Lux et Veritas

Those particular plans raised the ire of David Codrea, a 2nd Amendment advocate who blogs at War on Guns.

"One could make the argument that the exhibit legally should be classified as hazardous medical waste, and without proper handling, storage and spill clean-up/disposal procedures, with training for affected staff and employees, it poses a danger to the public and to all involved," he wrote. "I wonder if Yale's risk management department was consulted?"
Huh. Virtual ink at WND. I could do worse.

As we saw yesterday, this story has been altered several times, to where the truth of matters has been totally obscured by lies, excuse-making and confusion. The crazy person is playing the media and the Yale administration like a yo yo.

Here's the latest spin:
“Her denial is part of her performance,” Klasky wrote in an e-mail message. “We are disappointed that she would deliberately lie to the press in the name of art.”
Coming from the school with the motto Lux et Veritas. Nice.

Here's what I wrote Ms. Klasky last night:
Disgusting. Regardless of what this young head case claims, how can you not think she "violated basic ethical standards and raised serious mental...health concerns"? And it looks like she's betrayed you, too, because the Yale Daily News is now reporting :
Shvarts '08 disputes Yale's claim
But Shvarts stood by her project, calling the University’s statement “ultimately inaccurate.”

So she lied to the paper to advance her project and/or she lied to "three senior Yale officials today — including two deans" about the nature of her project?

I presume the reporter took notes or recorded the conversation, and the administrators are prepared to testify as to what she told them?

I thought Yale had a policy against academic fraud?

Oh, yeah: here it is.

So when do the expulsion hearings begin?

Or do you consider academic fraud "expressing herself in performance art" and a "right," too?

Lux et Veritas,

David Codrea


You might ask what all this has to do with a gun rights blog. Aside from the fact that this is my journal and it exists to express my opinions and serve my interests, there is, in fact, a tie-in.

We just observed the first anniversary of the Virginia Tech massacre. We know the only thing that can possibly lessen the carnage is for people under attack to be able to defend themselves. And yet we see that idea is still resisted and ridiculed by the prominent voices of influence in academia, government and media.

Whether their self-delusion permits them to admit it or not, their obstinate refusal to consider the armed citizen option makes them anti-life, even though they have succeeded in presenting themselves as exactly the opposite.

Bottom line: administrators and educators promulgate an anti-life attitude under the guise of liberalism, but it is truly a reflection of moral relativism and repression, and their refusal

Bottom line: administrators and educators promulgate an anti-life attitude under the guise of liberalism, but it is truly a reflection of moral relativism and repression, and their refusal to admit there is right and wrong. We see it still in the wretchedly amoral apologetics of Ms. Klasky, who presents herself as a defender of artistic expression, all the while enabling lies, enabling craziness, enabling evil.

Such environments aren't just targets for future attacks, they're incubators for them.

And, of course, when the weaker-minded among their charges finally snap from all the confusion, the neo-Marxist philosopher kings who guarantee moral bedlam will once again sound the mantra calling for less freedom and more helplessness.

Because they don't trust you.
