Social Justice Warriors Suggest Banning Veterans From Campus

The social justice warriors are at it again, and this time they’re going after our veterans.

A flyer was recently posted on a community bulletin board at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs (UCCS) claiming veterans have no place at traditional, four-year universities or colleges, reports Campus Reform.

The flyer is apparently a part of a new “Social Justice Collective Weekly” newsletter, which aims to “promote justice in our society.” The first issue included an article titled “Should Veterans Be Banned From UCCS and Other Universities?” And according to the author, the answer is yes – because nothing screams justice quite like a veterans ban.

“A four-year, traditional university is supposed to be a place of learning, of understanding, of safety, and security. However, there is an element among us who may be frustrating those goals: Veterans,” the author writes.

Well, we ARE a thoroughly dangerous bunch. No doubt jumping up and shouting "INCOMING!" and "CHOPPERS INBOUND!" and "GRENADE" and jumping on the floor like a human shield.

I grew up in NYC during WWII. Right after the veterans came back, on occasion, a car would backfire and some of these guys would drop to the pavement. Being stupid kids, we laughed at them

If you drill down to the Campus Reform site via Bearing Arms, one commenter there says:
The letter is fake: http://communique.uccs.edu/?p=27539

The pity of it is, that once upon a time it would have been summarily dismissed as a joke, but after all this statue business, banana-peel-in-tree and other insanities, it is all too easy to accept this as the truth.
