Pro-Gun Parkland survivor Kyle Kashuv had his acceptance to Harvard revoked


N bomb enthusiast probably is a better description in the context of his acceptance being revoked

should sue

Fuck me, what a world we live in. Everything is being weaponized regardless of context, how much time has passed, maturity, etc. Anyone can be arbitrarily taken down.

Sue for what? They can rescind based on unknown poor behavior

You don't have to agree but it's up to them

He's not being prosecuted. He's losing out on an opportunity based on his behavior

I'm a benefit of the doubt and give people chances kind of guy when they show they are working on improving personally especially when we are talking young wanna be edgy kids but they are within their right to revoke

His privacy was invaded and a text from when he was a kid is now being used to deny him entry to college. A kid says nigger in private and it's ferreted out to destroy him by hateful individuals. Meanwhile, an elected politician refers to blacks as superpredators and hugs a person (Byrd) publically, who was literally a KKK member and the same people rooting for this kid to be destroyed have nothing to say about the latter.

I understand discouraging undesirable behavior, language, etc but this is an overreaction. I feel bad for kids regardless of the political side they will end up as grown-ups to have to walk on eggshells because one day some vindictive piece of shit wants to destroy them.

The federal government should just slash the $550 million we give each year to Harvard.
Does discriminating against Kashuv for his political ideology, using the pretense of his shitposting, violate the law? Nope
Can it be prosecuted as a civil or criminal offense? Definitely not.
But does it constitute the kind of discriminatory action that Trump cited as a reason to hit colleges in their coffers? Oh yeah
And its right up there with Harvard's discrimination against Asian applicants in admissions.

Pretty gross what Harvard and the SJW brigade are doing.

They have an office of "Office of Diversity and Inclusion"



Came here to say the guy who admitted to sharing the shooting video in NZ was sentenced to 21 months
