Mizzou Misérable: Here’s What These Fascist Student Protesters Are Actually Demanding

The kiddie Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact is in full swing. One the one hand, we’ve got the Pantywaist Fascists too timid to handle “microaggressions” but just aggressive enough to call the cops for hurt feelings, the racists who ban white students from their “safe spaces,” and their weak-kneed allies calling for “muscle” against reporters. On the other, we’ve got the intellectual flotsam of the Occupy Wall Street movement, insisting that the one-percenters at the banks that grant loans now hand that money over for free so that they can use it for their vital degree in gender studies and their concentration in lesbian dance theory.

Trigger Warning: Pablum Puking Pajama Boys Should Shut the Bleep Up

I am so fed up with all this BS. Who do you pajama boys and womyn’s studies majors and queer-theory professors think you’re kidding? It was a bad joke back in 1969 when some fool wrote a book called “The Student As Nigger,” and it’s even more preposterous now when a bunch of Ivy League pukes in New Haven have the gall to describe themselves as “marginalized students.” Shut the bleep up.

If NAEP Test Scores Suggest Poor Common Core Results, Then Change NAEP?

The NAEP results were devastating: national drops of 2-3 points in 8th grade reading and math, and in 4th grade math (and with many individual states dropping by 4, 5 and even 9 points). This was unprecedented since the Main NAEP inception more than 20 years back, and the decline – particularly in math – was essentially everywhere. While statistically significant decline occurred in about half the states, all but seven states dropped in 8th grade math, and all but 13 states in the 4th grade assessment.
