University Of Minnesota Student Government Rejects 9/11 Remembrance Because It Would Violate Safe Space

Tuesday, the University of Minnesota student government rejected a resolution for a moment of remembrance that would honor all of those men and women who died on September 11th for all future 9/11 anniversaries, because it might cause an islamophobic sentiment on campus.

From Campus Reform:

“The passing of this resolution might make a space that is unsafe for students on campus even more unsafe,” said Algadi, “Islamophobia and racism fueled through that are alive and well.”

Algadi added that holding a moment of recognition over a tragedy committed by non-white perpetrators could increase racist attitudes on campus, asking, “When will we start having moments of silence for all of the times white folks have done something terrible?”

That’s it. I’m done with everyone. Do you guys remember when the internet was full of humorous and entertaining news, pictures, and videos? Me neither. This recent barrage of political correctness and outrage has wiped my mind clean and killed any enjoyment I ever had for this job. I remember I used to wake up every morning excited to come into the office, write about some kid trying to fuck a shampoo bottle or punch a man-eating shark in the face, post a few funny videos and some pictures of chicks in bikinis and call it a day. What a life!

But no more. The world wide web and country at large has been hijacked by social justice warrior terrorists and the fun police. I’m one more “safe space” away from going full “Into the Wild,” venturing off into the Alaskan frontier, and never interacting with another human being again. I just need to remember to avoid any and all berries as well. Fuck the direction college campuses are going right now.

Preach, Barry.

    There is a difference between political correctness and basic decency and respect that is growing more clear with each passing day.

      Apparently Algadi doesn’t share the same view as you. Also fuck Algadi

      It is almost as bad as UC Irvine or one of the UC’s deciding to ban the US flag from the school because it represented “hatred” and “supremacy”. Shocker, the “student council” was made up and lead by a group of leftist liberal minorities including the president who wasn’t even an American citizen. My issue is what we are taught in history classes from grade school to basically political science classes: that we (Americans, in particular white) are guilty for every wrong doing and should be willing to give to all minority or social requests now so that we aren’t “white supremacists”. It’s ridiculous. Liberals realize that they can bully and most conservatives will be too afraid to stand up to it.

        I go to UCI and this is so true. Our school has only gotten worse since that day and I’m sad to say I’m not even proud to go here anymore. Most recently they banned the border patrol from coming to the career fair because it would violate the safe space of illegal immigrants. This is going to sounds basic, but I just can’t even anymore.

      Minnesota is fucking awesome. Unfortunately we have had an influx of hipsters because The Northwest got too expensive to live in. We have also have a ton of Somalis that escaped the civil war there. Why they came to the coldest state in the union, I have no idea.

        Also, allowed Al Franken to literally steal an election victory from Norm Coleman.

    The people who claim that this would cause islamophobia are the same people who claim that Muslims aren’t responsible for 9/11. Not honoring the innocent dead to coddle people who might get offended is so disrespectful and absolutely shameful. What a fucking world we live in nowadays.

      What’s funny is that muslims, recently, have been known for raiding villages/tribes and taking black slaves in Sudan, but everyone insists that owning slaves is only a “white” thing, even though that hasn’t been the case in centuries.

        Africans used to enslave and still do other Africans before the Europeans did. Slavery was taught to the Portuguese by Africans, and then it became the norm

      There are more slaves in Africa right now than there ever were in both North and South America.

    Of course they’re trying not to offend Islamic people. I mean the largest number of Islamic state members/recruits living within the US are 5 miles down the road. Talk about a bunch of liberal pansies.

    Stop posting this shit. Seriously. I’m just tired of hearing it. Let those PC fucks have their own little world. All of their dumb bullshit doesn’t effect the way I live my life as a normal American citizen and it never will. Posting stuff like this non-stop all day is just going to continue to piss all of us off. Nothing we say or do will change their attitude because that’s how these types of people are. Just let them be fucking crazy in their own little pathetic world.

      Completely disagree w/ u. There is definitely something that can be done about it. The problem is that us fraternity men actually are already in our own little world. The GDIs are gonna take over the god damn university system if Greek Life does not do something about it. Our organizations have a very polarizing affect on campuses, but we all will one day cease to exist if their is nothing that we do about it. WAKE THE FUCK UP.

      PS watch PC University with Jeremy Piven, love that movie it very much holds true today

      I came to that realization today while thinking about the Missouri shit. It’s just so insane and crazy, that I just don’t care anymore. Let them make their protests and spew their ignorant hatred, the rest of the world can move on and when we talk to them later, we can say “I’d like fries with that please.”

      You can’t be correct and ignorant. Taking this route will eventually turn you into them – outright denying opposition and believing your position is the ultimate truth. Be better, hear all sides, but it doesn’t mean you have to agree.

      If we try to shield ourselves from this bullshit just because it upsets us, then we’re no better than these liberal pussies.
