Emory University Students Think Donald Trump Is Out to Kill Them
The Daily Beast ^ | March 24, 2016 | Lizzie Crocker

After the GOP frontrunner's name was written in chalk on a campus wall, students said they 'feared for their lives.' The school vowed to identify the taggers. But professors at the school are now pushing back.

Support for Donald Trump in the form of chalk markings on campus at Emory College sent the university into a tailspin this week, with the administration scrambling to appease students who felt threatened by the sudden scourge of pro-Trump scribblings on school grounds.

Early Monday, students say, they were "attacked" by Trump's name in large, pastel letters on campus walkways and buildings. "Vote for Trump," "Trump for Pres," "Accept the Inevitable: Trump 2016" and more chalk sloganeering for the Republican presidential frontrunner was written all over the most trafficked areas on campus.

"I legitimately feared for my life," Paula Camila Alarcon, a freshman at Emory who identifies as Latino, told The Daily Beast. "I thought we were having a KKK rally on campus."

Word spread quickly among student minorities and activist groups on social media, including the Muslim Student Association, Emory's NAACP chapter, Black Students at Emory, and LatinAction....

God help us all. This is the reaction of our allegedly best and brightest young people in college nowadays????

The reaction is simply an Alinsky tactic.

They will surrender rather than fight, as an affirmation of their superior morality. This is not new in history.

Maoris, Moors and Migrants

A history lesson for civilized humans facing an Ork invasion

From ‘Moriori’, by Denise Davis and Māui Solomon, in Te Ara — the Encyclopedia of New Zealand:

Hundreds of years ago the Moriori, of the Chatham Islands, took a solemn vow of peace known as Nunuku’s Law. The decision to uphold this sacred law in the face of aggression in 1835 had tragic consequences. They were slaughtered, enslaved, and dispossessed of their lands. The Moriori lived on Chatham Island and Pitt Island, two islands in the Chatham Islands group, about 700 kilometers south-east of Wellington.

Nunuku’s Law: Isolated from mainland New Zealand, the Moriori developed a unique culture based on a law of peace. This was called Nunuku’s Law, after the ancestor Nunuku-whenua. After seeing bloody conflict between the Hamata people and later arrivals, he banned murder and the eating of human flesh forever. After 1791, when the British ship Chatham called at Rēkohu, Moriori came into contact with Europeans and Māori who came as crew on sealing and whaling vessels. Some settled on the islands and lived alongside the Moriori. This relative peace was shattered in 1835 when Maoris from two tribes, both from Taranaki, arrived in the Chatham Islands in search of new territories and resources.

In 1835, 24 generations after the Moriori chief Nunuku had forbidden war, the Moriori welcomed about 900 people from the two Māori tribes. Originally from Taranaki on New Zealand’s North Island, they had voyaged from Wellington on an overcrowded European vessel, the Rodney. They arrived severely weakened, but were nursed back to health by their Moriori hosts. However, they soon revealed hostile intentions and embarked on a reign of terror.

Stunned, the Moriori called a council of 1,000 men at Te Awaptiki to debate their response. The younger men were keen to repel the invaders, and argued that even though they had not fought for many centuries, they outnumbered the newcomers two-to-one and were a strong people. But the elders argued that Nunuku’s Law was a sacred covenant with their gods and could not be broken. The consequences for Moriori were devastating.

Although the total number of Moriori first slaughtered was said to be around 300, hundreds more were enslaved and later died. Some were killed by their captors. Others, horrified by the desecration of their beliefs, died of ‘kongenge’ or despair [often suicide by leaping from cliffs]. According to records made by their elders, 1,561 Moriori died between 1835 and 1863, when they were released from slavery. Many succumbed to diseases introduced by Europeans, but large numbers died at the hands of the Maoris. In 1862 only 101 remained. When the last known full-blooded Moriori died in 1933, many thought this marked the extinction of a race.

The Maori were armed with guns, clubs and axes. They announced to the Moriori that they were their slaves. Moriori chiefs conferred with each other and drew from their religious heritage. [Nunuku’s Law.] They offered the Maori friendship and a share of the island’s resources. The attempt to appease the Maori failed. The Maori began killing the Moriori, including women and children. The Maori put people in pens and feasted on the tender meat of Moriori children. A Maori conqueror described it:

“We took possession, in accordance with our customs and we caught all the people. Not one escaped. Some ran away from us. These we killed, and others we killed – but what of that? It was in accordance with our custom.”

I remember seeing chalk ‘Bush kills’ inscriptions on my campus. At first I thought it was part of a misguided safe sex campaign.

It is a good idea, but it just isn’t feasible.

I agree. we’re in trouble.

People like these students need to be segregated away from normal people. They should spend their miserable lives in seclusion. They contribute absolutely nothing that is decent or good.

Can we call this new generation “Generation Snowflake” instead of Generation Z?

Seems more appropriate

The students don’t “THINK”, they’ve been “PROGRAMMED.”

This is the reaction of our allegedly best and brightest young people in college nowadays????

For too many college has become a replacement for going out and working. They get easy college loans from the government, and then go to school... essentially forever. They're not looking for work, so they don't count in the unemployment figures so the government is happy.

Furthermore, Democrats can score points now by hinting at forgiving these loans... you know, because the evil Republicans talked them into taking them out in the first place. /s

This is why Trump will not win. The hatred against him is greater than the hatred against global warming deniers...
