    Edinburgh law student Robbie Travers who ridiculed Isis is accused of hate crime

    https://www.thetimes.co.uk/artic…

    Edinburgh University is investigating a law student over claims that he mocked Islamic State on social media and put “minority students at risk and in a state of panic and fear”.

    An official at the university who conducted a preliminary investigation allegedly accused the third-year law student of having committed a “hate crime” even though there has been no criminal investigation by the police.

    lolz - students at the University of California, Berkeley recently attempted to shut down their own mid-term exam, demanding a take-home exam in its place.

    apparently taking tests is making it unsafe for their wellbeing, compounding the stress of having to deal with white privilege all day.

    students demanded a “take-home essay with significant time to prepare” instead of the scheduled in-class exam, though Professor Harley Shaiken adamantly refused their request.

    on the way out, the the poor little oppressed ones, accused those students choosing to take the exam of supporting white supremacists.

    College orders 'gender neutral' language on campus

    • There is no "order", nor any rule or mandate. The University asked that students be inclusive and use those pronounslocustsloth
    • UNLESS OR UNTIL, they knew the preference of the person they were talking to. If a person they encountered wanted to be referred to with any of these pronouns,locustsloth
    • why no accommodate? It'd be like asking people to call someone Mike instead of Michael. It's about accepting people, not forcing PC gender issues.locustsloth

    A TWISTED brother and sister are facing jail after they were spotted having sex in a train station lift.
    Richard Finlayson, 21, and sibling Kirsty, 18, romped in the elevator as they were filmed by CCTV cameras.

    The shocking 15-minute clip showed them exiting the lift — only to return a short time later to have sex AGAIN.

    And as they left for a second time Richard gave Kirsty a £20 note.

    The depraved pair were later arrested by police after a railway worker at Motherwell Station raised the alarm.

    Last night a family friend said the revelations had left the pair's family "destroyed".

    It came after Richard, of Carluke, Lanarkshire, and Kirsty of Lesmahagow, admitted having unlawful sexual intercourse in June last year.

    Hamilton Sheriff Court heard how they left an 11-year-old boy who was with them on the platform during their illicit tryst.

    Depute fiscal Amanda Gallagher said: "They both went into the lift and were seen having sexual intercourse on the CCTV.

    "Both accused then exited the lift for a short period before returning and continuing having sexual intercourse.

    Sordid ... lift at railway station
    "Both accused then stood up and left the lift. At which point Mr Finlayson was seen giving his sister some money

    The court was told Kirsty Finlayson had admitted the sordid act to police.

    But she denied she'd had sex for cash — while Richard said he gave her the £20 "as a brother, not for payment".

    Last night the family friend said: "We're devastated. I was sickened when I heard about it.

    "Most of the family knew nothing about it until letters for the case came in.

    "We can't believe it. It is a nightmare."


    Sheriff Ray Small ordered Richard to be placed on the sex offenders' register. The brother and sister will be sentenced next month.

    Law Professors Condemned as Racist After Praising America’s 1950s ‘Bourgeois Culture’

    http://freebeacon.com/culture/la…

    The UPenn coalition printed a letter on Monday in the school paper, the Daily Pennsylvanian, claiming the professors were "complicit in" and guilty of "normalizing" white supremacy through this op-ed.

    Portland burrito shop forced to close amid accusations of cultural appropriation, stealing recipes

    http://www.portlandmercury.com/b…

    "Portland has an appropriation problem.
    This week in white nonsense, two white women—Kali Wilgus and Liz “LC” Connely—decided it would be cute to open a food truck after a fateful excursion to Mexico.

    There’s really nothing special about opening a Mexican restaurant—it’s probably something that happens everyday. But the owners of Kooks Burritos all but admitted in an interview with Willamette Week that they colonized this style of food when they decided to “pick the brains of every tortilla lady there in the worst broken Spanish ever.”
