This one may have you changing your mind (yes I know it's just one group, but they still claim to be SJW's...)

Veterans should no longer be allowed on campuses.. for any reason

Quote: A newsletter posted on the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) campus started to make the rounds on social media Thursday. It states veterans should be banned from four-year universities. Several viewers asked 11 News to look into the origin of the newsletter.

...

"A four-year, traditional university is supposed to be a place of learning, of understanding, of safety and security. However, there is an element among us who may be frustrating those goals: Veterans.

UCCS is known for its number of veterans who are full and part-time students. But these veterans of much of the school prides themselves on may be hurting the university.

First off, many veterans openly mock the ideas of diversity and safe spaces for vulnerable members of society. This is directly in contradiction to the mission of UCCS. Many veterans utter the mantra that they, "do not see color". But the problem lies in their socialization into the military culture that is that of a white supremacist organization. They have been permanently tainted, and are no long fit for a four-year university.

Second, many students are frightened by the presence of veterans in their classrooms. Veterans usually have an overwhelming presence in the classroom, which can distract other students. This is usually true for vulnerable individual such as LGBTQQI2SAA, who have been known to be the butt of insensitive jokes made by veterans.

Finally, veterans usually are associated with extremists right-wing groups such as the tea party and the NRA. In order to provide a safe place for all students, extremist right-wing groups must be suppressed on campus. This would include their followers: veterans.

That is not to say that veterans should not be allowed an education. Veterans should be allowed to attend trade schools, or maybe even community college. But, in order to protect our academic institutions we must ban veterans from four-year universities."

Yeah, that liberal SJW tolerance just showing through... At least the school chancellor shot this stupidity down.

Pease tell me that was a joke or poorly done satire.

If this "author" is actually a Kollege student they need to go back to remedial English class.


Wait.

Can I still use "English"?!?

Replace the bigoted attitude about veterans with "Blacks," "Hispanics," "Asians," "Muslims," or "Women" and they would have been expelled. (if they were actually a student)

Pretty sure it's satire. If not, the author is a major idiot, because who would be stupid enough to affix such a label that group as a SJW?

Stupid fvucking dorm room philosophers.

LGBTQQI2SAA....

This has to be satire.

That acronym has a twitter handle and an urban dictionary entry.

I'm hoping your right JMUDunk, but when the school chancellor has to speak up.. I'm not so sure.

How about we just defund anything that isn't STEM, law, business, or medicine? I feel a lot of these problems (and people) would disappear.

Wow. Unfortunately, there are probably lots of people with this opinion.

Read Louis Gohmert's resume. For every SJW ***** look at some examples of actual White privilege. Louis Gohmenrt is about as smart as a tree stump and that's a little degrading to the stump.

We are frucked.

It's likely a hoax. I doubt that many veterans actually attend college to make a difference either way.

You watch it being a hoax. I wouldn't put it past some numb skulls to get hoodwinked by this type of stuff. Let's research it. I'm on my phone at a Mexican restaurant so don't have the phalanges free and it's a pain to do that copying and pasting on an iPhone. Someone see if this is real.

Considering that the university has issued a press release acknowledging it and disagreeing with it, I don't think it's a hoax.

Why would you think that?

Because he's a troll.

Over 790,000 used the Post 9/11 GI Bill alone in the fiscal year of 2015. That's one of seven available educational benefits available to our veterans.

Owl,

Read your own link. 1 set sentence.

I write this morning in response to a flyer posted yesterday on the UCCS campus by a non-UCCS group. The flyer references veterans studying at institutions of higher education. UCCS does not endorse and vigorously rejects the offensive viewpoints expressed in the flyer.

It's a non UCCS group. The op acted like it was an official position. This is the kind of crap that the left is sick and tired of. You guys have the audacity to say FAKE NEWS while the right thrives off of misinformation and things taken out of context. Another chicken little sky is falling bs. Read the original op.

Probably a false flag event. Tired of these things. Non UCCS group. Not affiliated with the University. Nuff said.

Sixty-two percent of veterans and military service members are the first in their family to attend college, compared to 43 percent of non-military students. 25,000 vets in Colorado alone.
