"I felt my identity was getting shot at by what he was saying and by what other people were saying," sophomore Jasmine Dennis noted during Monday's forum, according to the Daily Targum, the New Jersey school's newspaper.

As part of his "The Most Dangerous Faggot Tour," Yiannopoulos - who indeed is gay - lambasted many schools' attempts to shield students from ideas that might offend them during his Feb. 9 speech, calling out their "culture of safe spaces and trigger warnings."

"Of course, they're not really traumatized or upset - they're just upset that someone disagrees with them," he offered. "In my view, anybody who asks for a trigger warning or a safe space should be immediately expelled."

During the lecture many students held loud protests in which they shook their fists and smeared fake blood on their faces -

Lock them in the dorms permanently. Win-win.

Give the little snotty-nosed cry babies an extra couple hours of “time out” in their safe space. They’ll get over it.

If they can’t take a different view imagine the crushing blow they will feel when their fantasies clash with reality. I fear for our nation.

Maybe an obligatory two years of military service prior to college would toughen them up.

The silver lining is that these crybabies will be the first to go in a Zombie Apocalypse.

I thought faces was feces. Now that sentence makes sense.

So the little fug packers are really going to be offended when ISIS starts throwing their lovers off the top of high rises I am thinking.

Oh well, life is full of disappointments. Might as well get used to it.

Liberals whining about ideas they can’t handle.

“Safe spaces” on college campuses are not going to shield them from the reality called life.

OH COME ON!!!

Milo is going to have a field day with this!

I saw this footage a few days ago, and to hear these brats cry about about “hurt feelings” after they had no problem crashing his lecture, even I’m astonished at their nerve.

Don't these college crybabies know how to drink? That was always the solution in the past.

Amen. Make it a four-year T.O.D. Then they’ll be fit to deal with reality and life during their four years of school. Girls, too.

We won’t even have to wait for that-they will jump off the nearest scenic overlook as soon as an interviewer tells them flat-out they are unfit for work-any work...

“You want the TRUTH...you can't handle the truth.” — COL Nathan R. Jessup

Ah, the poor little liberal skulls full of mush at Rutgers cannot handle opposing views and they get the vapors. What happens if they run into those that do not play their game and JUST DON'T CARE about their mangled feelings. I guess they will just have to take a time out in their safe room and pout.

You must really hate the military. What did they ever do to you to make you so bitter?
