“Bricks belong best thrown at pig heads!” said an Antifa student group at the University of Texas at Austin, reported The Daily Caller News Foundation. This same group also hosts weekly “self-defense” classes.
The Revolutionary Student Front is a UT Austin Antifa group that describes itself as an “organization for revolutionary anti-capitalist students in Austin, Texas.” The group announced “we’re starting back up our weekly self-defense classes this weekend,” including “elements of physical fitness, individual self-defense, anti-fascist/demonstration defense, and women’s self-defense.”
Defense, defense, defense…right above a picture with soldiers bearing the same sickle-hammer that represents the deaths of 20 million civilians. Hmmm…I can’t help but think Antifa, the same group that views “hate speech” as assault, also has a different definition of “self-defense,” particularly when that same group, the Revolutionary Student Front, also tweeted “bricks best belong thrown at pig heads!”
In fact, Texas, which, for many Americans, stands defiant as a beacon of free speech, gun rights, etc. seems to be experiencing an Antifa infestation. Last month, I reported on UT Austin’s Autonomous Student Network, which suggested Law Enforcement Appreciation Day be renamed Law Enforcement Incineration Day, supports doxxing, and thinks it’s woke to assassinate the president.
And make no mistake — these angsty, wannabe revolutionaries aren’t just pro-violence and anti-capitalist. They’re for tearing down America and attribute anything that doesn’t feed their upper-middle class entitlement to the mythical, ubiquitous SYSTEM that must be destroyed by any means necessary. But what will replace evil, money-grubbing America? Other than vague descriptions of anarchist utopias with diversity and equality for all, these crybullies don’t have a clue.
Former Obama Homeland Security Secretary and current University of California president Janet Napolitano released a statement saying the expansion of the “public charge” definition “sends a detrimental message internationally — that the United States does not want other countries to send their best and brightest here to study” and that the decision “raises questions about the true intent behind the federal government’s unnecessary and misguided action.”
Questions like why is Trump doing this, unless he’s a racist? No, the real question, Janet, is why you can’t understand basic security measures. Regardless of how much of a blast he might have, you don’t let a child ride a rollercoaster if he’s not a certain height. Similarly, it doesn’t matter how much “diversity” an immigrant will add to America if he’ll require a taxpayer safety net and also, since the two are related, negatively impact Americans with crime.
But Napolitano wasn’t the only unhappy camper after the “public charge” expansions. University of Texas, Austin employee Alex Wild tweeted a couple years ago calling Trump a Nazi.
Now, Alex is the curator of entomology at UT Austin, entomology being a fancy word for studying insects. And he seems to have adopted some of the behavior of his test subjects because, annoying as a gnat, he was back this week, tweeting “Shortly after Trump took office, I noted that Republicans were preparing an ethnic cleansing. Now, in 2019, I stand by that statement. Their thin, panicky public denials stand in stark contrast to their public messaging. And to the growing body count.”
I think he might be referring to the El Paso shooting here? And that’s where we are in our political discourse, folks, advocating for reasonable immigration restrictions now equals genocide.
PETA was not pleased after the University of Texas at Austin bull mascot charged the University of Georgia bulldog mascot, reported The Daily Caller.
The group apparently wrote letters to UTA and UGA, suggesting the schools stop using live-animal mascots. PETA senior vice president Lisa Lange said “It’s indefensible to subject animals to the stress of being packed up, carted from state to state, and paraded in front of a stadium full of screaming fans. It’s no surprise that a skittish steer would react to a perceived threat by charging.”
You know, I’m going to have to agree with CBS Sports reporter Barrett Sallee, who pointed out that he doesn’t think that a bulldog is much of a threat to a bull. Of course, it might’ve been a bit different if it were a pitbull — we know how frisky those can get.
PETA also kind of misses the point here because if you’re a fan of animal rights, you’d be hard-pressed to find creatures treated better than some of these mascots. That little UGA bulldog has an air-conditioned doghouse and sits on ice at games and some other schools’ mascots really live the life of luxury. Louisiana State University’s Mike the tiger reportedly gets a multimillion dollar home complete with a swimming pool, which is especially nice when you consider that the animal was donated to LSU by a rescue facility, according to Campus Reform.
LSU doesn’t even bring Mike out at games anymore, but that wasn’t enough for PETA, which wanted the school to get accredited to house the animal. It also wasn’t sufficient for more than a hundred thousand petitioners rounded up by Care2, which bills itself as a group working against “bigots, bullies, science deniers, misogynists, gun lobbyists, xenophobes, the willfully ignorant, animal abusers, frackers, and other mean people” by you know, ginning up social media lynch mobs to bully those it labels as such.
So the Young Conservatives of Texas group at UT Austin recently had the audacity to host a demonstration in SUPPORT of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, according to Campus Reform. Sarah Ogunmuyiwa, who’s apparently a former student government officer at the school, was NOT happy, stealing and ripping up the posters.
I’m not quite sure which I find more inspiring: progressives who understand that practicing tolerance and compassion sometimes involves sticky situations or the fact that it takes her only 14 tries to destroy two signs.
The protesters had signs reading “#MeToo gone #Too Far,” “no campus kangaroo courts in Congress,” “Kava-Not guilty,” along with a “change our mind” sign inviting dialogue, debate, OR the REALLY persuasive method of just tearing someone’s property to shreds.
I spoke with the school police department and they’re still investigating the situation, but honestly, those provocateurs should have been expelled.
The Young Conservatives chairman Saurabh Sharma — I DON’T feel bad mispronouncing his name because he’s probably a Nazi — HE said “it was also very clear that this started on the campus…this ethic of guilty [until] proven otherwise.”
That’s right: welcome to 2018, Saurabh — wake up and smell the extra soy coffee.
“[A counter-protester] was definitely the instigator for the violence, and she really kind of got up in our faces and even accidentally hit one of our members in the eye as she snatched the poster away,” he said.
Yeah, well, maybe you shouldn’t have supported rape culture. Anyway, my buddies over at the UT Austin Autonomous Student Network, you remember, the anarchocommunist group that suggested, instead of Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, Law Enforcement Incineration Day? Yeah, well they went online and posted the Young Conservatives’ names, photos, phone numbers, emails, and even job info, so maybe they’ll get fired. Dude, that would be so radical.
