Try Karl Mark next time, or some other Communist responsible for the mass deaths of millions of innocent people. That seems to not upset Lie-berals and Dhimmicrats.

UVA Head should pass a rule saying that each day must be started with a quote from jefferson until every last precious snowflakes gets it through their thick skulls that their ‘feelings’ do not trump reality

I think Jefferson founded that university?

What the heck; you can’t acknowledge the founder of your university, because he wasn’t liberal enough by today’s standards??? You can’t quote our 3rd president??

So are the liberals still going to have Jefferson Jackson dinners, or are both Jefferson and Jackson to be shunned for not having had a 21st century liberal worldview back in the 19th century????

"ways to be more inclusive"


"...truth is great and will prevail if left to herself, that she is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error, and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate, errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to contradict them. "
 
"I HAVE SWORN UPON THE ALTAR OF GOD ETERNAL HOSTILITY TO EVERY FORM OF TYRANNY OVER THE MIND OF MAN"
--The Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom
--Thomas Jefferson, 1786

 

Well, how'bout NOT disarming Truth of her natural weapons - free argument and debate?

You know that whole "infidels of every denomination" thing and all...

University suggests being open to all information and facts

They should change their name from "University" to "MONOVERSITY" - since they find controversy so offensive.
It used to be that college and university was supposed to help make you cognitively think, not defined to just protect "snowflakes".

I wonder how many of those Profs believed 5-10 years ago in even half of the politically correct canon that is current for 2016? Even less so for 2017 and beyond. Maybe they should refrain from quoting themselves, or each other, for that matter.

These swiveling little twits should have the ridiculousness of their thought processes succinctly explained to them. By Lee Ermey.

In light of every person on earth having done something bad at some point in their lives, we should all refrain from quoting anyone ever. /s

I have known many UVa grads and they take great pleasure in calling it “Mr. Jefferson’s University.”

I suspect a lot of money will dry up real fast if this nonsense isn’t squashed.

They need only look at MIZZOU to see what happens when the PC Circus comes to town.

I live in Virginia and I pay taxes here. UVA is a publicly funded school.

In my letter to my state delegate and state senator asking them to reduce funding to "The University", I will be including the following quote:

"To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical." -- Thomas Jefferson

I am so glad I’m not in college. It’s been years, we had some insanity, but nothing like this.

Thought police in a university. It is so opposite what we were always taught a university represented.

Thomas Jeffersons was the FOUNDER of UVa, which was a very innovative institution for its time.

He was also one of the USA’s Founding Fathers, and a President who even had the foresight and gumption to fight islam, as we should be doing now!!!!

“Inclusion”is BS!!!!

“Diversity” is BS!!!!

Trump WON—fair and square!!!! And it is a good thing, too!!!! GET OVER IT!!!!

By working for or attending a university founded by someone they so detest, the professors and students who signed the petition are, in their own interpretation of Jefferson, knowingly endorsing racism and slavery. They should resign and withdraw immediately. At minimum, the profs should refuse fat paychecks and benefit packages paid for by the tax slaves of Virginia.

More insanity on college campuses. The mentally weak students and faculty are at best hypocrites, more likely suffering from mental illness, and should immediately switch to a school with no links to Jefferson. In fact, they should leave Virginia.

Never mind that he wrote the Declaration of Independence and founded the very university that they are sucking the government's teat to attend. Or that he also founded the Democrat Party that they all worship................

The University was one of Jefferson's proudest accomplishments. Is it unfair to describe this collection of students and faculty anti-Jeffersonians as "parasites?" They want to enjoy the benefits of Jefferson's creation, while indulging in undeserved scorn for their benefactor.

The contrast between the patriot genius, who vowed eternal vigilance against every form of tyranny over the minds of man, and these myopic fanatics, bent on demonstrating their hate driven stupidity, could not be more stark.
