From a Harvard Law professor:
quote:

Students seem more anxious about classroom discussion, and about approaching the law of sexual violence in particular, than they have ever been in my eight years as a law professor. Student organizations representing women’s interests now routinely advise students that they should not feel pressured to attend or participate in class sessions that focus on the law of sexual violence, and which might therefore be traumatic. These organizations also ask criminal-law teachers to warn their classes that the rape-law unit might “trigger” traumatic memories. Individual students often ask teachers not to include the law of rape on exams for fear that the material would cause them to perform less well. One teacher I know was recently asked by a student not to use the word “violate” in class—as in “Does this conduct violate the law?”—because the word was triggering. Some students have even suggested that rape law should not be taught because of its potential to cause distress.

Well, if I wanted to convict people of rape without due process of law or application of controlling jurisprudence, the first thing I would do would be to ban the teaching of it in the law schools.

i really do love how many SJWs or social-progressives seriously live to push the issue on fricking with "normal" (aka privileged) people to provide shock therapy via engrossment. HOWEVER, a slight "trigger" is the end of the fricking world for them.

what is good for the goose is certainly not good for the gander

These people should not be lawyers.

When they get into the real practice, they will not be able to handle it.

This can't be real life.

So are we not going to teach anatomy for similar reasons? It may bring back tramautic memories about that one time I wasn't able to get it up

For future reference, I'd appreciate a trigger warning for this word as it brings up memories of derogatory actions against myself and other entertainers. A cis straight white male like yourself hasn't had the experiences that myself and other clownkin have, so please check your privilege. TIA.

did this ever make its way here?

He offered his hand to help me up, and I thought to myself how this might be a manifestation of the patriarchy patronizing me. I doubt he would’ve said those violent words had I been white, but he would take any opportunity to patronize a colored m@n or womyn. People on this campus always box others in based on race. Triggered, I waved his hand aside and got up of my own accord. ...

The biggest obstacle to equality today is our barbaric attitude toward people of left-handydnyss. It’s a tragedy that I, a member of the left-handed community, had little to no idea of the atrocious persecution that we are dealt every day by institutions that are deeply embedded in society. So deeply embedded, and so ever-present, that we don’t even notice them.


quote:

That was the end of the story—until last week, when The College Fix reported that Mahmood's off-campus apartment was vandalized. The four criminals wore hoods and baggy clothing to disguise themselves; less brilliantly, they changed in full view of the apartment complex's security camera. They appear to be women of unclear ages. The video footage is available here.

I spoke with Mahmood, who tells me the police are looking at the matter. And I understand that some people have identified the women in the video footage. I will publish an update when their identities are confirmed.
