They will find the guy who videotaped the thugs and throw him in jail. Plus, they will take away his basketball tickets.

I dont know if theres a more dangerous enemy to America then that of the privileged white youth...

Privileged white youths are bad but privileged black, Asian or Hispanic are okay?

It seems to be okay to make negative comments about white folks.

[swaimh]

The leftist version of Free Speech: speak your mind, but only if you agree with us.

[randomhero97]

That’s not what the poster alluded to. Priviledge white youth are brainwashed into causes they know nothing about.

[SuperLuminal]

Don’t hold your breath!

[ladyjane]

Again. Only privileged white youths can be brainwashed?

Students who were deprived of their First Amendment rights to hear a speaker should file deprivation of civil liberties suits against the “protesters” and UNC for not clearing the room to allowing Tancredo to speak.

I get the feeling that some of the investigation may be coming from the far left - many people want criminal charges filed against campus police who allegedly used tasers and pepper spray.

If a window was indeed intentionally broken, pepper spray and tasers were certainly justified. Broken glass is a danger to bystanders.

It will be curious if this is just an indictment of the outrageous behavior of some of these leftist students and their faculty. Or, if campus police are also disciplined in any way.

Lol, LJ I think you are trying to make a mountain out of a mole-hill. No one is disputing other races have the same issues.

[Just A Nobody]

Students who were deprived of their First Amendment rights to hear a speaker should file deprivation of civil liberties suits against the “protesters” and UNC for not clearing the room to allowing Tancredo to speak.

Just exactly right!!! It is about time we started fighting back and actually getting results. We need to stand up and shout:

We're mad as hell and we aren't going to take it anymore!

[TaxRelief]

I blame Janet Napolitano and that reporter woman on CNN that have both labeled conservatives as “dangerous”. They are doing the equivalent of yelling “fire” in a movie theatre and inciting the pea-brained liberal students to violence.

[TaxRelief]

You are absolutely correct: Privileged, liberal pea-brains come in all colours.

[callisto]

Another important factor is that UNC is part of the state university system and is funded by taxpayer dollars! I will be writing to inform them that if the students and professors are not held accountable for their actions I will loudly fight against ANY state tax dollars go to supporting an institution which defiles freedom of speech.

[callisto]

go to supporting going to support
