My thoughts? A bunch whiners who would be better served in pulling up their big boy and big girl pants, focus on getting their education, and get the f*** over it!
Mizzou students feel offended and oppressed over the statue of former President Thomas Jefferson in the Show-Me-State. These members are a multicultural group of young people who think that Jefferson symbolizes white supremacy. What are your thoughts. I personally think this PC thing is getting out of hand even for me.
It's been way beyond "out of hand" for more than a decade.

50 Students?
Maybe there are some seats available on the next MH17 flight to Ukraine.
I think maybe these students should concentrate on the multiple Rape Cover ups by the University over the last 6-7 years then a stupid Thomas Jefferson Statue
One of many cases by the university of Missouri
You may be onto something. Maybe it's the oppressive Jefferson statue that is the rapist!
After reading what -- hundreds? -- of these kinds of threads, I would not be surprised if protests and "political correctness" eventually lead to the elimination of anything remotely controversial. I am now imagining a future not too far where everyone will be living and working in gray prison-like buildings, with no art to be seen or music to be heard; and schools, except for the children of the wealthy and powerful, will be non-existent except as places to teach those skills that must still be done by human hands.
The future as portrayed in books and movies such as "Hunger Games" may not be just fiction in a couple of decades or so.

Maybe these delicate flowers, who constantly seek out new ways to be offended and oppressed, should find another place to go to school. Or better yet, leave this horribly oppressive country and seek out Utopia. Cuba comes to mind. No doubt they already own the required Che t-shirts.
Who knows how far it could go. Future students might be taught that MLK is the father of their country, "New America" (like the New South Africa) as opposed to the illegitimate Apartheid America which existed before him, run by racists like Washington and Jefferson.
That's kinda the truth........... Non whites , and women had no rights and couldn't vote in a DEMOCRACY..... Equal rights and justice for all...... Unless your nonwhite and female. So your quote is correct. But hey.... It works for you so roll with it.

I think us whites should all find statues of black, racist leaders (ie Malcolm X) and protest that it makes us feel offended and oppressed. I think a good place to start would be to organize a Million Man March outside of Chicago's Malcolm X college. Sound good? Lets turn the tide on these whiny babies. Then after that lets find and exploit any other situation possible. Every black-on-white crime should result in riots and marches, too! Man, theres gonna be A LOT of protests in our future.

I think they should pick a different institution to attend.
