A Las Vegas high school student was caught on camera calling an African-American classmate a “f*cking n*gger” in a shockingly racist rant that went viral after someone on her school bus filmed the incident and posted it online.
Not much is known about the incident yet, but according to someone who tweeted the video — he says he’s a friend of the target of the slur — the black student who filmed the girl’s hateful ravings was punished for filming it. The person behind the camera was scheduled for a mandatory parent meeting — complete with suspension.
“A school in Vegas just rpcd a black kid for recording a Caucasian female calling him a “n*gger” on the bus,” the teen, who goes by “Key” on Twitter, wrote. “Any thoughts?”

Asked what “rpcd” means, he explained:
@yoongisblanket @goldenseoulss @FOX5Vegas Required parent conference suspension until the meeting

The girl can be heard saying that someone “is black but he makes himself look like a f*cking n*gger” before huffing and sitting back in her seat, turning away from the person filming. “Key” says that he does not wish to reveal the name of the school because he fears retaliation from the school for exposing what happened, adding that it “started when she said she was better than him because she’s white”:

One poster — a friendly white Trump supporter attempting to intimidate a former student of the school who commented on the video and apparently knows the girl — revealed that the students are from Shadow Ridge High School. We have redacted identifying information from her post:
Welcome to Trump’s America, where more and more people are deeming it acceptable to hurl racial slurs at minorities.
