JUST IN | Bishop Snyder High School releases a statement following the arrests of two students accused of making threats toward an African American student.

The two Bishop Snyder students arrested — who News4JAX is not naming because of their age — are each facing one count of making written threats to kill or do bodily injury — a second-degree felony.that alleged racist comments had surfaced, along with threats on social media, against the only African American student on Bishop Snyder’s baseball team.

“My family has been targeted and it’s one of the most challenging things we’re facing right now,” a post reads. “The threats made on my son and our family have been overwhelming to say the least. I pray everyone remains safe and Bishop Snyder does the right thing, because racism is not a joke. If we don’t stand for something we will fall for anything!”

“We’ve gone to the school before about the inappropriate behavior because my son is African American. I also have another son there, too. Of course, he had a situation, as well. We have contacted the school at least three times about the inappropriate language and inappropriate behavior toward my sons,” said Corker Wimberly, whose younger son was the target of the threats.“I empathize with the parents. Kids do crazy things, but for every action, there is a reaction.

“And threat is a magic term. People have to generally have the present ability to carry out the result of a suggestion that they make,” Reep said. Yazdiya goes on to say, “Each disciplinary matter is reviewed individually and handled through our disciplinary process. It would be inappropriate to discuss the matters of any student, but we can say the students in question will not be returning to Bishop Snyder High School.”

Racist parents make racist kids. And if you don't think this is racist, like Eric here, then try seeing life outside of your peak highschool days.

Geez, imagine if I would’ve screamed in my high school for the black kids picking on me that we’re still friends with sheltering, your baby put your big boy pants on
