Geez, that reads like a POW apologizing for his nations acts of aggression.
Stephen Leacock, the humorist (author of "Gertrude the Governess" and many other classic essays), was an administrator at McGill for many years (he died in 1944). I wonder how he would react to such nonsense.
You couldn’t pay me to go to 99.9% of colleges today. They are idiot-filled cesspools.
Micro-aggression? It’s not even a femto-aggression.
The student should have said, “I’m criticizing his white half....his hippy-dippy white momma.”
His forced recantation sounds identical to the recantations the communists forced out of prisoners in the gulags in Soviet Union, China, Cuba, North Korea, East Germany before shooting them in the head.
Very, very scary indeed.
My only slim hope is that McGill student Brian Farnan was having fun at their expense by writing this drivel and laughing uproariously within.
They don't recognize that they do have that right...as we are headed in the same direction
Gee - a violent temper tantrum being acknowledged shines a bad light on Blacks who have violent temper tantrums and it's a problem not because Blacks throw violent temper tantrums, but because some folks notice and let others in on the info. I guess that goes right along with protecting sexual predators because it's not their fault so much as it is the victim's fault for complaining...
Somewhere I still have a copy of a computer game based on throwing shoes at W. The player controls bush and gains points by avoiding shoes coming at him. It’s actually pretty fun.
But I get your larger point about the double-standard between the two presidents.
Normal people lost. Marxism won. If you’re White you have no rights.
Anti-racism has devolved to being anti-white. So the minority group racists pull out all kinds of garbage to justify their anti-white behavior
When McGill, once a Canadian leading center of academic excellence devolves to the point of punishing a student for emailing a picture of Obama in a snit, said university has devolved into a leading university in Kancukistan.
There is no freedom of speech in Canada or England. I am reminded of China during the Cultural Revolution when out of favor officials sat with dunce hats on their heads and had to confess to all their “crimes.” Canada and the UK are very close to that point, even with Conservative PMs who have done NOTHING to roll back the PC tide.
From Snopes:
This clip is one of a number of spoof video comedy bits
featuring famous people (with President Obama being a frequent subject) which comedian Jay Leno inserted into his Tonight Show monologues during his tenure as host of that venerable late-night talk show. The clip in its original context had Leno deadpanning that “President Obama’s body language is pretty subtle,” and the following video shows how the original clip was altered to produce the comedic “door-kicking” version:
Does Canada have free speech rights? Apparently not. They can now be considered to be part and parcel Commies.

What’s wrong w/saying. “I’m sorry I’m not able to control the way some people interrupt things as.... what’s in their own hearts is the way they interpret. They see things with ‘what they have within them’. Perhaps I need a course or two in mind control. “
Yes, it was an excellent non-apology apology. Indeed, it was smugly satirical.

For heaven’s sake,ANYONE who died in 1944 and came back would think they were in an alternate universe.
The world has gone stark,raving mad.
