Newly crowned Miss Teen USA is from Tomball...and used to drop the "N" bomb pretty casually

    The internet never forgets

    Background info: twitter was already relatively upset that the finalists were...err..."homogenous"

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">These are your TOP 5 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MissTeenUSA?src=hash">#MissTeenUSA</a> contestants! <a href="https://t.co/qi3KJT6COb">pic.twitter.com/qi3KJT6COb</a></p>&mdash; Karlie Hay (@MissTeenUSA) <a href="https://twitter.com/MissTeenUSA/status/759561553423142914">July 31, 2016</a></blockquote>

    But the s*** truly hit the fan when the winner's old tweets were unearthed.

    FWIW, she was 14 at the time and I don't believe she is racist. However, there is definitely something wrong with the casual use of such a hateful word.

    Some are truly hurt and others are using this to be outrage at yet another thing.

    Meh, we have a president who used to casually use the same word when he was growing up. I don't see a reason to freak out about it unless there is some evidence she actually did something wrong or is legitimately racist.

    I swear people just try to their best to be upset about everything now a days, isn't it a bit tiring.

    All the effort to dig up old tweets from when she was a 14 year old, because she won a teen pageant that's about looking like a real life barbie doll. Time and outrage should really be saved for something much more meaningful than this my *****s

    Well she spelled it with an "er" so that is alarming. Is he had spelled it '*****s' not so much, maybe.

    I find it disappointing that our culture still cares so much about things like beauty pageants.
