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.”

A tramatized academic community? Producing yet another batch of students who are permanently unemployable?

These five decided this sticky was a crime. Somebody from legal needs to help them before they do something really stupid that costs the college money.

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

Compulsary national service would be good but not in the military.

Thanks to Obama the military is already overloaded with worthless leftist pussies.

These kinds of mindless dabblers would be a danger to the brave men and women in harm's way.

Two years non-military service doing jobs like mucking out drainage ditches, and hauling trash and human waste out of the border infiltration routes, sanctuary cities and ghettos would be good for America and good for the leftist pussies themselves.

The investigation of the note is a hate crime against the 1st Amendment.
