Fox News decides there’s a ‘feminist war’ on men’s rights after protest in Detroit

Fox News reported on Monday that feminists could be waging a “war on men” after attendees of a men’s rights conference in Detroit were accused of hate speech.

At what was advertised as the first International Men’s Rights Conference in Detroit last week, A Voice For Men founder Paul Elam called for feminism to be defeated.

And National Post columnist Barbara Kay told the men that the “vast majority of female students allegedly raped on campus are actually voicing buyer’s remorse from alcohol-fueled promiscuous behavior involving murky lines of consent on both sides.”

After a group of feminists showed up to protest the event, Fox News host Steve Doocy asked on Monday, “Who are the one’s being intolerant?”

“Does the intolerance show there’s really a feminist war on men?” co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck suggested.

When in doubt ask a white male if he feels persecuted; who would know better than a white male the state of racial and gender relationships in America?

War on Christmas
War on Easter
War on Christianity
War on Terror
And the all time fav, Class War

Okay, so now we have the "Feminist War on Men".
