If the guy is saying there are too many dumbasses and long-haired geeks in college he’s probably correct. In my school years a half century ago most of my friends were VETS and there’s no way we put up with unnecessary cheap krap. We had all done a lot of living by the time we got there and didn’t have any trouble spitting out an opinion or spotting a problem. The current campus crowd would have been target of ATOMIC wedgies and all the rest that goes with being an ill-mannered dunce.
> You meant “ostensible”?
Yes, I did.
> An argument for returning voting age to 21.
Should never have been changed, but it’s an amendment, now. Very hard to change.
Wow....another leftist stupid enough to tell everyone what they actually believe.
He won’t be criticized by his peers for what he actually said...only that he said it in public.
“The Baby-boomers are funny:
As yutes...”
...we joined the Marines and served in Viet Nam.
Honorably.
As adults, we are conservative and vote Republican and support the Tea Party.
Now let’s talk about all the Communists in “The Greatest Generation” who subverted America during the FDR Administration.
Or we could simply not paint with a broad brush.
Just sayin’.
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUSSSSSHHHHH!!!!!
There are many young brains not fully developed enough to handle that kind of information....they must be protected....for their own good!
But Barry is not Congress; further *proof* the Founding Fathers would’ve been copacetic with an EO, right? /sarc

Perversely, I believe you're correct.
1) The US Civil Rights Commissioner probably made this statement to ingratiate himself to a higher position in Barry's administration.
2) The administration wants to advantage youth. Where old farts such as I will be summarily shot for expressing my Constitutionally-aligned and -guaranteed understandings, killing off the yet-useful youth (stronger, youthful, healthy) at a later date will save on lead bullets and prioritize whom must be shot in an order that serves Barry's goals.
3) By advantaging youth, whose parents are still contributing massive sums to the University system, both those "natural Democrat" constituencies (youths and uni-types) are advantaged during their university attendance, as their parents continue to fork it over.
Etc.

She looks developed enough for me. So as far as I am concerned, she can say whatever the hell she wants.
Yaki-ty-yak doens't mention students seem to be mature enough to ban speakers that don't fit their agenda, or the fringe groups and clubs on campus spewing garbage, or banning christian/right-leaning political groups initiated by students.
Rush today pointed another 'maturity' contradiction: how is it a 12 year-old girl can have an abortion and the parents don't need to be notified?
I have one. Why do schools feel younger students are mature enough to introduce them to the gay agenda and condoms?
The US Civil Rights Commission has always, in recent times, had communists/marxists and leftwing wackos on it. Check out the pro-Maoist musings of Merry Berry (who is still around and spouting her marxism. Saw something about her in the paper the other day)
Yaki is Wacky, but then again, he worked for Nancy Pelosi where wackiness is a key prerequiste to employment, as well as the The San Francisco Politburo (er, City Council).
Thanks to Al Gore’s internet, these marxist idiots can now be exposed in “real time” and their fascistic/marxist quotes and plans used against them.
Wonder if he was named after the Russian airplane designer (Yakolev, aka YAK, for short)?
I know that the Yaki (aka Yaqui) Indians wouldn’t want this creep in their tribe.
The First Amendment’s “exception list” seems to be growing all the time. We have Justice Breyer’s Koran-burning exception, we have the left’s “corporation” exception, we have this guy’s “developmental” exception.
The college kids of the late 60s would have burnt down DC for this kinda crap, but King Zero is in the Whitehouse so it’s no big deal.
My son just went to a middle school leadership conference in DC. He was given a choice between disaster relief or going green as his project.
These statists can’t get us, they can only try to indoctrinate our kids.
My son showed them and his roommates the Manbearpig South Park episode.
Hopefully many like him will not survive.
Yaki needs to be disbarred.
