DC students eagerly sign fake petition to cancel Memorial Day
 [NYPOST] Some students and others walking around Georgetown in Washington, DC, were happy to sign a fake petition calling for Memorial Day to be canceled because it glorifies "American Imperialism."Students of what? One young man signed the petition, authored by the conservative news site and higher-education watchdog Campus Reform, saying he thinks Memorial Day is "a celebration of US imperialism and colonialism." Thereby demonstrating his own brilliance. "It’s not an attack on any individual but more of a system," he said. That probably made more sense in the original Gobbledegook. (Oh! I'm a racist! I said "gook!" Just discard my opinion.)  Campus Reform interviewed the people who signed the petition in a video published on the outlet’s website in advance of the Memorial Day weekend. The young man said he became anti-American after going to college.Comes as a surprise, don't it? "I didn’t really think in this way until I went to college and I took women’s and gender studies classes and that put me on this path where I’m like, ’yeah, f—k the US.'" And you can go have sex with yourself too, bub. Use a rubber so you don't catch anything. "For me, I was on this spirituality-type journey where we’re all one or whatever, and what I was learning in social justice was the material analysis I needed to practice what I feel like exists on a spiritual plane in real, everyday life." What kind of dressing is good on word salad? He then says "yes, please," when asked if the US should abolish the military. And all veterans' bones should be dug up and thrown into the Tiber.
