Evergreen Student: ‘I’ve been told I’m not allowed to speak because I’m white’
Legal insurrection ^ | July 14, 2017 | Mike LaChance

“If you offer any sort of alternative viewpoint, which I do have, and you’re kind of the enemy,” MacKenzie said. She continued, “I don’t agree with the behavior that has been shown on the campus and unlike what Anne Fischel [a previous speaker] has said, I think it’s important to focus on the way this was handled.”

“This behavior has actually been encouraged and because of this I feel like people are becoming more violent and the campus is becoming more of an unsafe place,” she said. “I have been to several meetings to speak. I’ve been told several times that I’m not allowed to speak because I’m white,” she said.

“This school seems to focus so much on race that it is actually becoming more racist in a different sort of way. And because I say that—because I choose not to focus on race I have actually been labeled a racist and a white supremacist. If anyone took the time to actually know me, it’s not true at all.”

They don’t want your opinion. They want your money. Then they want to eliminate you. And replace you with those who you have been supporting all your working life.

Question: who will supply the money when Whitey is reduced to a whimpering pulp, without job, without self-esteem, without money? Eh? It ain’t gonna be non-Whitey!

And they will still call all Whites racist when the leftist goal has been reached of making Whitey a poor, powerless, submissive out-of-work blob.

The products of our institutions, in particular our socialist government schools. it will get worse.

Typical conservative/Christian response to the Bernie academies converting 80-90% of children to humanism: hand wringing, then nothing.

McKenzie seems to be getting a clue. There-in lies the danger for the left. They have definitely jumped the shark. Policies so insane they create more of what you say you’re fighting will lead others to see the stupidity of it all.

Take a close look. They want your money. YOU are paying for the privilege of being told you are: racist/ homophobic/ sexist/ you name it. YOU pay THEM money. All you have to do to not be a victim is RUN SCREAMING.

This is why it is pointless and self defeating to engage with these people in the first place. It's like trying to find middle ground with cancer cells. They have indicated that they have no respect at all for our rights, so we have absolutely no reason to respect theirs.

When encountering these people in life, the best response to their demands (if any) is "I don't care". Regard them as you would a child who wants candy for dinner.

Lawless bands roamed the campus unimpeded. Police were physically and intentionally blocked by protestors. Police were cruelly, systematically and personally taunted. They were humiliated and forced to stand down by the president. Students that held different opinions were, by the protestors own analysis, stalked, harassed … their names, pictures, addresses, and phone numbers were distributed online …

Do you know that although the code of conduct is supposed to protect all of us, that Dr. Bridges decided to selectively suspend it, giving some students license to threaten others.



Apparently they are operating under the belief of "Since you violated us with your different opinions we are forced to attack you in self-defense and it's illegal for you to fight back."

It's going to be a real hoot if the Nazis-In-Waiting try that here in Texas.

They will be cuffed and stuffed for a free ride Downtown.

Yep. That bike lock professor is going to get to meet real-life Nazis in the slammer.

Black racism is just as vile as the white variety, but blacks want revenge along with theirs. They always have.

Thank you for referencing that article lowbridge. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

One problem with this Evergreen State College issue is that the student doesn’t seem to know her 14th Amendment (14A) protections as they relate to 1st Amendment-protect free speech in this example.

”14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

Another problem with this issue is this. Even though the states gave Congress the 14A express power to strengthen the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens, citizen-students in public schools in this example, we can expect the do-nothing, RINO-controlled Congress to sit on its hands and ignore unconstitutional state abridgment of students’ constitutional rights, evidenced by corrupt Congress likewise letting pro-LGBT activist states get away with harassing citizens with religious convictions during the lawless Obama Administration.

Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!

Remember in November ’18 !

Since Pres. Trump entered the ’16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.

Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.

Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February ‘18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.

While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably haven’t been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.

Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.

Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed below.

If I was a student speaking to the trustees, my statement would have been:

The current environment at Evergreen is similar to the Cultural Devolution in China. Yes, I did say devolution. It is now disfunctional, with mob rule, witch hunts, and general anarchy. All with the implied approval of the administration.
Evergreen is so far gone, the only way to fix it would be by bulldozer and wrecking ball. At this point, Evergreen is damaged goods.

Interesting that president of Evergreen, Dr. Bridges, has an M.A. in criminology from the University of Pennsylvania.

From Wikipedia:
“While completing his doctoral work, he served five years as a social scientist in the U.S. Department of Justice in the staff office of the United States Attorney General (over the Ford, Carter and Reagan Administrations). One of his roles was Assistant Administrator of the Federal Justice Research Program, conducting, designing and funding research on federal legal policy.”

“Bridges’ scholarly work has examined crime and its measurement as well as law and the administration of law and justice. He has published articles in leading professional journals and several books on these subjects. He studies the causes of racial disparities in imprisonment, identifying the mechanisms by which perceptual biases of racial and ethnic minorities give rise to disproportionately punitive outcomes for minority defendants in criminal cases. These studies of his prompted changes in the laws of state of Washington and federal legal policies on the administration of juvenile justice.”
