The North Carolina NAACP wants North Carolina State University to expel four students accused of painting racist messages about President-elect Obama on campus.
School Chancellor James Oblinger held a closed-door meeting Wednesday with NAACP President Rev. William Barber to discuss the graffiti in the campus free expression tunnel.
Barber wants an official response within 48 hours. Oblinger says both sides have agreed to move forward.
Four students admitted spray-painting the messages, including one that used a racial slur and suggested shooting Obama in the head.
Officials have said the unidentified students won't face criminal charges because the writing wasn't a hate crime since it was written on a wall where free speech is encouraged.

i think that we should elect someone else for president
The NAACP is needed now more than ever. Have you read these posts? If you think these people go into their everyday lives and treat all people as equals you are wrong. Oppression because of race still exists. I think more people should get involved in the NAACP instead of complaining. If these people think it is all right to even suggest shooting our next president in the head we have a long way to go.
I think it is time for the NAACP to disjoin as a group. It is out dated and is now pointless. Now, Barack Obama will be out president. Why keep bringing more complaints. Together, Yes, We Can. That is all we need. Stop being negative. We need to be positive that the future will bring HOPE for our youth. The USA will be a better country when the young generation take over... no more hatered and racism. All parents...bring fairness and hope for your children.
