Good grief!!!! I'd like to vote Missouri out of the SEC. This might be the stupidest thing I've read this year.
Now that the campus blacks forced the president of the university to resign, in a demonstration of embarrassing obsequiousness, U of M cops sent out a campus wide e-mail advising students to call them if they get their feelings hurt by what they termed "hurtful" speech. They followed that idiocy with this," if it is an emergency occurrence of "hurtful speech" call 911"
Hahahaha, "emergency hurt-speech". I've heard it all now.
Ex:
"911 response, what's your emergency"?
"Um yeah, like my astronomy professor used the term "black hole" to describe objects at the center of most galaxies and I feel like that term might be hurtful to sex workers of color in our community. And because hearing it like denied my right to a safe space in which to learn, I'd like the professor arrested and like fired. We don't need that kind of unkindness at U of Missouri."

Neel Kolhatka's video on YouTube, "Modern Educayshun", speaks to this very point. I did not know whether to laugh or cry ... so I did both.

Yeah, I've watched that. The state of American campuses is sad indeed.
