Campus bans Sept. 11 memorial for 'bias' against Muslims

Administrators at Ripon College in Wisconsin have ruled that a Sept. 11 memorial cannot take place on campus because it may offend Muslim students.

The private school cited bias reports that were filed during last year’s Sept. 11 memorial project, a project that was a part of Young America's Foundation’s iconic patriotism initiative which takes place across the country on campuses every year.

The school's Bias Protocol Board said the project creates an “environment” where “students from a Muslim background would feel singled out and/or harassed.” As a result, Ripon students will not be allowed to hang flyers as part of their vigil to remember the victims of Sept. 11.

According to YAF, administrators claimed that one of their objections is “because radical Islamist terrorism ‘represents a small percentage of the terrorist attacks that happened to this country, and they don’t represent the full gamut, and they show a very small picture of a specific religion or nationality instead of the larger viewpoint.’”

A Fishrrman fearless prediction:

The time will come (perhaps not too far into the future) in which the leftists/democrat-communists actually try to write the event of September 11, 2001... out of the history books.

So long as it remains in them, the implications of the events of that day are more damaging to their agenda than are all the remaining statues and monuments of the Old South...

Accurately describing real Muslim culture, history, and practice, is anti Muslim bias.
That is, failing to lie about the tenants of Islam and the failure to sugarcoat actual real Islamic practice, is racist.

There is no doubt about it.

We need to cut taxpayer funding to them.

In the future, perhaps one might remember, stories like this can go into the Health/Education forum.

 College deems students’ 9/11 ‘Never Forget’ posters bias incident for highlighting Islamic terrorism

College bias team rebukes students’ 9/11 ‘Never Forgot’ posters as inflammatory, unacceptable

A group of conservative students at Ripon College have been told their 9/11 “Never Forget” posters violate the school’s bias policy, citing the fact that its imagery is exclusively focused on Islamic terrorism.

At a meeting Tuesday between members of the Young America’s Foundation and the campus bias response team, a school official said the posters focus “relentlessly on one religious organization, one religious group, one religious identity–in associating that one religious identity with terrorist attacks which go back far before 9/11 and after 9/11–creates for some students here an environment which they feel like they are not able to learn,” according to an audio recording of the meeting obtained by YAF.
