Cancel culture punishes woman for something she said when she was 15

Yesterday I blogged about the leftist chief judge of Cook County, Illinois who wants to create a third branch of courts here, to cover young adults up to age 26, because their brains aren't fully developed until then. 

In Tennessee an 18-year-old woman, Mimi Groves, was accepted by the University of Tennessee--and added to its national championship cheelreading squad. But when a fellow high school student, Jimmy Galligan, spread a three-second Snapchat video from 2016 earlier this year, her offer to join the cheerleading squad was rescinded and she was compelled to back out of attending UT.

In that video Groves used the "N" word. 

She was 15. 

So 18-26-year-old criminals in Illinois, if Judge Evans gets his way, will presumably get softer treatment from a new court system, but 15-year-olds can't be forgiven for foolishness. 

No one is defending Groves' used of the "N" word and she has apologized.

Her life has been harmed, maybe irreparably, by the cancel culture mob because of something, not criminal by the way, that she uttered when she legally still a child. 

Society has taken a dark turn.
