An Open Letter to Every Parent in America - From a Columbia professor

[question everything]

1. Liberty

They should send their children to Liberty University. The evangelicals support them, and hope the ensuing war will bring the second coming.

2. Isn't the foundation of any university, the promulgation of ALL points of view?

[question everything]

3. As he asked: will marching for the KKK or for ISIS will be tolerated?

[SickOfTheOnePct]

4. Terrorist points of view?

How about racist points of view? Transphobic? Homophobic?

No one would expect Columbia to permit a pro-KKK rally, but many seem to think it’s fine to permit a pro-Hamas rally.

5. Seriously?

It’s one thing to expose people to different points of view, no matter how hateful; it’s another to implicitly condone hateful points of view by not condemning them. This guy knows what happens when both sides are presumed equal; he’s lived it, unlike most of his (frankly pampered) students. As we are seeing, it doesn’t take much to re-ignite and normalize hatred against Jews, even in this country.

Given the current situation of abject cowardice among most of our politicians, I have to admire someone who is willing to put everything on the line to stand up for what he truly believes is right.

[Sympthsical]

6. There's just something wrong at our universities

It has become increasingly obvious over time that a decadent ideological rot was allowed to settle in and make itself comfortable.

At least it's out in the open now. Unfortunate it took recent events to lance the boil.

Watching various college administrations act terrified of the authoritarians-in-training has certainly been edifying.
