And it is not like they haven’t been warned … In the 40-some-odd years since the Libertarian Party took such positions, we’ve seen the end of sodomy laws, the end of officially sanctioned government discrimination against gay employees, both civilian and military—and with Obergefell v. Hodges, the end of government bans on same-sex marriage recognition. We’ve seen the end of just about every government policy that treats gay and lesbian

E Pluribus Unum: As long as we are getting rid of state-sponsored symbols of separatism … [Darleen Click]
Time to move beyond the Confederate Battle Flag While many Southerners object that the flag simply proclaims the battlefield honor of those who were defending their homeland, the Confederacy was so entwined with the idea of preserving slavery that the flag, even today, can evoke racial polarization. For all the Southern patriots who understandably see in the Confederate battle flag the historical resonance of Pickett’s Charge or the resistance to

#WrongSkin “We’ve raised a generation that thirsts for the sainthood conferred by racial oppression.” [Darleen Click]
Leftists, in their long march through America’s institutions, have used the concept of “Race” and honed it into the fine-art of Balkinizing America in ways to make the KKK green with envy. While Martin Luther King and other civil rights leaders rightfully pushed for their seat at the table of America’s Constitutional rights, the Left seized the opportunity to push an agenda of aggrieved identity politics. Are you in the

Pity Joan Walsh of Salon, her racism does not allow blacks personal agency [Darleen Click]
I haven’t commented on the Baltimore, Freddie Gray, incident because I don’t know any more of the incident than has been reported and I know almost nothing about the city and its police department. I do know that with the filing of formal charges yesterday, the officers involved — whose “race” was never mentioned in any coverage — were revealed as three whites and three blacks. Which kind of puts

Compassionate Racism: the White Left Liberals dark vein [Darleen Click]
White Liberals have found the perfect way of keeping those darkies in their place demonstrating how much they care about black children — “restorative justice”!! New York public-school students caught stealing, doing drugs or even attacking someone can avoid suspension under new “progressive” discipline rules adopted this month. Most likely, they will be sent to a talking circle instead, where they can discuss their feelings. Convinced traditional discipline is racist

NOT The Onion: “We must dismantle the tyranny of the white male syllabus.” [Darleen Click]
I’m going to post the whole thing because … because … I’m in awe (and not in a good way) … Remember now, this is the nation’s number one ranked public university: We are calling for an occupation of syllabi in the social sciences and humanities. This call to action was instigated by our experience last semester as students in an upper-division course on classical social theory. Grades were based

Progressives and Islamists — rooting out blasphemy of utmost importance for both [Darleen Click]
Remember the ironically-named “Truthy Project”? Internal emails obtained by the Washington Free Beacon through a public records request from Indiana University about “Truthy” reveal that the school monitored “hate tweets” and shunned media outlets critical of the project after details of the federally-funded study were made public last year. Officials called a Free Beacon reporter a “faux journalist” for reporting on the taxpayer-funded project designed to root out “misinformation” and

Racist incident revealed to be a hoax; University of Chicago shrugs [Darleen Click]
Because the political agenda behind the hoax is something they embrace. A University of Chicago student who claimed his Facebook page was hacked and filled with racist and violent messages against him and another student has now admitted he faked the attack. Intended to shame the school into making drastic changes around race and speech on campus, the hoax appears to have worked. The students behind the ruse, the hoodwinked

This is what a Feminist looks like — The university system as The Village of the Damned [Darleen Click]
Brendan O’Neill on the death of Free Speech in the UK. Have you met the Stepford students? They’re everywhere. On campuses across the land. Sitting stony-eyed in lecture halls or surreptitiously policing beer-fuelled banter in the uni bar. They look like students, dress like students, smell like students. But their student brains have been replaced by brains bereft of critical faculties and programmed to conform. To the untrained eye, they
