POLL: 1/3 of millennials say ‘safe spaces’ ‘absolutely necessary’
Campus Reform ^ | May 26, 2017 | Anthony Gockowski

Recent surveys show that many college students feel “less safe” in the wake of Donald Trump’s election and consider safe spaces “absolutely necessary” to the functioning of college campuses.

A LendEDU poll, for instance, asked 1,659 American college students whether they “agree with colleges campuses establishing safe spaces,” determining that 36 percent of respondents believe safe spaces “are absolutely necessary.”

There are no safe spaces in corporate America, only cutthroat competition. Suck it up, snowflakes. Because right now you’re all unemployable regardless of your parchment.

What is appalling is a public service message on the tv this morning.

I heard, but did not see it. Voices said, “I know what you think when sit next to me on the plane, (and other places), how uncomfortable you are. We need to have a dialogue.”

To which I say, my thoughts are none of your damn business.

The left is nothing more than a bunch of totalitarian wannabes who are going to be crushed once people stop putting up with this nonsense.

Poor little snowflakes. They can’t survive in the real world. Perhaps they should end it all.

They have an app for that--.gov guarantees income, housing, health care etc. etc. etc.

Anyone who wants to deny them their "rights" is a right wing fascist, obviously. :-(

I don’t think we’re far from the day when a college degree will be considered a down marker on job applications.

Identify the 1/3 and then send names and numbers to all HR departments in the country so the 1/3 stays in its safe space.

If way too many in that generation ever comes face to face with life’s REAL adversity, they will cry out for help and if someone else doesn’t save them, they will sit down and die. Count on it.

All the social tricks and schemes in the world won’t put food in your belly when the food is no longer going from farm to market. The idiots in Venezuela are trying to understand this concept. They’ve apparently not been able to figure this out in South Africa either. Apparently this important datum is unknown to 1/3 of college students.

The world is a tough place. See how effective your safe spaces are when some crazed Jihadis invade your campus. They’ll go through your poossy antifa like shyt through a goose.

Can someone tell me what the crap is a “safe space”? Is that the place as a really little kid you were told to go stand in the corner for “time out”? So is a safe space like standing in the corner? I’m serious.

WHat do they feel less safe from? Muslim terrorists? Guns? (I thought all college campuses are gun free zones???)

Would they even feel "less safe" if people were allowed to ccw in college campuses?

I’m technically at the beginning of the millennial cohort, and I can tell you that on average, millennials are going to do so big things for this country. But this type of stuff is down right silly. This is a minority of millennials, trust me.

On the other hand, I can’t think of a more selfish, egotistical, reckless, and self-centered generation than the baby boomers. They had everything handed to them on a silver platter and ruined it for all of us.

Snowflakes are going to need them because regular Americans are pissed and we are going to root the grifting, communist freeloaders from our institutions. We will do so because we must if we are ever to be free.

And we won World War II how?

I'm not sure we did. I'll check...

Has anyone noticed that after the Soviet Union fell that America let its guard down and the filthy leftists went wild infiltrating and subverting everything? We need to retake our institutions like education, government, etc. or we are lost.

If this sample is our future, we will be destroyed. Then again, that’s the exact plan of social engineering. These sh*heads read Orwell and do not see the irony and hypocrisy of themselves and the fact the snowflakes are being used as pawns.

They should surround the safe spaces with a high fence topped with barbed wire...then lock them securely so nobody else can get in ;-)
