2013: YAF’S TOP TEN POLITICALLY CORRECT OFFENSES ON CAMPUS
2013 was a year for many offenses against the beloved American traditions of truth, free enterprise, and freedom. Some of the worst offenses are found on school campuses. To close-out the year, we at Young America’s Foundation (YAF) present the Top Ten Politically Correct Offenses on campus:
1. 2,977 American Flags Ripped Out of the Ground at Middlebury College
Each year, more than 200 schools participate in YAF’s 9/11: Never Forget project. Unfortunately, at Middlebury College in Vermont, five student protestors ripped from the ground all 2,997 flags commemorating each of the lives lost on 9/11.
2. Vandals Destroy Pro-Life Display at DePaul University
On the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, 13 students at DePaul University destroyed a pro-life display created by DePaul’s Young Americans for Freedom Chapter. All 500 pink and blue flags meant to symbolize some of the lives lost due to abortion, were thrown into various campus garbage cans.
3. School Bans Prayer at Graduation Ceremonies—Valedictorian Recites the Lord’s Prayer Anyway
In June, graduating high school senior, Roy Costner IV decided to ditch his graduation speech and instead recite the Lord’s Prayer. He did this to take a stand against his school district’s decision to ban prayer at graduation ceremonies.
4. Clemson YAF Chapter Condemned for Supporting Second Amendment Rights
Clemson’s Young Americans For Freedom Chapter decided to host a Second Amendment Banquet where they gave away a Mossberg 715T semiautomatic rifle. The group followed state laws and even required a background check of the winner before the gun could be handed over. A select minority of people on campus and in the local community condemned the group.
5. High School Administrators Disagree with Santorum’s Views, Cancel Speech
Back in April, a speech by former Presidential candidate Rick Santorum was cancelled by a school district in Michigan citing the Senator’s “divisive” stances on traditional marriage. Even though the topic of the Senator’s discussion would be on leadership, the event at Grosse Point High School was still canceled.
