"To everyone who is sending all of these negative post around about Dwayne O'Rear you might want to think about yourselves. Whether you believe these post are due to hacking or whether you believe Dwayne actually posted them we all have dirt on us, something we look back saying "man I wish I would have kept my mouth shut" or "I wish I would have worded that better." For most of us it comes down to much worse things than some post on facebook that we wish we would have done differently. However look at how Dwayne is responding. He is moving forward and saying what his plans are once he WINS the election. He is not going around bashing his opponents with negative or slanderous allegations from their past. And just knowing that I would respect this man way more than I respect any one of the people who are coming down on him. If anyone else is perfect please feel free to keep taking shots at Dwayne. There was only one man who was perfect and his name was Jesus. So for the rest of us just move forward. Instead of trying to win by running a negative campaign against your opponent try running a positive campaign for yourself. I respect Dwayne for the way he has handled this situation and he will get my vote - Tyler Wooten"

Yes I'm sure he has instantaneously completely reversed his views on every issue because that was the past and he is a changed person rather than to support a political campaign.

"

I’ve been tossing and turning in my sleep since Student Body President campaigns began — I just couldn’t decide who to vote for. But in light of recent news, I now know who to not not vote for: Dwayne O’Rear. Facebook comments and tweets by O’Rear dating back to November 2010 inspired the ire of the student body. Despite this, I am supporting Mr. O’Rear.

If one thing is clear, it’s that Dwayne O’Rear plays the long game. And I don’t mean “long game” like when he was on the football team for one year — longer than that. Think about it. Since 2010, Dwayne has been wooing the voting groups that are usually ignored by politicians: homophobes, Islamophobes and sexists — otherwise known as the “intolerance trifecta.” He’s just one racial slur away from an endorsement from Jake Knotts (former S.C. governor candidate who called his opponent, Nikki Haley, a raghead because of her Indian heritage in 2010).

Readers, it’s not news that I am staunchly opposed to gay people. Just thinking about two guys loving each other gets my blood boiling. But just to be clear, I don’t think about gay men a lot — that would be gay. I only think about it when I hate them … and that’s all the time.

So it would only make sense that I support Dwayne for SBP because of his — now viral — O’Rear queer smear (not to mention the rhyming opportunities his name provides). On Nov. 15, 2010, O’Rear posted on his Facebook, “Just saw two dudes hug and kiss each other in the quad. Helllllllllll no!!!”

It didn’t stop there. Another post read, “To the cute girls always with the gay guy: get yourself a real man.”

Exactly, Dwayne.

Gay men are not real men — they’re a threat to O’Rear’s masculinity because women would rather be with them. And, ladies, you’re missing out. If anyone knows how to treat a woman right, it’s Dwayne.

How do I know? Twitter.

Last month Dwayne sent a concerned tweet to ESPN asking why a female commentator was covering our game against UNC-Chapel Hill. Dwayne’s not sexist, he probably just thinks a female reporter would have been more comfortable in her environment: folding laundry in the kitchen while preparing dinner. So, ladies, if you want a traditional man who assumes your needs are his wants, get on the Dwayne train.

But there’s one more reason I support Dwayne in addition to his coming out on Facebook as anti-gay. Like myself, Dwayne struggles with his own identity. I don’t need to explain to you how being an Arab-American can cause internal conflict. I love the United States of America. I bleed red, but I feel blue when I realize I’m not white. And the last time I became aware of my non-whiteness was while reading Dwayne’s use of the term “raghead” in a Facebook thread.

I was happy to see Dwayne seems to share some of that confusion. In November 2010, WRAL filmed a story about the “black out” at the Free Expression Tunnel in which African-American students blocked the tunnel to protest hate speech in it. O’Rear, who appears in the video, said, “If white people went down there … and didn’t let black people through, we’d be [called] racist.”



My initial reaction was probably similar to yours: “Wait a minute — has anyone told Dwayne O’Rear he’s half-black yet?” But it all makes sense in the context of his pre-SBP election work. O’Rear is making an appeal to the oft-overlooked minority — Islamophobic, homophobic and sexist white males.

It’s a bold move no SBP candidate has dared to try before, and if I had to guess why, I’d say it’s because there are gay students, Muslims and women on campus. If you’re not one of those three, then the choice is clear — vote O’Rear.

The sad part is that there is surely a large group of less vocal people who will vote for him in support of his statements rather than in spite of them. If O'Rear wins it really is yet another negative social commentary on the NCSU student body.

It is atypical. I'd like to know why you feel otherwise.

I think it's atypical, but I also think there's a not-insignificant portion of the student population who feels similarly.

Whether or not its atypical of the average male NCSU is one thing, but to post this shit and then try to defend yourself by saying that you used to leave your Facebook account up in your dorm and your phone has no password is one of the absolute worst things he could've done. Guy shot himself in the foot before he even started to consider running for student body president and has been his own worst enemy since people starting posting screenshots of stuff he's said in the past.

So here he mentions how past comments don't reflect how he currently feels on his campaign page yet he denies making the comments.

There's probably lots of college students who legitimately hate gays coming in, then change their minds.

He hasn't backed away from the other disgusting comments though, and racism is something you're supposed to know not to post on Facebook before college.

Remember that time Obama spouted off about how gays should all be sent to prison camps before rambling off a bunch of drunken racial slurs and said all Muslims were terrorist, then denied the holocaust?

Go ahead and roll your eyes all Politicians change their stance on things when it benefits them politically thus the pictures of O'Rear handing out LGBT Diversity shirts.

You are right he hasn't distanced himself from Islamaphobia and sexism. He still has Zero chance of winning, not that SBP actually does anything, remember the Pirate Captain?

^^he said something in that video up there about how if white people linked arms at the entrance of the tunnel and didn't let black people in then "we" would be called racist. btw, I think he missed the point of what was happening.
