Admissions Director of Public University: Conservatives are ���Pieces of Worthless Trash���
The hyperventilating over the election of Donald Trump continues. Honestly, we���re all probably stuck with it, to one degree or another, for the duration of his presidency.
In an exclusive over at MRCTV.com, we learn that one of the senior-most people in charge of determining whether applicants to George Mason University (GMU), a public university in Virginia, gain admission���holds those with conservative values and ideas in very low regard.
Very low regard.
Andrew Bunting, Senior Assistant Director of Admissions at GMU, expressed his strong objection to a President Trump and conservatives by way of his criticism of the National Organization for Marriage���s approval of a Trump presidency. NOM is an advocacy group for traditional marriage, and published a statement the day after the election that read, in part, ���We are confident that our voice and our views will be important in a Trump administration.���
Anyway, on his public Facebook page, Bunting declared that the views of NOM are ���not representative of the key pillars of American society,��� and further said that ���if you agree with them then that is your opinion. Just know that to the rest of us, you are a piece of worthless trash.���
Interestingly, the opinion of this Senior Assistant Director of Admissions at George Mason seems to contradict the views of the school���s president, Angel Cabrera, who made the following statement:
���Let me be clear:
If you are Muslim or Jewish or Christian, you belong at Mason.
If you grew up in Mexico City, Islamabad, or Roanoke, you belong at Mason.
If you are part of the LGBT community, you belong at Mason.
If you are Black or Brown or White, you belong at Mason.
If you voted for Clinton or for Trump or anyone else, you belong at Mason.���
Seems reasonable to me. Hopefully, Bunting will get the memo from his school president.
