Sorry, but a totally safe space is actually impossible. A student at Harvard University published an op-ed on Wednesday complaining that her schools safe spaces are just not safe enough. According to Madison E. Johnson, her time spent in the safe space was really great at first there were massage circles, deep conversations, and times explicitly delineated for processing and journaling. But then it all changed.

PJ Media said, "A nation of wusses....raise children never to risk any psychic or physical damage. They are bubble wrapped, physically and mentally."
So, after reading the article, it seems that the blame belongs with fellow Liberals, who have not been checking their various privileges and dropping some N-bombs, but mostly not checking privileges. And dropping N-bombs.
Blam, blam, blam.
Hey Karl, you have a (#$%(#gun that wouldn't stop a bunny. You need to go full .45.

Psssssst...hey Madison, we don’t care.
You think, child?
Good for her. The first step in ridding herself of her narcissism is to first recognize that she is a narcissist.
It’s all a stupid waste of time. Whoever plays around with this is on the loser track. Don’t pay any attention to this stuff.
... massage circles, deep conversations, and times explicitly delineated for processing and journaling.
...somewhere they can be themselves without being judged...
...try really hard not to say anything obviously prejudiced.
...a safe space is one in which I feel that I can express all aspects of my identity without feeling that any one of those aspects will get me (including, but not limited to) judged, fired, marginalized, attacked, or killed,
What does ANY of that crap have to do with being SAFE?
ya... I threw up a little in my mouth just reading the first paragraph...
Safe spaces, where one can express themselves without fear of judgement or Retribution. Let us see how safe they are if I start a discussion about global warming armed with almost 2 decades of science and graphs and charts, and other information. I will guarantee at first I will suffer unprecedented verbal abuse, and if I ignored it and continued to calmly show charts, I would begin to suffer physical abuse, then the coup de gras would occur when the police would then be called on me, and I would be off to face trial for spreading hate
Yeah. I mean, the pResident DID go to Harvard (or so we’re told).
You use a 9mm and admit it in public. Are you going to come out as gay too?
To be fair though, it's okay to practice with a 9mm, since the ammo isn't worth having anyways.
Back when my kids were very little, I let them practice with a 9mm since they could handle the kick with one hand and hold a pacifier with the other.
How'd I do on 9mm bullying?
I can easily understand that someone shooting that girly 9mm would need a “safe” place to hide ;)

Madison needs to be dropped off in the ‘hood. See if she can find a “safe place” there.
Ah, there in lies part of the problem.
That, and the column was published on April Fool's Day.
I read the (22 Crimson) comments. Maybe two support that writer, the rest come down hard or mention the date.
IMHO, the racist radical black lesbian special snowflake should crawl back into her mother's womb.
This girl needs to be in McClean Hospital, not Harvard.

HUH?
