“He is allowed to wear the hat,” she wrote. “As a student, I disagree with what the hat represents. I have diverse friends (culturally and sexually) who would drop a class if the person wearing the hat was sitting in the room with them, because they would feel unsafe. Given the deeper issues of intolerance and oppression represented by the hat, I disagree with it.”

What!? "They would feel unsafe"? Aren't "they" the "aggressors" in this story? Does anyone care about the student wearing the hat? Does she realize that maybe if he walked into a class full of people of color and crazy extreme feminists that he might feel compelled to drop the class because of the tension in the air due to a white male's presence?

I for one am sick and tired of the propaganda that is turning all others against the white male. This country was founded and developed primarily by white males. This is the country where white males saw folly in their ways and fought a war for the freedoms of the others. This is the country while under white male rule, awarded rights to women and minoritys. This is the country while under white rule, allowed millions of poor peoples from foreign lands the opportunity of freedom and prosperity.
How about a little appreciation for the heritage of the white men that helped to free you so that one day you could steal a man's property (in this case a hat) and not be lynched!

What oppression? With the affirmative action polices of today, people of color and women have more access to college tuition grants, job placement, and construction contract awards than white men. I personally think these programs are RACIST against whites. They go against true capitalist competition and equality.

--Make America Great Again!...Remove affirmative action and restore true equality!

*Note: I realize this happened in Canada and not the U.S. I do not think that makes my point any less valid. I also realize no people of color were directly involved in this confrontation. However, in the past, in the deep south, white sympathizers were lynched too.

Oh paleeze - it is the Trump protesters that are assaulting Trump supporters. No incidences of vice versa.
