Students Suspended Over 9/11 Poster Because It MIGHT OFFEND MUSLIMS

September 13, 2016| by Robert Gehl

A campus Republican club at Sewanee: The University of the South was suspended after it put up 9/11 memorial posters that administrators said would arouse hatred towards Muslims.

The posters in question simply show photos of eight different acts of violence by Islamic radials (such as 9/11, the USS Cole attack, and the Orlando nightclub massacre) along with the words “Never Forget” in the middle. The poster was created by the conservative Young America’s Foundation, and has been used by student groups at several universities, The Daily Caller is reporting.

Sewanee College Republicans President Amir Kamrani told The Daily Caller News Foundation his group requested permission to put up the posters, but was denied. Kamrani said a member of the group was told by Assistant Dean of Students Hagi Bradley the poster was unacceptable because it “invokes hate towards Muslims,” a claim Kamrani dismissed.

The school just got hoisted on their own petard. They think Muslims are responsible for 9/11.

Exactly.

Terrorism has nothing to do with Islam... oh... but that poster depicting terrorism is clearly anti-Islamic!

Pshaw.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Not to mention the implication that Muslims are terrorists also implies the school supports that by willing to make sure they aren't offended.

Should someone call Homeland Security?
The Republic is lost.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

― Samuel Adams
