Ohio student suspended for staying in classroom during gun control walkout

A student at an Ohio high school said he was suspended for deciding not to participate in Wednesday's walkout protesting gun violence and for not joining other students not walking out in a study hall, according to reports.

Jacob Shoemaker, a senior at Hilliard Davidson High School in Hilliard, Ohio, told the Columbus Dispatch he felt that by walking out of school Wednesday, he would be making a political statement about firearms, something he did not want to do.

Students who did not want to participate in the walkout were instructed to gather for a study hall, but Shoemaker reportedly felt that by joining fellow students who didn’t protest, he would also be taking a side.

“’The biggest problem, Dad, is that there shouldn’t be politics in the classroom … I may just sit in my seat. As far as I’m concerned, that’s the least intrusive of the choices I’ve been given,” Shoemaker said, according to his father, Scott Shoemaker.

When the walkout began Wednesday morning, Shoemaker decided to remain in his seat in class, but was given an out-of-school suspension.

“Student refused to follow instructions after being warned repeatedly by several administrators. Student not permitted on school property 24 hours," the slip from Hilliard City Schools said.

“He stayed in the classroom, where he was supposed to be in the first place,” Scott Shoemaker said. “It’s kind of ironic.”

The Hilliard school district told the Columbus Dispatch that no students were suspended for refusing to participate in the walkout.

“I can say that our students were given two options: one, attend the gathering or two, have a study hall,” Stacie Raterman, the district spokeswoman, said. “We are responsible for...

SOMALI ‘REFUGEE’ ATTACKED WOMAN IN RESTROOM, TRIED TO RAPE HER

MINNEAPOLIS, MN (KMSP) – A 32-year-old Bloomington man is facing multiple charges after he reportedly hid in a women’s bathroom at Minneapolis Community and Technical College, then crawled into a stall in an attempt to sexually assault a woman.

Asad Abu Mohamed of Bloomington is charged with third degree criminal sexual conduct, making terroristic threats and fourth degree assault of a school official.

An MCTC official told Fox 9, the incident happened just after 1 p.m. Friday on the second floor of the campus’ Technology building.

According to the criminal complaint, when Minneapolis police responded to MCTC, they found people comforting a woman, while MCTC security officers were detaining a handcuffed Mohamed.

After speaking with the woman, police learned she had gone into the women’s restroom, which had two stalls. She attempted to go into the larger handicap-accessible stall, but found it was locked, so she went into the smaller stall. While in the stall with her pants down, Mohamed crawled into her stall from the handicap-accessible stall.

The woman immediately began kicking and screaming at Mohamed. She told police, he covered her mouth and told her he would kill her. The woman continued...

Muslim students want Florida student expelled for refusing to try on a hijab on Hijab Day

Imposing Islamic absolutism on the public square continues apace.

Kathy Zhu is a 19-year-old student at the University of Central Florida. She was offered to try on a hijab on Hijab Day. She refused and posted a message on Twitter to criticize the initiative. After that, the Muslim organizers asked the University to expel her.

All of this is revolting (and predictable).

What may not be necessarily predictable is that the young woman is not backing off and arguing against these thugs on Twitter. The University has since issued a message to indicate that the student would not be expelled.

Here is a video released by Kathy Zhu explaining her position and talking about the “snowflake mentality”: (thanks to Gisele)

It bears mentioning that there are no “Star of David Day” or “Wear the Cross Day” either.





The Muslim Student Association terrorizes numerous college campuses nationwide. They are a Muslim Brotherhood front group.

86% of university presidents cite negative effects of ‘liberal political bias on campus’: Poll

Public confidence in American universities has eroded in recent years, and campus administrators have taken notice, blaming not only the high cost of a 4-year degree but the impact of liberal bias in the academy, a new survey of college presidents finds.

“Asked to assess which of several factors were most responsible for declining public support, 98 percent of college and university presidents cited ‘concerns about college affordability and student debt’, 95 percent said ‘concerns over whether higher education prepares students for careers,’ and 86 percent cited the perception of liberal political bias,” reports an extensive new poll from Inside Higher Ed, an independent media company and industry source which tracks higher education.

“About a third of campus leaders agree with the statement that ‘the perception of colleges as places that are intolerant of conservative views is accurate.’ And 51 percent agree the 2016 election ‘exposed that academe is disconnected from much of American society’,” the poll analysis said.

“Perception” is an important term here, the presidents also fretted that the public does not have an realistic impression of the nation’s schools.

“Only 13 percent of college and university presidents agree that ‘most Americans have an accurate view of the purpose of higher education,’ and just 16 percent say the public has an accurate view of the purpose of their sector of higher education. The leaders of research institutions feel especially misunderstood: just 5 percent of presidents of public doctoral universities and 11 percent at private doctoral and master’s-level institutions say the public understands their sector, compared to 22 percent of community college leaders, for example,” the poll said.

It also revealed that a majority of the presidents say they are more politically active; 55 percent say they spoke out more on political issues in 2017.

“To the extent that concerns about liberal bias are harming the public’s view of colleges, the damage is likely greatest among Republican voters, as recent polls have shown that group is most likely to have lost more faith in higher education. That divide clearly troubles presidents. More than three-quarters say they worry about Republicans’ increasing skepticism, even as 71 percent disagreed that ‘Republican doubts about...
