Rutgers University students expressed hurt feelings and fear in the wake of a controversial lecture last week by conservative writer Milo Yiannopoulos, saying the outspoken commentator's takedowns of liberal views were an assault on their sensibilities.
"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 -

Me thinks that she should experience what it is like to really get shot at. Then her identity would really be offended.
JOHNNY (as Tom quietly enters the Don’s office)
A month ago he bought the movie rights to this book. A bestseller — and the main character,
it’s a guy just like me. I uh — I wouldn’t even have to act — just be myself. Oh, Godfather, I
don’t know what to do. I don’t know what to do.
VITO CORLEONE
You can act like a man!
(then, after slapping Johnny on the face)
What’s the matter with you? Is this how you turned out? A Hollywood
finocchio that ah cries like a woman?
(then imitating Johnny, as Tom giggles)
What can I do?! What can I do?!
(then)
What is that nonsense? Ridiculous.
People post that meme for sad anime.
Yiannopoulos may be joking but they really should be expelled if they’re that neurotic. Why should a college education be wasted on anyone that immature?
Milo’s the Man
Thank you. Left to its own devices (absent political interference from the 0bamorrhoid Regime), today's military would be a hardened force of dedicated professionals, each man a volunteer several times over, second to none in killing the enemy and breaking all his toys.
Right now, kids the same age are over in Jihadistan doing their level best to kick Achmed’s butt in spite of 0bama’s interference.
But those kids had some self respect and the military is open to them. Put a bunch of today’s spoiled brat college kid in the services and nothing good will result.
LOL

This is Obuma’s “army” who are coming to take your weapons away. You won’t need to fire a shot at them. Just insult the precious snowflakes and name the surrender terms.
Ah stop, you’re making me cry - to quote my high school biology teacher.....
I am pretty sure that those kids are not worried about hurt feelings from micro-aggression either.
Maybe we should bring back the draft. Give spoiled kids something more important to worry about.
They need to start college with a hard boiled DI telling them “You are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth.....”
Makes you sick, doesn’t it? My father-in-law fought as an 18 year old in WWII. He does not talk about his time during that war very much. He survived malaria three times. Incredible man. He’s almost 92.
Hear, hear! If it wasn’t for Uncle Sugar, I’d have been dead or in jail years ago.
Excellent observation.
I’m glad for both you and your Dad.For me, it was a schoolmate who was “INVITED” to join the Marines. Two years later I enlisted in the Navy. A couple of years later, while on leave, I got stopped for gliding through a STOP sign.
ONE guess as to who approached and demanded to see my license and registration, but politely. My “juvie” school mate was now a policeman, tending to young punks like HE once was. He recognized me, so no ticket, but a rather stern lecture. He even sounded like a Marine.
Both the ex-marine and the country was better off for that succesful program.
