> There are those within the LGBTQ+ community that are seeking retribution. They are seeking to establish their own courts in the public discourse to revile those who took their forefathers to legal ones. When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression. There are those within almost every community who seek extreme aims. It's foolish to judge any community by the behavior of its most extreme members. I certainly don't judge conservatives by the actions of the small minority of the many far-right ideologues whose voices are being amplified by people in power these days. How about judging the LGBTQ+ community by its mainstream goals? Like, for instance, equality? > To deny the children entry on these grounds is to say they have no value. How is that the case? Plenty of college applicants are denied entry every year, for a variety of reasons. You've so far failed to prove that denying someone admission on the grounds of their racist conduct is tantamount to saying they have no value, whereas denying them admission on other grounds makes no such equivalency. Maybe tone down the hyperbole a bit. > They will take this with them into life. They will raise their children in the soil of animosity. It sounds like you're saying that their plan is to raise their kids to be racists out of spite, because they themselves faced the inconvenience of actual consequences for their own racist behavior at some point in the past. If that's the case, that only bolsters my point that any self-respecting academic institution would be wise to deny admission to a person as petty as that. > To destroy a young man or woman’s future because of foolish indiscretions in their teens is unconscionable. Barring someone from admission to a specific university is hardly the same as "destroying their future". Plenty of people have gone on to successful careers and happy lives despite being denied admission to their university of choice. Having said that, were you equally vocal about the shooting death of Michael Brown? That's an example of an 18-year-old's future being literally taken away, as opposed to figuratively via a denial of admission to a specific university. If you're not at least as outraged by one outcome as you are by the other, I really don't know what else to tell you.
