this all happened and she’s a vile piece of shit.
I'm very confused here. She is white, pretty, and went before a Kentucky Judge. How was she sentenced to anything?
~/s~
How rich is her father?
You're asking the right questions. Not rich enough, apparently
I guess he was rich enough for 150 slurs, but she had to cross the limit.

3 words: national media attention
It's like 4 minutes of straight up repeating the n-word. Besides her racism, how fucked up she was to vomit out that long of a manifesto?

Naggers?
Who counted the N words
I suppose it might have been videoed.
Hopefully lawyers that can fine her separately for each and every one.
can you get fined for saying a word in a country with the first amendment? how dumb is this even if what she did was wrong its not illegal to say the N word. The assault however she should get in legal trouble for.
The N word proves it was racially motivated.
Probably not, but I would love to see this somehow turned into part of the assault since that barrier was broken here thus making her actions criminal.

However, Spring said after the plea hearing that she did not believe Rosing was remorseful.
Yeah, I can look at that mugshot and tell she's not. Glad (and surprised) she got actual punishment.
Edit: I'm making the assumption that's the reflection of a bright orange jumper I see at the bottom of the photo, and the typical blandly colored cinderblock wall in the background.
The smug satisfaction of someone who knows she has a career as a Fox News anchor or Repub politician on lock.
That is the sort of smug little smirk that says, "that n- deserved what she got." No remorse at all.

She basically got off without any real punishment.
She got expelled, has no degree, and will be found out for life when applying for work. Jail time is the least of her concerns.
