UNREAL … Bellevue College in Washington State Offers 7 Gender Types for Applicants to Choose From and Not One is Male or Female

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE COUNTRY I GREW UP IN, Confused Gender Edition.

Bellevue College in Washington state now allows applicants  can choose from seven different options to identify their gender, except for male and female. I kid you not.  The college claims that the question will help it create better services and classes for gender-variant students. Of course it makes the rest of the 99.5% male and female applicants confused as hell.  The college claims that the data is 100% private and not shared with anyone, and for now will only be used internally. Hmm, guess these folks are not aware of the NSA, nothing is 100% private.

Hmm, when you go to the college’s website you are presented with a rainbow colored banner for the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-Sexual, Transgender and Queer Student Success Initiative. Just wondering, where is the same one for the straight students?

I Think they need to Update the VIDEO on their site

According to News 96.5,your choices are as follows because we can’t make anyone feel … uncomfortable:

• Feminine
• Masculine
• Androgynous
• Transgender
• Gender neutral
• Other, and
• Prefer not to say

Seriously, what happened to male, female and other? So if you are a masculine, tomboy girl or a slightly feminine male, exactly what are you supposed to pick? Better than that, if you are a male or female, what are you supposed to choose from this list, Other?

Lockdown at Indiana University Over as Two Suspects Arrested Following Stabbing on Campus (Update: IU Students 18 Year Old Zesen Shen & 21 Year Old Kaiyu Lao Arrested)

The lock-down has ended at Indiana University in Bloomington early Sunday morning following a report of a stabbing incident on campus. According to Mark Land, the university’s associate vice president of communications, the lockdown stemmed from an incident at 4 AM, when three men, all students,  were involved in a fight at an on-campus building. A 20 year old Indiana University student was stabbed in the back and taken to IU Health hospital in Bloomington with an injury that isn’t life-threatening.

UPDATE I: One arrested, now two.

IU spokesman Mark Land said Shen, Lao and the victim were involved in a fight in the parking lot of Tulip Tree Apartments, 2451 E. Tenth Street, on the northeast side of campus at about 3:30 a.m.

The victim was not seriously injured, said IU-Bloomington Police Lieutenant Craig Munroe, and the fight was believed to have been an isolated incident.

UPDATE II : 2 Arrested After Stabbing at Indiana University … Zesen Shen was charged with intimidation and battery and Kaiyu Lao was charged with intimidation.

University police arrested 18-year-old Zesen Shen and 21-year-old Kaiyu Lao, IU spokesman Mark Land said in a news release. Shen has been charged with intimidation and battery and Lao was charged with intimidation, Land said.

Police said Shen, Lao and a 20-year-old IU student were in the Tulip Tree apartment’s parking lot around 3:30 a.m., Land said. Witnesses told campus police the three were there “to resolve a dispute when the suspects began chasing victim and wounded him with a knife,” Land said.

University of Colorado Boulder Political Correctness … Tells Students Not to Wear Offensive Costumes including Cowboys, Indians or White Trash for Halloween

Good grief, are you kidding me … exactly how is it offensive to dress up like a cowboy or Indian?

The University of Colorado at Boulder is warning students not to dress up in Halloween costumes that are “offensive” and might make some people feel uncomfortable. UNREAL. The PC nonsense has now provided a war on Halloween. Offensive? What is offensive is the narrow-mindedness of the liberal hierarchy at CU and the lack of any sense of humor. You can’t have party themes or dress up like cowboys, Indians, white trash, ghetto or hillbillies. Nor themes of crime or sex work. Good grief!  What ever happened to people just having fun and be able to laugh? Let’s face it, there is always some one that will be offended by something. Especially in this day and age of “weeniness.” Just curious, how do you know you are not offending witches, goblins, ghosts, vampires and other ghouls by the costumes you wear, HMM?

I am guessing if they dress up like Barack Obama in an unflattering way that it will be grounds for dismissal.

Costumes you will not see at CU this Halloween for a multitude of reasons …

Nor This …

University students in America have been told not to wear “offensive” halloween costumes including cowboys, indians and anything involving a sombrero.

Students at the University of Colorado Boulder have also been told to avoid “white trash” costumes and anything that portrays a particular culture as “over-sexualised”- which the university says includes dressing up as a geisha or a “squaw” (indigenous woman).

They are also asked not to host parties with offensive themes including those with “ghetto” or “hillbilly” themes or those associated with “crime or sex work.”

In the letter sent by a university official students are asked to consider the impact that their costumes could have.

Christina Gonzales, the dean of students, wrote: “Making the choice to dress up as someone from another culture, either with the intention of being humorous or without the intention of being disrespectful, can lead to inaccurate and hurtful portrayals of other people’s cultures.

I wonder if the University of Colorado officials think its ok for students to dress up like Conservatives and have anti-Tea Party themes?

BTW, get a life and a sense of humor.

Islamic Terrorists Kill at least 50 Students in Attack on Nigerian College

Because Islam is a religion of Peace, so they say …

Islamic terrorists attacked the Yobe State College of Agriculture in Gujba, Nigeria and have killed as many as 50 students.  As reported by the BBC, students shot dead as they slept. Nigeria State Police Commissioner Sanusi Rufai said that he suspected that the terrorist group Boko Haram was behind the attack.

Islamic terrorists dressed in Nigerian military uniforms assaulted a college inside the country Sunday, gunning down dozens of students as they slept in their dorms and shot others trying to flee, witnesses say.

“They started gathering students into groups outside, then they opened fire and killed one group and then moved onto the next group and killed them. It was so terrible,” one surviving student, who would only give his first name of Idris, told Reuters.

As many as 50 students may have been killed in the attack, which began at about 1 a.m. in rural Gujba, Provost Molima Idi Mato of Yobe State College of Agriculture, told The Associated Press.

“They attacked our students while they were sleeping in their hostels, they opened fire at them,” he said. The extremists also torched classrooms.

Nigeria: Militants kill students in college attack.

There were no security forces stationed at the college despite government assurances, said Mato. The state commission for education, Mohammmed Lamin, called a news conference two weeks ago urging all schools to reopen and promising protection from soldiers and police.

Most schools in the area closed after militants on July 6 killed 29 pupils and a teacher, burning some alive in their hostels, at Mamudo outside Damaturu.

Northeastern Nigeria is in a military state of emergency against an Islamic uprising prosecuted by Boko Haram militants who have killed more than 1,700 people since 2010 in their quest for an Islamic state. Boko Haram means Western education is forbidden.
