A community college student in Massachusetts faces possible disciplinary action for shouting "Remember Chappaquiddick!" during an on-campus speech by Democrat Sen. Edward Kennedy.

Paul Trost, 20, a student at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass., says he was upset by an introduction of Kennedy given by Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., in which the congressman noted how the long- time senator overcame hardship in life on his way to success.

"Lynch said Kennedy had overcome such adversity to get to the place he was, and that's a bunch of bull," Trost said of the introduction, which occurred in the school's student center Tuesday morning....

That's one of the funniest things I've ever seen posted here! He can show up in a neckbrace - then maybe go on tv and give a statement...hilarious!

Do you think as he ages and enters his twilight years, the lonely, darkness of night terrifies him?
Hope so.

Let's hope so. I'm completely over this Port sham.

What would happen if he would have thrown pies like some of them have done to conservative speakers?

Am I the only one that thinks being rude in a public forum is uncool? I object when it happens to Ann Coulter and I object when it happens to fat boy.

I agree 100% with the question, but we need to be couth!

"I don't regret what I did," Trost said. "And if they ask me to apologize, I won't do it."

Good.

-"One of my teachers called me ignorant and told me this was an embarrassment to the school," Trost told WND. "She said to me, 'Can't you forgive him after all these years?'

What a joke. No one is less forgiving than Teddy. Remember how he lambasted Alito over that nonsense concerning the Princeton alumni club?

Free speech and the right of protest only applies to liberals. This is BASIC.

Similar to what the Irish Catholics suffered for centuries

The real patriots on campus are conservative.

Kennedy needs to be shouted down where ever he speaks. To think that this animal is a person of greatness is ludicrous. Next we will have the rapist speaking as though things were normal in his life!!!! And some goofballs will enjoy it?

Good for you! I worked with youth in my younger years, too. I loved being a school mentor and a Big Sister. :) I find it so interesting to meet other conservatives here that are just the opposite of how liberals stereotype us!

I mean, there are so many truly "compassionate conservatives" out there that just want to give people a hand up versus a hand out. Teach people the skills that they need to have a better life and get it together! I meet many conservatives that are concerned about and in turn DO something to improve their local environment (planting trees, recycling, being a Green Freeper, etc.) and those that appreciate nature through hunting and fishing and hiking and camping out, etc.

We really need to work on our PR, don't you think? We get a bum rap way too often.

Sure. I can forgive him. As soon as the statute of limitations on murder expires...

[...if opportunity presented its self, would I make a statement that would be a discussion topic on FReeRepublic?...]

Me? Probably not, unless it was a tinfoil remark. I have pondered what people might say at my funeral. Keeps me accountable.

Mass liberals calling for a return to the death penalty.
