THE FIRST TIME AS TRAGEDY. . .
Powerline ^ | 22 Nov 2021 | Paul Mirengoff

Posted on 11/23/2021 5:43:53 AM PST by Rummyfan

Amaney Jamal is a Princeton dean. Not the dean of something silly like diversity. She’s the newly appointed dean of Princeton’s School of Public and International Affairs.

Following the verdicts in the Kyle Rittenhouse case, Jamal sent an email to the public affairs school community. The email was straight from the George Floyd playbook.

Jamal offered counseling for public affairs school students who require professional help to “process” the outcome of the Rittenhouse trial. One might have thought that graduate students at one of America’s top universities could “process” the outcome themselves.

But Jamal herself clearly needs help with that “processing.” She admitted as much in her email when she said “I fail to comprehend” that Kyle Rittenhouse, a “vigilante,” could be “declared innocent by the U.S. justice system.”

Probably because “vigilantism,” if that’s how Jamal wants to characterize what Rittenhouse did in trying to protect people and property against rioters, is not a crime. And killing isn’t a crime either, if it’s done in self defense.

As far as I can tell from this report about her email, Jamal made no attempt to analyze the issue of self defense in the Rittenhouse case. It’s not even clear that she watched the trial.

Good grief. We have a generation of Snowflakes who must be coddled whenever something doesn’t go their way. What the hell? Rub some dirt on it and go on with your life and stop thinking someone owes you something...they don’t.

All of the ivy league schools went full hate America communist long ago, but they used to at least be capable of rational thought, unlike this dean.

Amaney Jamal has never been exposed to an alternate view of the world. Her statements are the result of her upbringing and education.

She is the perfect woman of the 2020 and she is confident that her view of the world is the correct one and if you disagree... well you are nothing to her.

You can not use logic when arguing with the cult of the left, it is a religion to them.

If I had gotten an e-mail from her like that, I would have replied, stating that I don't need to process the Rittenhouse "not guilty" verdict - that, in fact, I welcomed the verdict, and that my faith in the impartiality of the American court system had been re-affirmed - but that I could use some psychological counseling in order to learn to accept that a Dean could be that infantile and warped in her thinking.

Just imagine her reaction if even only a sizable minority of the recipients of her original e-mail were to respond in that fashion!

Regards,

Wake up, parents...

Amaney Jamal’s mass comfort and counseling efforts is mind manipulation, which ultimately results in psych meds to ease the “troubled minds” of once stable youths.

Students who participate will no doubt undergo psychological diagnostic testing with far reaching topics on unrelated matters.

These are our future leaders. People that need “help” processing a not guilty verdict in a clear cut case of self defense. They read things into society that are not there, not proven, and don’t comport with reality. We’re doomed.

The left liked to say by the end of 2020 that around 25 people were killed in the riots. Of course, their context was that they wouldn't have been killed if the "peaceful protesters" didn't have guns.

For some reason the only one they put a name to riot shootings is the hero named "Kyle" who did it in self defense, not the rioters who killed others just to riot.

I’m becoming more and more convinced CW2 will break first along ethic lines. Comments like these are making me trust blacks less and less.

Academia - institutions of mental programming taught by the mentally ill to those who desperately want to join the Ignorati in their lifelong goal of avoiding reason.

Princeton is living off a reputation that is now so tarnished as to be unrecognizable.
