UCSC done crying over Trump, hosts 'People's Inauguration' protest [UC-Santa Cruz]
Campus Reform ^ | January 17, 2017 | Anthony Gockowski

Posted on 01/18/2017 9:52:55 AM PST by C19fan

The University of California, Santa Cruz is in the midst of a week-long “People’s Inauguration” to protest Donald Trump’s election, which “deeply troubled” administrators at the time.

In a letter recently obtained by Campus Reform, the provost of Oakes College (one of ten academic colleges at UCSC) lamented the election of “a person who has been overtly and openly racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim, ableist, cis-sexist, xenophobic, and much more while on the campaign trail.”

Basing one’s entire political and governmental philosophy on what people may or may not think of other people seems incredibly stupid and pointless.

People can and will think whatever they want about other people, and there’s not a single thing anyone can do about it.

We have more conservatives, liberals and everything else than your state. CA has always had the best and worst of everything. That’s old news.

You obviously only see what you want to.

Are you suggesting being currently out numbered is no excuse not to win elections?

Btw so you understand, out of about 40 million in the state, only about 7 million leftist voted for Clinton, with about 5 million voting for Trump. So the leftist didn’t much vote for Clinton either, did they?

UCSC is the university that hired Angela Davis and gave her a full professorship

Good post which reflects my position on my home state, pretty much. California allowed itself to become a haven for free thinkers. The hard core leftists saw this as a weakness. They stepped in and placed a foot on our throats. Today, there are still millions of conservatives in the state. However, there is not a lick of leadership which is partly due to the success the media has had in slapping down the potential leaders.

Exactly like the U.S. and the fed gov until Trump surfaced. I for one hope Trump puts the screw$ to Sacramento.

I wonder how many of those 7 million Clinton votes were illegals.

There ya go. It’s kind of hard to win elections when the leftist screw worms pander to, aid and abet and kiss the a$$es of millions of illegals here. All while middle class CA is looted and all but ignored by controlling corrupt open borders socialist and Communist in Sacramento.

“Well, they didn’t much vote that way, now did they???”

4,400,000 Californians voted for Trump in November

1,500,000 Tennessee voters voted for Trump in November

1,100,000 Californians voted for Trump in our June primary.

Some of you get your kicks trashing California. Try making yourselves useful and come out here and help us instead.

We passed a proposition to fight the illegal alien invasion in 1994.

Instead of helping, the national GOP fought us, collaborated with a corrupt judge to kill the bill, and then elected a President who tried to ram through amnesty.

The first time that the national GOP ever helped us was when Trump made it an issue 22 years later, after this had become Occupied California.

So spare us your holier than thou bullshit. Either help out or STFU.

Pelham was absolutely correct on this point. Much of this BS it driven by jealousy as much as legitimate dislike for leftist screw worms. And the jealousy part has *always* existed even before the lying leftist occupiers took control of CA.

Unfortunately CA is a massive magnet for everything. It's a very desirable place due to it's location, world class year round weather and lots to do. It has about every type of geography imaginable and folks can routinely go to the beach, BBQ, ski, go deep sea fishing or golf throughout the winters, with summers having little or no humidity. That alone is worth a fortune to many folks. And everyone knows all this.

Since the beginning of the state, it's always attracted the best and worst of people. It goes with the territory. It's the way it is.

We'll see what happens here in regards to Trump and these Communist/socialist/globalist and deviate occupiers here in CA. From my perspective, Trump need to go to war on these people. No joke.
