Students Claim Pro-Trump White Board Message Is ‘Violence’

Chaos erupted at an all-female university in California over the weekend after a Mexican-American student woke on Saturday to a pro-Trump message written on her white board.

The message, which simply read “#Trump2016,” has been called an act of “intentional violence” in a university-wide email sent by Minjoo Kim, the student body president at Scripps College in Claremont, California.

“This morning, a Mexican-American Scripps student woke up to find her whiteboard vandalized with the phrase ‘#Trump2016.’ This racist act is completely unacceptable,” Kim wrote. “Regardless of your political party, this intentional violence committed directly to a student of color proves to be another testament that racism continues to be an undeniable problem and alarming threat on our campuses.”

Kim claimed that the pro-Trump message violates Scripps’ goal of creating an “inclusive, safe, and welcoming community.” She recommended her peers seek out university counseling services if the 10 character message threatens their “mental and emotional health.”

  6. Kids these days need some starch in their spines. I'm offended by overt displays of affection in public. Does that stop them?
