My favorite paragraph from the article: "Parents, pay attention. When you give your kids everything while requiring nothing in return you create the vapid, self-centered, tone-deaf type of pseudo-adults that are so vividly embodied in the Pitzer girls’ temper tantrum on a 'free speech' wall."

In college I wore them, too. Somehow, I can't work up a sufficient amount of shame for this. Maybe because I read of the Israeli's being asked to break theirs off in the book of Exodus. Before that the Ishmaelites were recorded as wearing them.

Oh, noes! I guess those hissy-fitters were the cultural appropriators. I wonder if they can work up any shame? Doubtful.
