IMHO, Americans returning from WWII went way too easy on the chilluns. After what they lived through, some protesting youths were of little concern. Then the VN war got twisted up, and they were still quiet. They didn’t realize it was stage 1 cancer. It’s now stage 3.

There is no safer space than an American college campus.

I'm not so sure about that. When I attended University of Maryland, there were police drawing posters in the bathrooms warning women about a sexual molester who had assaulted some women on campus.

At UC Davis, I felt unsafe when a woman claimed that she was raped on campus. That incident, however, turned out to be a hoax--she had not studied for an exam, or something silly like that. At UC Davis, you could call campus security for an escort at night; I never did, and nothing ever happened there. Most of the campus crime was bicycle theft.

Problem is - a lot of students don’t actually benefit from their education - they major in AA or Women’s studies or some other worthless endeavor. No wonder they can’t afford to pay off the loans and want someone else to pay for it.

First thing I saw was her shirt (God is a black woman). That is really offensive. I spent the last 20 minutes in a fetal position in my safe space with my blankey.

What does ‘trigger’ even mean anyways? I keep on hearing it being used, but other than ‘I’m having bad memories right now; please be patient and understand my troubles,’ I don’t know what it means. Usually the person who’s used that word with me acknowledged that they were having some problems and wanted to better themselves.

When I was 18 years old, I reported to boot camp at Parris Island, SC. I suffered "micro-aggressions" immediately upon leaving the bus and planting my feet on the yellow footsteps on the sidewalk outside the receiving barracks.

I would love to go back to boot camp with these losers, just to see how quickly some of them wash out and start hollering for their mamas.

A lot of micro-aggressions in this letter.
