Why are they even at Thomas Jefferson’s university? If he is such a heinous historical figure, why go to his college?

“dozens turn outs”

A car dealership offering free hotdogs can get more people to turn out.

If they’re demands are met, does this mean .....

1- The murder and other violence rate becomes more like that of other humans?
2- Whitey is no longer responsible for their education failures?
3- We don’t have to continue to build more prisons because they tend to glorify that culture?
4- We don’t have to give them some many of our government jobs based on their skin color?
5- They’re going to quit hating the US so much?
6- ........... I could go on and on ..

“No.” should be the only response ever offered.

And colleges are letting this happen, why? Since when did the students take over? Disgraceful behavior. Spoiled, rotten, entitled ignorant.

It's over for UVa, or it will be soon.

It was such a great place. Very sad.

Years ago there was an old adage which is becoming quite true. Give the dark folks and inch and they take a mile

Yep: money, money, money. That’s all BLM and Antifa and all the rest of that stuff is about.

Just a major league shake-down by a bunch of Alinsky-esque con artists.

The negro agitators have been coddled far too long. Black lives don't matter any more (or any less) than any other American. That's the truth, and that's a fact.

You wouldn’t HAVE a campus without Jefferson.

Bastards. Get over it, babies.

The press plays up the left... 'cause they're disgusting butt kissers of white liberal elite causes...

BLM was everywhere in Florida helping folks in need in the aftermath of hurricane Irma. Oh wait, no, that was white Christians bringing people water, ice and food.
