American universities: Bastions of free speech!!!! /S

I read it as Geek Week....
And I’m totally offended by Geek Week.

Geeks would never just build a wall. They would build a technology enabled barrier.

Thanks bryan999.

If Trump becomes president, college professors will be wondering, “Where are my students?”

They will be huddled together in dark closets, sucking their thumbs and crying out, “MOMMY!!!!!”

They aren’t old enough to remember that Congress passed a law, and provided funding to build a wall back around 2002. The Bushies never implemented the law and were never called out on it.

I’m traumatized ...

... by the absolutely wretched, inept, incompetent nature of the graffiti.

Who dropped a whole truckload of fizzies into the varsity swim meet? Who delivered the medical school cadavers to the alumni dinner? Who painted the words “Build the Wall” on the graffiti wall near Bently Hall? Every Halloween, the trees are filled with underwear. Every spring, the toilets explode.

A wall has to do with stopping illegal immigration from Mexico, not legal immigration of any and all Hispanics. How can these gifted intellectuals on campus fail to notice such a basic distinction unless it's on purpose?

"This phrase is offensive and hurtful to many individuals as it is directly tied to the Hispanic/Latino/a community, makes them feel marginalized, and the message was interpreted that they do not belong at Ohio University," the letter stated.

It's a good thing they added that /a otherwise there would have been massive caterwauling over such an insensitive and exclusionary letter.

lololol

“This phrase is offensive and hurtful to many individuals as it is directly tied to the Hispanic/Latino/a community, makes them feel marginalized, and the message was interpreted that they do not belong at Ohio University,” the letter stated.

Oh for the love of Pete!!! (Why 90,000 Children Flooding Our Border Is Not an Immigration Story)......maybe the whiners can deal with this!

[Boogieman]

If someone had painted “Feel the Bern” on the wall would events have been canceled?

“The letter was addressed to the “OU Sorority and Fraternity Life community and supporters,” and was signed by the Interfraternity Council, Multicultural Greek Council, National Pan-Hellenic Council and the Women’s Panhellenic Association.”

These groups look like a bunch of frogs boiling in the Marxist pot.

They need o be told “Build a wall! Grow a pair!”

[Lurkinanloomin]

The wall is only necessary because of people disrespecting our laws and us.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to keep your country.
