    Students sign fake petition to cancel Memorial Day, call it a celebration of 'US imperialism'

    The petition calls for support to ban Memorial Day for glorifying 'American Imperialism'

    Students and other people walking around the Georgetown area of Washington, D.C., signed a fake petition ahead of Memorial Day to ban the holiday honoring fallen military service members.

    The petition, authored by Campus Reform, a conservative news site and higher-education watchdog, calls for support to ban Memorial Day in the U.S. for glorifying "American Imperialism." Campus Reform reporter Addison Smith interviewed those who signed the petition in a video published on the outlet's website.

    Fox Nation contributor and retired Marine bomb technician Joey Jones told "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Saturday that one of the young men in the video appeared to be about the same age as he was when he fought in his first war.

    "Have you ever seen the movie ‘Frozen’? I've got a 2-year-old daughter. I watch it a lot more than I want to," Jones said, making an analogy. "There's a snowman in the movie ‘Frozen,' and he's so stupid and ignorant to the world around him, he can't wait until summer. He sings a whole song about summer, and he's a snowman."

    Jones said the U.S. Marine Corps represents the protections the military provides the county that, adding that the only thing keeping the snowman from melting is a "Disney princess… and a cloud of snowflakes."

    In the Campus Reform video, one young man told Smith that he thinks Memorial Day is "a celebration of U.S. imperialism and colonialism."

    "It's not an attack on any individual but more of a system," he explained.

    Later, when asked to expand on his thoughts about imperialism, the young man says: "I didn't really think in this way until I went to college and I took women's and gender studies classes and that put me on this path where I'm like, yeah, f--k the U.S."

      A good study that proves the power of tribes and mob mentality.

      I doubt if these kids thought about it they would sign, although maybe they offered up personal agency at the alter of their tribe. Talk about a deal with the devil.
