I remember when I was going to college around `79 to `83 I had Reagan stickers on my car and nobody said anything. Today though, my car would probably be trashed. It's so freakin' left today it's insane. I think what happened is back in the 70s and early 80s the WW2/Korean war era professors starting retiring and were replaced by the hippie radicals of the 1960s who indoctrinated the kids and those kids became professors and it's been a vicious cycle ever since. Its probably also why we got these leftist lunatics in politics and the media as well

Amanda you don’t need a safe space, you need a LAWYER so you can SUE the School for creating a Dangerous and Hostile environment.

Here’s a stark example of college in my father’s age and today.

My father walked into a Monday morning class late clad in od green some Monday in fall. He had a high powered rifle over his shoulder, came into a full auditorium size classroom, took the bolt out, put the rifle in the corner and sat quietly down in the back.

Not one eye turned to him until the teacher, one of those WW2 vets you mentioned, asked him if he had gotten anything.

Imagine that scenario today......

My late father - who taught and coached for 40 years - often said that when the last of the WWII and Korean War vets retired, the public schools would go to hell. Some of the younger faculty would get upset with him for saying it at the time, but after dad and the other old heads retired, most of those younger ones told him privately that he was right.

I get what they're going for, but conservatives -- particularly Trump supporters -- are not weenies who soil their diapers at the sight of opposition. They do NOT need "safe spaces." In fact, they welcome danger, because they know they can beat it.

It's the pajama-boy Left that needs therapy puppies and unicorn coloring books whenever they hear a discouraging word.

Problem easily solved...return education to the States and local communities, which is to say closer to the taxpayers. The local taxpayers won’t stand for the craziness. They also won’t pay for worthless degrees.
