Student Govt. President Faces Calls for Removal After Urging Respect for Others’ Opinions
“he created and continues to create a hostile environment for a large portion of the student body”
The left doesn’t want to have a discussion. They believe they are right and that’s the end of it.

Student gov president faces calls for removal after asking people to respect others’ opinions
A Texas student government president faced backlash after asking people to respect the free expression of opinions.
Mohamed AbdelGilil, SGA President at the University of Houston, Clear-Lake, was asked to apologize after posting on his personal Facebook account, “If someone is expressing their opinion about a controversial topic…respect their opinion, please….Respect my thoughts and opinions and others’ too….I will never give up my morals, religion, etc. because it offends people. Like adult people!”
After AbdelGilil made those remarks online, an online petition calling for his removal surfaced.
“Mohamed AbdelGilil is unfit for the position of President of the Student Government Association, as he created and continues to create a hostile environment for a large portion of the student body at the University of Houston-Clear Lake,” it reads.
The petition also says that AbdelGilil “spread homophobic sentiments,” seemingly for asking others to respect others’ opinions on LGBT topics or framing those topics as “controversial.”
While AbdelGilil’s critics referenced at least three of his social media posts, Campus Reform could only view one of them. AbdelGilil declined to comment for this story and the creator of the online petition did not respond in time for publication when asked about the content of the student government president’s other posts.

What happened to that whole free exchange of ideas thing? 😛
Fight fire with fire. He should accuse all of his critics as being Islamophobic.
While I respect the kid more for keeping to principles, perhaps we do need to learn when to take off the gloves and force good ole Saul down their throats, since they love him so.
I don’t get it, Saul?
Respect is a foreign concept to the communist democrats. They do not even manage to respect themselves! Of course, I find it hard to respect their beliefs on baby murder and sexual perversion!
Alas, this poor fellow makes a plea and an indirect assumption when he invokes, ” Like adult people!”
Unfortunately, that’s not what he’s dealing with here. With mental and emotional quotients half their shoe sizes, these infantile, fragile snowflake wannabes (not quite mature and/or brave enough to be actual cultural snowflakes) are incapable of even hearing rumors of some idea that challenges their tenuous cranial capabilities and emotional security blankets in which they are wrapped. (A bit too tightly, too, we might observe.)
I agree, let him pull out the “racist” and “culturally insensitive” card on these fools and shout it “loud and proud” in their faces.
