Pocket Constitutions “Oppressive”?!

Video: Vassar College Officials Shred “Oppressive” Pocket Constitutions

Via sauced07

University officials personally destroyed pocket constitutions after an undercover reporter posing as a student claimed she felt “triggered” by their circulation on campus. Vassar College’s Kelly Grab implied that restricting the distribution of pocket constitutions was perfectly acceptable if such censorship prevents hurt feelings amongst students.

“…We don’t want to limit people in exchanging ideas or having opposing viewpoints, but when it’s disruptive or causing harm…,” she told the Project Veritas reporter.

After claiming the pocket constitution gave her a “panic attack,” the reporter asked Grab if she could shred it for her, to which she cheerfully agreed.

“…Yes, I think we have a shredder in the front office there,” Grab replies. “Did you want to do it with me?”

I wonder if Mao’s Little Red Book, Mein Kampf and Das Kapital are thought of in the same vein?  Probably not.  If they are known to the offended college student at all, they are probably revered!
Even more sickening is the allegedly ‘educated’ ‘adult’ university official.
For-the-record, I’m all about learning about and expressing ‘diverse’ opinions.  But one of the principles on which this Republic was founded involved allowing others to speak their truths – even if disgusting to ourselves!
Obviously, this college official didn’t get that message…
(and yes, I know Info Wars is sometimes a questionable source)

  2. It would be really interesting to see if the same thing would happen with Mein Kampf…

  3. “I would like to shred this copy of “Earth in the Balance” because that Al Gore guy who wrote it freaks me out.”

    See how that one goes over.
