Virginia Tech Student to Petition Changing Historical Church into Mosque because of “Oppression”
Pundit Press ^ | 2/24/15 | Aurelius

A Virginia Tech student has announced that he will be petitioning the college to change the historic War Memorial Chapel into a Mosque because of perceived “oppression” of Muslims.

Posting on Facebook, the student outlined his plans on the Virginia Tech class of 2018 page. Screenshots were taken by a member of the group and the students’ names have been hidden to keep them anonymous.

The student believes that converting the Church into a Mosque will “play an essential role in improving the campus:”

Mosque 1

Explaining why he believes this to be true, the student explained, "having a chapel in the center of campus oppresses other minority religions.  Since Muslims are oppressed due to Americans being mostly racist (especially here in the south) there should be a mosque there specifically:"

Mosque 2

Who is oppressing muslims in the US right now? In fact, where are muslims being oppressed anywhere in the world? It would be more correct to say that muslims are oppressing everyone else.

Sounds like somebody has a bee up in where the sun don't shine.

Doesn’t sound like an actual muzzie, just more proof that lefties & muzzies go together like henna & falafel.

Notice that Christianity is their common declared enemy?

As a VT alumni I will keep an eye on this.

I suspect it is nothing but “twitter-bragging”, but one never knows.

I will certainly not sit by and let that Chapel be converted to a mosque without a fight.

Living proof that liberalism is a mental illness.

Here’s a link to a brief history of the War Memorial Chapel:

Only an anti-U.S. asshole would want to convert it in to t mosque.

The LIV’s so desperately want attention to the point of being slaves and possibly having their hands and heads cut off. The mental illness in our universities is astounding...

It is really an indication of the deception the world is suffering under right now.

It is high time for a Divine wake-up call.

All my money goes to VT (2 students, 3 in 1.5 yrs) and they do this and my kids will be withdrawn the next day.

This self-loathing masochistic piece of flesh feels that he ‘is oppressed’????

Here’s an equation for this ‘wussy’ to noodle:

2 off-season fullbacks
1 self-loathing masochistic waste of gene pool student
1 woodshed supplied with hickory sticks

The rest I leave open for fertile minds to explore.

Well this person certainly missed out on an undergraduate education. If the lack of a mosque is “oppressive” and discriminatory they should have chosen a school without a chapel or with a mosque. Moron. But then of course they aren’t really a moron. They’re following the blueprint for taking everything over.

My husband, a pilot, was deadheading in first class on a plane that was delayed by a late passenger. When he finally got on and the hosties gave him some flack about delaying the flight even more by not getting off his phone, he started screaming at them that he was trying to decide which city to buy. IIRC, it was Minni or Pittsburgh. (He was a muslim). He didn’t mean a ticket either. He meant buy the city. That was way back around 2005. Of course we know now they’ve also bought D.C.
