Ha ha

Maybe they should have their own dorms where they will be safe from such things. Don't laugh. That has already happened at Berkeley among other schools.

I don't know where to start with this.  Call me naïve but I thought our campus was pretty damn inclusive. $100M endowment???  Would this group like free massages on Wednesday's to go along with these "demands"?

How about lowering the flag at half staff when any unarmed person of any race is shot and killed? I say this in sarcasm.

I am all about making things better and addressing issues but this has got to a point of getting rediculous. There are real issues here. However, there are those with political agendas painting a narrative to serve them and their purposes.

Since we are issuing demands, mine are two martinis with a message with a happy ending daily.

I'd really like to hear Bob's thoughts on this.

They can get a good education in Havana and it cost a lot less and no discrimination at all with communism. Maybe I should send them a note?

A befitting acronym:  BS!

If you want to sell a car at $20,000, sticker it at $25,000 and negotiate.

Or what? What happens if the demands are not met? 

 

[RollToad]

3 people are "demanding" stuff from TCU? Go scheiss yourselves.

 

[froginaustin]

Grammar is a little shaky in some of those demands . . .
 
 
 
Is saying that hate speech or a micro-aggression?  Honest question in that I have no idea how these students would answer it.
 
Is -- "Sometimes students should talk less and listen more." -- hate speech or micro-aggression?  Don't know.

If we do not hear something regarding our demands within 20 days, various forms of escalation will take place until some if not all of our demands are met.

Also, dibs on the team name "various forms of escalation" for next year's fantasy football league.

The people behind BLM...black lives are tangential to its real goals:

If you want to sell a car at $20,000, sticker it at $25,000 and negotiate.

But be sure you own the car first.

Yep, but they will succeed simply by being normal.
