University of Michigan cancels ‘American Sniper’ screening: ‘Made students feel unsafe’

I kinda wonder what it must be like to be an SJW. Is there anything they're not afraid of ? Just how coddled were these people ?

When I try to conjure up an image of one as a child, I see some kid with an inhaler (despite not having asthma) elbow and knee pads to compliment the helmet, and a hot lunch delivered to school daily by a doting mother who's afraid that what's on offer in the cafeteria isn't good enough for her little schnoopy-kins.

As much as I'm not a fan of this army recruitment video, there is absolutely no reason "uncomfortable" students should have it pulled. If it makes you uncomfortable, don't watch it. Simple as that.

I'm a very accepting and tolerant person, but these Muslims around the world trying to restrict and prevent all freedom in the name of their religion has to be stopped because we won't progress as a civilization with shit like that going on in the world.

I can't even say cowards, it's so infantile I'm struggling to care.

How is this a men's rights issue?

shows a mass killer

That is a somewhat disgusting way to present an argument. It shows a man who served his country doing the job they assigned him because it was the best use of his talents.

However, using that phrasing invokes "mass murderer" or "serial killer" , which carries an inappropriate ethical judgment - he was killing enemy combatants in a war zone where they would have killed him or killed other americans or coalition forces had he not taken the actions he did.

Does that make him a good person? a nice person? Or was he a violent asshole because his job was violence and he was good at it? I have no idea. Never met him. Can't judge those things from what he did though. All you can judge is that he was very meticulous and very good at his job.

Sorry, but this is not a men's rights issue.

Can we get the Koran banned from campus then? It says far worse things about far more people than this movie does. And to see the effect, just turn on the news. Nobody ever killed anyone because American Sniper.
