    Another Temper Tantrum on a College Campus - Bernie Goldberg

    The cupcakes have struck again.

    This time it was at Middlebury College, a small liberal arts school in rural Vermont, where hundreds of cupcakes (also known as snowflakes) disrupted a speech by the conservative scholar Charles Murray.

    The cupcakes say he’s a bigot so they wouldn’t let him talk. They chanted, “Racist, sexist, anti-gay, Charles Murray, go away.” I think they threw in the “anti-gay” part because they needed something to rhyme with “go away.”

    According to news reports some students stomped their feet and set off fire alarms.

    Can you blame them? If they didn’t scream and yell and chant and set off fire alarms they may have had to listen to something they didn’t want to hear. Oh, the horror! They might have actually learned something. And if something that horrible happened they might have needed therapeutic puppies to calm them down.

    The reason they don’t like Charles Murray goes way back to a book he co-wrote in 1994 called The Bell Curve, a book I’m willing to bet no one stomping his feet actually read...

    ...Burger said college public safety officers put Stanger and Murray into the administrator’s car.

    “The protestors then violently set upon the car, rocking it, pounding on it, jumping on and try to prevent it from leaving campus,” he said.

    “During this confrontation … one of the demonstrators pulled Prof. Stanger’s hair and twisted her neck,” Burger said. “She was attended to at Porter Hospital later and is wearing a neck brace...”


    ...A lot of ordinary Americans – especially blue collar Americans, I suspect — have lost patience with these privileged cupcakes on college campuses who have no respect for people and opinions they don’t like. You think that in some small way contributed to Donald Trump’s victory in November? I do.

    The president of Middlebury says she will be“ responding” to what happened on campus. Here’s a suggestion on how to respond: Expel the students involved. Kick them out of school. That might send a message to cupcakes on campuses all over the country: The lunatics will not be allowed to run the asylum – no matter how many times Mommy and Daddy told them how wonderful they are.
