Western MA News: Students at two schools in Amherst are getting involved and some even took an American flag off a pole and burned it. Down the street, at Hampshire College, an American flag that had been lowered for those who felt this anger and fear was burned overnight. College officials allowed the flag to remain at half-staff on Thursday “out of respect for the anguish that they were feeling, even while recognizing that for others in our community the flag connotes very different meanings,” Ward wrote.
Decisions about the flag fall to the Board of Trustees — “a responsibility our trustees take very seriously,” Ward wrote.
“The trustees had already planned to talk about the questions raised by a number of members of the community regarding the flag, and will still do so,” Ward wrote. “We will communicate with the campus soon about next steps.”
The college offered counseling services Wednesday to students who were upset about the election. Services were also offered at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Hampshire College President Jonathan Lash sent a message to the community Wednesday to try to ease those feelings.
In that message, Lash wrote that he had heard from students, faculty and staff who were “struggling to understand the meaning and implications” of the results.
“I feel both anguish and sadness,” Lash wrote. “I am particularly concerned about members of our community who felt themselves specifically targeted during a hateful campaign by repeated racist, Islamophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBT, and misogynistic statements.”
The school said that its plan was to raise it again for Veterans Day by early Friday morning. Hampshire College officials have already replaced the flag.
So let me get this straight. Hampshire College put the flag at half staff because of the results of a fair and democratic election? It wasn’t just some kids doing this. Adults in charge of a college made this call. As if someone important died. There is an actual code for this sort of thing. But the bottom line is you only put that sucker at half staff when someone important dies. That’s it. You certainly don’t put it down because a bunch of pansy ass 19 year olds are sad because their candidate didn’t win.
Granted Hampshire College administrators did not burn the flag itself, but they certainly created the atmosphere that led to this. Of course we know by now that Hampshire College isn’t a real school. Literally anyone can get in there, and you don’t have to be very smart to stay.
This is a student body that demanded that Obama be their graduation speaker, and then revolted when he wasn’t chosen by Jonathan Lash:
Don’t worry, he gave into them and ditched the Asian doctor the school had chosen because she wasn’t diverse enough.
This is the school that brought us Trigglypuff for crying out loud.
It’s the same school that gave us Jennie Chenkin, a woman who went to a public speaking event at UMass with the sole intention of disturbing it (because she didn’t agree with the three speakers), got caught on video doing so, and then demanded that the University apologize to her because she made a mockery of herself. She also wrote the most infamous 2,000 word email to UMass administration, demanding that Turtleboy be held accountable:
This Thing Just Wrote The Most Insane Email Ever Demanding An Apology To Her And Trigglypuff
Then there was this useful idiot:
Joanna Olin is an administrator at Hampshire College and also their bootleg lawyer. She actually wrote us a cease and desist EMAIL because we were writing true stories about the little snowflakes that were whining to her about free speech.
Hey, when’s that lawsuit coming?
Oh yea, and don’t forget their graduation speaker, Xaveir Torres de Janon, who shit all over his school after he forced them to abandon their commencement speaker in favor of a trasngender chick/dude:
SJW Graduation Speaker Shits All Over His School In The Most Emasculating Speech Of All Time
Despite the fact that he attended literally the most liberal school in the entire country, it still wasn’t enough, as he famously condemned “Hampshire College’s capitalist, sexist, rape culture, racist, prison industrial complex, transmisognistic.”
He was also upset because “our institution is stuck under white, cishetero patriarchal liberalism. Fuck Hampshire College.”
These are the kind of people who go to Hampshire College. The worst of the worst. This was what America was reacting to when we elected Donald Trump President. We all just wanted to send this face a big ol’ fuck you:
Of course the real problem are the adults who cater to their bullshit. Real administrators don’t write cease and desist letters to Turtleboy because their students are mad that we exposed them. Real administrators would tell students that their candidate lost and move on with their lives. But people who create monsters like Trigglypuff, Xavier, and Jennie Chenkin put the flag at half staff to appease their butthurt.
The worst part about this is they burned the flag on Veteran’s Day. A day in which we celebrate those amongst us who are willing to do what the rest of us would have to be drafted in order to do. People who voluntarily signed up defend democracy with their lives. This is why Trump won the election. Because America is sick and tired of this bullshit. But please, keep pulling stunts like this. All you’re doing is guaranteeing that President-Elect Trump will be a two term President.

Hey, Hampshire college’s Jennie Chenkin has a lot to answer for here. Lowering the flag because Trump was elected? Shine on, God Emperor! Her SSN is 141-83-1917, her driver’s license is c2151 08637 12912, and her DOB is 9-14-1994.
Yeah but what about the yams on the chick in the middle….
Maybe, just maybe some one should explain they could fly the flag up side down. This is the international sign of distress. Because there seems to be a lot of distress at this school.
“You certainly don’t put it down because a bunch of pansy ass 19 year olds are sad because their candidate didn’t win.”
And said pansies probably didn’t even vote.
Actually, there is a prerequisite to acceptance and graduating from Hampshire College. You have to be a faggot or maggot. Otherwise, your application is automatically rejected.
Thankfully Bobbing on Dick approves. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again FUCK OFF
I’m pretty sure he told Turtleboy to go fuck themselves and called them assholes… Yet, he’s still here. Multiple Personality Disorder in full effect.
I can’t even burn sticks or leaves in an outdoor fire pit, (it’s against town ordinance) but it’s ok for people to just light flags on fire anywhere they feel like it? How is that legal??? I don’t get it!
Around the time my dad was born,teens were lying about their age to get in the military to defend our country. They were proud to do it. What exactly has changed in our society all these years later? What exactly caused teens to be the way they are today?. It sure as hell wasn’t Atari and rap music.
The future of our country? WE ARE FUCKED!
You are correct! Obama encouraged Disney to hire several hundred H1B Visa holders from Pakistan and India to come to Florida. The IT workers were FORCED to to train these shit skins to take their jobs and they were summarily fired, being replaced by Muslims and Hindus at 1/3 the wages. Anyone doing business with Disney or ESPN is a fucking asshole. I cancelled my Charter cable over this.
PRESIDENT Trump should cancel all H1B visas, deport the assholes who have them and their families and give the jobs back to real Americans who need them, regardless of race.
The biggest reason of all to vote Trump was little cuck faggots like this kid, lecturing me on how racist and privileged I am. I’m a white millennial who has had to fucking scrape for everything I’ve ever had, white privilege my ass. Put myself through college, no handouts.
White people are always expected to vote for the greater good, while minorities band together to vote for what’s best for them. Well guess what, we can fucking do that too, and there are more of us. I can’t wait til Trump is president and he lets the police bash the skulls of all these crybaby protesters.
Only the President of the United States or the Governor of your State may order the flag to be half-staffed.
Hampshire College has articulation agreements with TWO other colleges: Holyoke Community College, and Palm Beach Community College. That’s it. Good luck to anyone who tries to transfer their credits. Hampshire College offers the most incredibly USELESS frickin’ degrees.
After someone has shelled out $200K plus in tuition and expenses to this fine educational establishment, give your respect to the graduates by telling them: “I’d like a large black coffee and two plain donuts, please.” No need to be impolite, just because they are failures.
Hahahahaha!! I would be very disappointed if this is what I was paying for… I would like to meet some of the parents of these college students.
I can’t imagine putting myself in that kind of debt only to experience that kind of atmosphere and learning environment. Sad, they should all be ashamed.
Our world is fucked…
Yes it is and you’re no fucking help…
STFU BobnMic. Biggest agitator I see on here.
You don’t even know the half of it so why don’t you shut the fuck up there Toby (dba as Fiesty) and maybe get a clue. I fucking told you I was coming after you harder then before for your shitheadness…
The thing is BobnMic I am not your Fiesty Lady. You are so twisted in the head you think everyone is her. I am beginning to feel bad for you, sort of.
I am reading the book: The African American Odyssey of John Kizell – A South Carolina Slave Returns to Fight the Slave Trade in His African Homeland, written by Kevin G. Lowther.
According to the book’s chronology, in 1810, Kizell undertook a mission to persuade African chiefs to stop trading in slaves. In 1825 he delivered a message to a powerful African chief a death threat if the chief did not cease trading in slaves. In 1830 he detained a fellow African for allegedly kidnapping five African boys.
The author wrote: “I arrived in Sierra Leone as a Peace Corps volunteer to teach history at a Freetown secondary school. I had been a history major in college but knew nothing of Africa, not to mention African American history.”
Well, that tells me a lot about how much Democratic professors teach about the slave trade and who was responsible for it.

That book sounds interesting Paul Larson. The hell with VJ.
The entitled kiddies will never leave America. They couldn’t make it elsewhere, without all the freebies they receive from the government. Sooner or later, most will be getting theirs, one way or another. Just a matter of time, the clock is ticking.
Thank you for exposing some of the totalitarian progressive liberal Nazis on college campuses. As you may guess, much of the funding for the protestors and extreme groups throughout the country was provided by Obama’s government through criminally diverted funds masquerading as non profits. Trump will end that and hopefully begin to prosecute the fraudulent use federal funds inspired and encouraged by Obama’s adminstration. They literally paid for and instructed were and when these protests of outrage would take place.
*can move on – fucking spell check my God…
Now this is an article from the Turtleboy that I came to know and respect. Excellent – now we all came move on.
Am I the only one surprised Hampshire College still has an American flag?
Whatever happened to that little snowflake that gave the speech. Wasn’t he from some third world shithole?
Just looked him up. Surprisingly he decided to stay in this horrible, repressive country. Apparently he’s now a legal assistant at an Atlanta law firm. Here is his LinkedIn summary: Summary
I am committed to compassionate intercultural justice and communication, with priority given to the most oppressed and marginalized. I am guided by prison abolition, decolonial thought and Global South feminisms
I bet he’s an office fave over there. Xavier should thrive in mainstream society……..
Financially Hampshire barely surviving. And few will miss it when it goes. What a weak meaningless student body.
100% Communists.
100% pussy poseurs (staff included).
Wonder how many of these kids get Federal money to help pay for school nd then burn the flag that assisted them.
