Student Government At Public University Kicks Out Member Over Pro-Trump Chalking
2016-04-08
[DAILYCALLER] Student government leaders at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga have demanded one of its members to resign over chalking a message on campus supporting Donald Trump.

In a message posted to Twitter early Wednesday morning, the incoming government slate called "Empower UTC" said they asked one of the participants in their coalition, Hailey Puckett, to leave student government over her pro-Trump artwork.

According to the message, Puckett’s values "do not line up with the pillars we’ve established ourselves on."

"We do not support bigotry or hatred or the messages spread by Donald Trump’s ignorance," the message from the student leaders said. "We do not support the mission of those who wish to spread that ignorance."

#7  I remember the student government at schools I attended. They used to collect student government "fees" at the beginning of each semester. They had no power, of course, but they sure did run their mouths.

#5  The chalkaning is straight out of Alinksy's playbook and the left who live by that book just can't see it.

#4  Wow - you can't make this stuff up if you tried.

The 'Student Leaders' oppose Trump's alledged message of 'bigotry. hatred, and ignorance' by demonstrating their own. Well I guess if you can't debate the issues.

This is the equivalence of placing their fingers in their ears and singing NA_NA_NA_NA_NA!

Next up! You shouldn't be allowed to vote unless you vote Democrat!

The pillars of intolerance, tyranny and violence.

Chalk lives matter!

Little doubt there. Perhaps 'Empower UTC' should follow Hollywood's lead and simply leave the country.
