LEFT WING LOONS Title: Jews who vote Democrat ... Ha Ha you are getting what you voted for --- what you deserve. To: re_tail20 To the 80% of Jews who vote Democrat, Ha Ha you are getting what you voted for and what you deserve. 14 posted by qam1 (There's been a huge party. All plates and the bottles are empty, all that's left is the bill to pay) Jewish DePaul Student: 'I No Longer Felt Safe on This Campus' by Paul Miller 23 May 2014 This week, students at DePaul University are being asked to get involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and vote on a non-binding resolution that asks the university to divest from companies that do business in the Jewish State. But for some Jewish students on the Lincoln Park, Chicago campus, the campaign behind the proposed measure has created an atmosphere of intimidation, not free speech. Rachel (last name withheld), a sophomore at DePaul, explained that the DePaul Divest campaign, begun two months ago, has transformed this campus from one that used to be safe and community-giving. This entire campaign and entire sit-in going on in the SAC (Schmitt Academic Center) is totally unsafe for Jewish students and I have had a lot of Jewish students text me and call me today and tell me they are not comfortable walking through that part of our campus, which is really disheartening. Rachel added, About two months ago when SJP (Students for Justice in Palestine) started the DePaul Divest campaign, I no longer felt safe on this campus and I no longer felt I could be a proud Jewish student. During a Tuesday afternoon public forum on campus about the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign, freshmen student Ally (last name withheld) told a pro-Israel panel that as a Jewish student, she feels intimidated on the Lincoln Park campus. (Note: SJP did not respond to an invitation to participate according to moderator Professor Patrick Callahan.) When asked if she feels as safe as the other students on campus, Ally said, I do kind of feel as a Jewish student that I am being targeted on campus. I feel that a lot of questions are being directed to me and I am constantly on the defensive on campus, she explained. I have to defend myself, my Judaism, my pride in Israel every day and its getting a little bit exhausting. post a comment 391
