Get rid of the yellow streak going down your back and un-ban all those fine people, then you can use the words snowflake and coward with freeness of speech.

Denialists are scumbags who don't care about the truth or the people affected by these dangers. They are greedy, despicable people who deserve no respect and no say in policy. They cannot be convinced. The don't even believe their own lies. They simply are spreading FUD to prevent actions from being implemented that would curtail the lawlessness of their tribe in polluting and vandalizing public property.

The biggest difference between the USA and Germany in the Far East trade wars was that they got an agreement to trade goods 1:1. This preserved their manufacturing base, kept their brainiacs employed, and now if you want high tech industrial parts you must buy them from Germany. I can't tell you how many parts my company buys from Germany just to keep the heavy equipment running! The order and lag time can be onerous and the prices aren't cheap, but made in the USA isn't an option. So, methinks Trump is on the right path. We need to make stuff here again to make America great again.

Why doesn't the KGB just give Kushner a crate of burner phones?

why do you hate communicative channels???

Obama had one with Iran... didn't see liberals complain once about that. But Trump did the same thing.... "oh the world is ending!!!!"

I really think AF should be the next white house correspondent. Would make any president tremble in fear before American public.

Now this is the patnet I remember! Sorry Patrick, some of us get a sick, twisted pleasure out of shit-talking.

At 3:37...Is this the BEST individual available to read the report? I would like to think that this incident reveals the inevitable implosion/collapse of this SJW movement. How long can a delusional, hysterical, narcissistic, and rage filled movement be given respect? This all runs on white guilt. Once white guilt runs dry, arrogant, ignorant, emotional, and childish behavior will simply be treated as such...not indulged.

Yes. She cares more about virtue signalling than protecting people.

That's already been done. I saw a few tweets on that, complaining about White AND Asian Males. Didn't save.

Why is such a racist institution getting funded by taxes?

It's not a private school (of course, for private schools would never alienate their donors this way).

The state of Washington needs to completely defund and shut down the college.

Patrick,

many private schools are worse.

I can not believe this passes as normal these days:

A student group at Mount Holyoke College has decided to cancel its annual performance of The Vagina Monologues, saying the play excludes the experiences of transgender women who don’t have a vagina.

Lol, excellent.

All those identity groups need to get more aggressive about their special identities and start excluding even more people.

Self-solving problem!

The simplest solution to this problem is to link the guaranteed student loan program to the H1B visa program. If employers say they can't find enough people with particular qualifications, then accredited academic programs can get guaranteed student loan money only for students getting degrees that match those qualifications, and the guarantee applies only subject to the ability of the federal government to collect income taxes from graduates.

There shouldn't be a guaranteed student loan if the degree doesn't prepare students to do something that will enable them to repay the loan.

Otherwise the current situation results from a super-abundance of students who are facing conflicting pressures. Economically, they face a lifetime of non-dischargeable debt whatever degree they pursue. Socially, they face peer pressure and highly paid encouragement to pursue whatever is fashionable. Add the fact that many of these kids have been on so many Rx psychotropics since childhood ("Thanks Medicaid+CHIP!") that they have no memory of even one clear-headed day in their whole lives, and you see university students acting crazy and some of their non-university counterparts getting shot by police.

BTW, I'd really like to see a serious study comparing the incidence of psychotropic Rx in these students, persons shot by police, and the general population. Anecdotally, correlation is very strong, and I suspect causation in both directions, i.e. the drugs potentiate and can paradoxically amplify whatever pre-existing conditions the kids might have had.

Will not help, as many employers will not hire from many lower-ranked "accredited" institutions, so graduates possessing even supposedly good degrees, such as engineering, will still be hosed.

Simplest solution would be to cap federally-guaranteed loans to 8 or 10K/year/4 years. It would "magically" bring down tuition at many (most) schools to that number. Also, abolishing of SJW-producing departments (gender, ethnic studies) would help, but that has to be done at state level.

Tim Aurora says

What is Germany to do?.

Learn how to defend themselves.

drBu says

SJW-producing departments

Respectfully, I would not abolish those departments, but rather put them in perspective, like art history. There are different ways of looking at the world, and it's useful to take a class in art history and a class in critical studies, but I don't perceive a dire shortage of degrees in either field. Your suggestion to cap federally guaranteed loans would work better than banning departments, especially if the guarantee can be further limited based on % who repay (or can be made to repay) during some number of years after graduation.

curious2 says

incidence of psychotropic Rx in these students

I think that in top ranked schools at doctorate level about a third to a half of students are on prescribed psychotropic medications.

With respect to undergraduates, probably less are on "prescribed" psychotropics, but many use Adderall (which is both stimulant and anti-ADD drug) non-medically to be able to concentrate.

From literature: up to 30% of college students use Adderall non-medically. The numbers vary significantly by school, with the greatest proportion of users at private and "elite" universities.

There's already "White Feminists move aside and let us take over" all over Feminism. This is great!

Driving allies away to where? Trump is considered a Nationalist: someone who generally ascribes loyalty to the nation-state, as opposed to other group interests. Although he is not purely Nationalistic. Europe leaders are primarily Globalist: advocating immigration, global governance, interventionism and free trade. Interestingly, the greatest resistance to Europe's position are the former Soviet Bloc Nations such as Hungary, Poland etc.
In any case, no one is surprised by Trump's position as he made it abundantly clear all through out his campaign...in fact his motto remains "Make America great again". Clearly Nationalistic overtures.
What remains to be seen, is if his policies can garnish positive results as he envisions. The US does not have the global dominance it once had, much of it lost incidentally through globalization. Frankly, I feel the Bush's were more Globalists, and naturally Clinton and Obama also.
