Message mocking Trump trauma investigated as 'hate crime'
Campus Reform ^ | Victoria Stroup

A message mocking students for grieving over Donald Trump’s election victory is being investigated as a hate crime at Edgewood College.

According to a letter sent out by Vice President for Student Development Tony Chambers, a student at the college started a campaign to let students and others express their feelings about the outcome of the election by placing notes on a table in the commons.

One note—bearing the phrase “Suck it up, pussies!”—was placed on the inside window of the Office of Student Diversity and Inclusion, eliciting outrage within the traumatized academic community.

“A great deal of fear, sadness, and anger among students, faculty, and staff resulted, especially for those that gather in the [office space],” Chamber asserted. “The message was hateful and harmful toward members of our community. It violated every value that this institution considers to be at its core.”

In response to the incendiary note, staff from the student conduct, human resources, Title IX, and diversity offices were brought together so they could decide how to respond to the “hateful message.”

According to Chambers, “the group determined that the message constituted a Hate Crime, based on guidelines from the Jeanne Clery Act and state law.”

This is madness. Does this so-called “college” receive federal funds?

But let the snowflakes verbally attack Trump supporters, and that is protected speech.

Rommel could have held them off with an iPhone, Twitter and Instagram.

Nonsense, for something to be a “hate crime” there must be an actual, underlying crime. Speech is not a crime.

based on guidelines from the Jeanne Clery Act

Summary: Under the Act, institutions must provide survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking

Funny, I don't see a sticky note fitting into those categories.

We racist Nazis are supposed to have thicker skins, while pussies are notoriously thin-skinned.

“Tuition and fees at Edgewood College are $25,590 without financial aid. With room, board, and other fees combined, total cost of attendance is $38,259.”

So, these morons are indebting themselves and/or their families to the tune of almost $160K. Wonder how well they do in lining up jobs afterward?

It wasn’t all that long ago (about 8 years or so) that when trite like this was published one would check to make sure it wasn’t Apr 1, or look for satire or sarc or spoof tag.

Since the election of the messiah that was going to UNITE this country and the world as it never has been, we now get in ‘trouble’ for thoughts.

It used to be a joke saying one was ‘feared’ of the thought police.

Since this BO crap started, ALL races are poles apart, larger gap between sexes, status, designated ‘hate speech if one disagrees with a certain class, sex or breed.

SUCK IT UP PUSSIES should become the Battle Cry, along with
PAYBACKS ARE HELL.

Whatever we did to God is sure coming back to hurt us big time.

Then again what can we expect from an organization that gives one beaucoup weeks of unemployment ‘insurance’, have the person NOT look for work then when his time ‘runs out’, allow the person to collect SS because of the trauma he suffered because of the indignation of drawing unemployment insurance for beaucoup weeks....

AND THE BEAT GOES ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It makes perfect sense when you understand their ultimate goal is to be allowed to hit you for having unapproved ideas.

I really, really hope that this mensch is our new Secretary of Defence:

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil.
You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway.
So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them.
Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot.
It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you.
I like brawling."

Marine General James Mattis

Panel discussion in San Diego, California (1 February 2005) as quoted in "General: It's 'fun to shoot some people'" CNN (4 February 2005)(For a more contextualized explanation of General Mattis' remarks, see this essay by one of the Marines who served under Mattis: "Breaking the Warrior Code" The American Spectator (February 11, 2005) by John R. Guardiano

LOL….four words that express more truth than this pathetic excuse of a “university” has seen in 2016 and the P*****s have to convene FOUR PC agencies on campus to analyze this “hate speech, “ one agency per word. Incredibly, parents are paying big bucks to universities to change normal children into wusses.

Obviously it is long past time to bring back compulsory military service. Maybe bootcamp can cure some of these wussies and their professors.
