The 10 craziest things that offended college students in 2016 (need lots of comfort dogs alert)
Campus Reform ^ | January 6, 2017

Posted on 01/08/2017 8:11:59 AM PST by Zakeet

If you thought college students would run out of things to be offended by, think again. This year, colleges deemed everything from America-themed parties to Santa Claus decorations problematic, proving that the perpetually aggrieved will never rest.

In anticipation of the new year, which is sure to bring new offenses, Campus Reform has compiled a list of the 10 most ridiculous things college students and administrators were offended by in 2016.

  1. Crucifix, "All Lives Matter" reported as 'hate incidents' at University of Wisconsin-Lacrosse

  2. University of North Carolina claims Christmas vacations, golf outings are microaggressions

  3. Rutgers: 'avoiding someone' is a microaggression

  4. Purdue: Pro-life flyers 'racist,' 'vile'

  5. America-themed BBQ 'considered offensive' at Ramapo College

  6. Florida State University display: Harambe costumes are cultural appropriation

  7. USC Prof bans the term 'illegal immigrants' on final exams

  8. 'Holiday,' 'evergreen trees' too religious for Texas Woman's University

  9. Emory student gov. pledges ‘emergency funds’ to help those ‘in pain’ over Trump chalking

  10. University of Virginia student: 'American' identity 'the most blatant microaggression'

You mean old microaggressing, culturally-insensitive conservatives might not want to say something hateful that causes the poor little snowflakes even more pain ...

We laugh at these morons, but these morons will be in the workforce and bring these beliefs with them.

It’s really anti-free speech where anything can be racist / sexist / whatever-phobic.

Colleges should be reduced to classes put online for viewing and shut down the liberal indoctrination factories.

“...these morons will be in the workforce...”

I doubt that.

When I was in school, we beat up a homo who was mouthing off at a bar and grabbing girl’s breasts — baffles me to this day why he cared about breasts...

I guess that qualifies as what? A mega aggression?

#3 is my favorite.
The snowflakes can macroagress everyone with their demands, but you’re not allowed to ignore them and just go about your own business. Oh no.

These are the folks who can’t understand why anyone voted for Trump; they actually believe we want THEM ruling over us.

We’re laughing at these people, but it’s not funny. These morons are the next generation who will be running for public office. And their fellow snowflakes will be voting for them.

Remember that the opposite of Black Lives Matter isn’t “All Lives Matter” but “Black Lives Don’t Matter”.

Wanting “comfort goats”, you must be a Muslim.

Qualifies as an assault and the girl would be justified in delivering an elbow strike to the ribs or a kick to the knee depending on if he grabbed her from the front or from behind.
