The Care and Feeding of Weaponized Outrage
 [Town Hall] Watching the zoo unleashed on the University of Missouri campus, reminds one of the opening line of that oft-played song--"Feelings, nothing more than feelings..." We're watching the sickness of the sensitivity movement come to bloom on America's campuses in the form of unbridled intolerance. If your sensitivities are ruffled, if there's a hint of attack, or if I just don't like what you have to say, shut up or I'll have you removed, fired, or shamed into silence!On far too many campuses, those "offended" now have a license to attack without consequence. Even worse--they're getting their way! This is the PC culture unchained, and the schools and administrators who have cultivated it are reaping the rewards--chaotic demonstrations, personal attacks, and unending demands! This growing grievance industry is being rewarded and the media is weaponizing their message. There are campaigns to stop bullying. We need a campaign to stop these narcissistic, spoiled bullies from controlling our college campuses. It's time for administrators and coaches to exercise leadership instead of giving in to the demonstrators' irresponsible demands. Mizzou Protestor: "I'm tired of the lst Amendment."
