Women’s college loses it when Hillary Clinton loses election

When Republican Donald Trump was elected president last week, the intelligent, determined young women of Converse College – along with their esteemed instructors – lost their minds.

They posted video of themselves crying on Snapchat. They walked around campus in tears, and the administration set up “safe zones” where students weren’t allowed to discuss the election results.

One of my professors pushed back a midterm “given recent upsetting events,” and students planned to organize “silent protests” on Thursday.

President of the college made a decent explanation of warning faculty.

Too bad we can’t send those idiots back in time, to the World Trade Center on 9/11. I think they’d find it a bit worse.

The student was given the option of conformity and surrendering freedom of vote or facing banishment from the society of the classroom.

What options.

When do they study the New Blacklisting in that class?

“The student was given an opportunity to leave the class and chose to do so.” A teacher is in a position of authority. How is “being given an opportunity to leave the class “ by a teacher not tantamount to being thrown out?

About two hundred people leapt to their deaths to escape from being burned to death in the World Trade Center. How many jumped on November 8 & 9 to escape from Trump? How many have even left for Canada or Jupiter after promising they would?

Since she hasn’t offered a rebuttal, guess that’s what happened.
