Sessions rips campus culture for creating generation of 'sanctimonious' snowflakes
Breitbart ^ | 7/24/2018 | Andrew O'Reilly

Posted on 07/24/2018 4:41:33 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Attorney General Jeff Sessions delivered a blistering attack on campus culture in front of a group of conservative high school students on Tuesday, saying that colleges are creating a generation of “supercilious snowflakes.”

“Rather than molding a generation of mature, well-informed adults, some schools are doing everything they can to create a generation of sanctimonious, sensitive, supercilious snowflakes,” Sessions said during a speech at Turning Point USA's High School Leadership Summit in Washington.

Sessions focused much of his address on railing against what he called the suppression of free speech on college campuses and hostility against conservative students.

He added that instead of fostering open debate on campus, school administrations are bowing to liberal ideologies and “coddling students” with trigger warnings, crying rooms and therapy sessions.

“Too many schools are coddling students,” Sessions said. “There was a ‘cry-in’ at Cornell after the 2016 election, therapy dogs at the University of Kansas. … I hope they had plenty of tissues.”

“Sanctimonious Snowflakes”

Kind of like the DOJ, His old Senate ‘Fraternity Brothers’, the CIA, the FBI, the Department of State, etc.

Sessions, your are more than a day late, and quite a few dollars short. Jeff, the best thing you can do, to save any residual honor, would be to resign immediately.

The rule of law and the nation is hanging by a thread and the pudless leprechaun is out talking to high school students about snowflakery. SMH

“Jeff, the best thing you can do, to save any residual honor, would be to resign immediately. “

The only way he could redeem himself in my book is if he fired everyone at the DOJ and committed seppuku

“Sanctimonious Snowflakes”
Somehow the word “dumbass” has managed to escape being surrounded by those two other words.

Why we do not cut to the chase and publicly ridicule these obviously not ready for high school pretenders is a mystery to me. Any college department containing such collections of low achievers deserves even more ridicule. Such departments have standards so low that they approach the limits of measurability.

His JOB is not to lecture HS Students.
Do your job or resign.

“””””” doing everything they can to create a generation of sanctimonious, sensitive, supercilious snowflakes,” Sessions said “””””””””””

I’m an uneducated white guy. I still call them pansies. Much easier to spell.

It's easy for him to talk small issues like this instead of doing the obvious and enforcing the rule of law. He is a disaster.

The seditionist cabal is destroying America and he goes to Turning Point USA’s “High School Leadership Summit” in Washington to rail against suppression of free speech on college campuses? Instead of this trivial topic, he could have used his opportunity to expose the cabal and all of their evil doings to subvert free elections and destroy a duly and freely elected POTUS. That would have greatly educated all of the attendees. What a waste of oxygen.

Yep, wasting his time and their time on trivially small issues when the very fate of the nation and the Rule of Law precariously hang by a thread.

Sessions needs to come out of this 4th qtr 2 minute warning and toss a game winning touchdown. I’ve had hope that he is feverishly working on a master plot to bring down the swamp in a fiery display that will shake our nation.

Jeff, the clock is ticking, come on man. Are you with us??

I was thinking the same thing.

Why doesn’t he open his mouth about the Mueller investigation?

So, AG Sessions, what say you about the FBI’s denizens of corruption?

Jeff?

Hello...?

Standards, schmanders . Colleges are making money hand over fist precisely because they’re catering to the precious snowflakes and, by extension, their so-called parents.

This poster sums it up.
Shaking his knotty index finger at high school graduates is not what we need from an Attorney General.
Let someone like Oprah do that.
There is a great deal of heavy lifting that is not being done, or even talked about.
