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..
