Oy. I was at MSU during the Gulf War. What a revolting atmosphere it was. ROTC students had to walk to class in groups of no less than four because they were being physically attacked. I remember a rally being held outside my dorm window, and all the shouts coming from the windows of 'get the _uck out of my country'. It was truly ugly. A college campus is not the place to be during a war when you are a Republican.

At the last rally, I had a sign that said "Pick a better country....move there". If the pieceniks were told that..great . If the ROTC were told that...

I was in Brighton/Howell for the Gulf War. I'd just love to see a "peace" rally there. It's be like a rally for the Orange Order in South Boston.

The dems are actually real weak this year. I think there are more MSU GOP members than MSU Dem's. If nothing else, we are more active than they are. We were 40/60 against the Pieceniks at the last rally. Some liberals are actually complaining this MSU is 'too conservative' this year(since Horowitz was allowed to speak and there is some Affirmative Action complaints).

While East Lansing will never be a Livingston County, I've been pleasantly suprised at the low number of 'piecenik' stuff going on here. And we're even brining back the MSU Marksmanship team as well. Things are looking up here.

BTW - The City Inspector never showed. I think my Rocky sign or cigar smokes scared them off.
