University of Missouri Police Ask Students to Report ‘Hurtful Speech’ | Mediaite (http://www.mediaite.com/online/university-of-missouri-police-ask-students-to-report-hurtful-speech/)
:rolleyes:
great, we are raising people to find and take offense and never learn tolerance. how tolerant of us. :slap:
The Missouri University Police Department (MUPD) sent an email to students Tuesday morning urging them to call them and report any hurtful speech they encounter on the campus.
In an email that was flagged by several Missouri-based journalists, the MUPD asked “individuals who witness incidents of hateful and/or hurtful speech or actions” to call the department’s general phone line “to continue to ensure that the University of Missouri campus remains safe.” They suggest that students provide a detailed description of the offender, their location or license plate number, and even to take a picture if possible.
I'm offended by the Email.

It seems to be more and more rampant on college campuses that students seem to feel they have a constitutional right to not be exposed to anything they decide is offensive. Faculty and administrators then give in to this and make these schools of higher learning among the most intolerant institutions in the country. What a shock for them when they graduate and have to go out in the big bad nasty world where nobody gives a flying feck what they find offensive.

Congratulations Missouri... you have reached an entirely new level of stupid.
a prison guard was once asked about how 4 guards could watch over 100 inmates. he noted that the crazy ones don't organize, so 4 guards was plenty.

My dad and his wife are huge MU boosters, season ticket holders, and his wife gives the MU medical school something like $20k/year. They. Are. Livid.
I've talked to a few people today, they asked me what I thought, forgetting that I went to UMR (Rolla, engineering University of Missouri campus) and not MU (Columbia). It's so ridiculous, but they have totally screwed the pooch on this one. Many many many alumni are scorchingly angry about this.

MU has always been a progressive train wreck of a campus. Journalism school for crying out loud. And probably half the people at the "protest" yesterday weren't even students. But the "poop swastika" thing that set the latest bit of outrage off appears to be a hoax (http://thefederalist.com/2015/11/10/was-the-poop-swastika-incident-at-mizzou-a-giant-hoax/). You simply can't make this shit up. They were literally outraged over a story about a poop swastika that didn't even happen, but certainly had to be racially motivated. Why the school admins didn't just laugh in their faces is beyond my limited comprehension.

There's a bit of a conspiracy theory about the timing of all this. There were allegations that members of the football team raped a 19 year old student, and they were trying to downplay all this when she committed suicide. I am so not into the fact that I'm supposed to go to the Tennessee/Mizzou game and the Mizzou/Arkansas game. Ugh, I don't even want to think about it right now.

My Mother in Law RAISED HELL when her college stopped printing 'Easter' on the Alumni Calendar. I believe she stopped sending checks.
It's the only time I have heard that woman cuss. She said 'This is Bullshit' :wow::Jeff '79:
I think this is a great opportunity for all the conservative students to use the system against the liberal idiots.
Each time they are referred to in a negative, derogatory or uncivil manner they need to call the number and demand protection.
Any professor that's shows a liberal bias and is condescending to conservatives they need to report.
Use this people.
