I never said I was a social activist. Just a Cowboys fan and part Cherokee.

So what does that make all the other presidents who NEVER send in the DOJ when things happened like this in the past.

It’s not his “true color,” he’s been like every other president and been partial to certain people. He hired a lot of friends from Chicago, etc. just like most politicians before him. I don’t think he ever said he WASN’T going to do that, but anyway.

The Right Wing response to this originally was, “He knew he was making it to look like a bomb, because he wanted to get arrested so he could make a big stink about it.” My assumption is that the Right will now proclaim they were correct, and that the kid was in it for the money all along.

I could have told you that from day one of this controversy. The kid’s father is an opportunist who orchestrated the entire thing.

I’m not “self-righteous.”

It’s so easy to tweet mockery from behind someone’s back. How brave.

The more important clarification the article makes is that the chants of “Martyrs never die, the country will never be divided” and the reported cries of “Allahu Akbar” were in no way meant to show support to the perpetrators of the Paris attacks.

You are not allies and you should all be ashamed of yourselves.

decorum is a racist construct.

I’m upset by the comments I’m reading.

I was addressing why safe space is an important, often taken for granted, necessity.

It isn’t clear to me where the institution is mistreating them? What is the school providing to their white counterparts that they aren’t receiving? From my read, the majority of the complaints are lobbed at other students. Except most of the complaints aren’t illegal or even punishable.

What the fuck is this bullshit you’re calling “educational privilege?” You just made this up didn’t you?

But these instances of feeling unwelcome on campus—from the stained glass windows that depicted images of slavery to a college being named after a racist secessionist to offensive-themed party after party to slurs written around campus (not even to speak of the ones I knew of but hadn’t experienced, like black women…
