Bill Ayers to University Students: America‘s ’Game Is Over‘ and ’Another World’ Is Coming
The Blaze ^ | May 2, 2012 | Erica Ritz

Posted on 05/02/2012 1:38:52 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

Bill Ayers spoke at the University of Oregon last week on the subject of teaching and organizing for “social justice.” His speech was not free of the radical sentiments he is well-known for espousing (especially in the company of America’s youth). Case in point: he spoke of the end of America, a new world, and what our role ought to be in all of it.

Almost as interesting as Ayers’ speech itself, perhaps, was how the leftist radical was introduced by the university students. One girl, who described herself as a doctoral student at the university, spoke of the privilege they would have with their honored guest, in an “evening [of] radical imagination.”

Two others, an associate professor at the university and a graduate student, remarked: “Most of us have in one way or another acknowledged the sovereign authority of the U.S. government– or the state of Oregon– in order to be here tonight, either admission to the university, applying for a job, or just paying the parking meter. We have not, however, asked permission of the [Native Americans] whose ancestral home this is, and to fail to acknowledge that this remains disputed territory would in effect be taking sides, [and] reinforce the erasure of indigenous history and indigenous peoples.”

But the outcome of that meeting will not benefit the country in any way.

It’s amazing how one crazy leftist radical can have so much influence. However, since he’s dealing with crazy leftist radical academics, perhaps it’s not so surprising.

>>I really wonder if these idiots have any idea what their lives would be like in the world they are advocating? Namely short and/or ugly...

Yep. Most of these liberal college students would think their world had ended if they just had to live like we did in the 1970’s! No A/C in schools, doing research in libraries, no internet or cell phone or computers, 3 TV channels and no remote, polyester clothing, no MRI/CAT scans, etc. But, they want us to live like stone age “native americans” and think it would be great.

Seeing as how Bill is pushing 70, his role in it will probably be limited to filling an urn on someone's mantle. So he shouldn't waste too much time thinking deeply about his role.

Why would you care?

I can't say, not having read the rest.

If it's important somebody will lay it out here without my having to provide a click to Beck.

“I agree with you. There is indeed “another world coming”. And Ayers will be sorely disappointed.”

But he won’t be sorely missed.

“Bill Ayers to University Students: America‘s ’Game Is Over‘ and ’Another World’ Is Coming”

America to Ayers: “You’re an idiot, on a good day when the sun is shining. America, as the greatest idea for government that has ever been implemented in human history, will endure. Unless you rethink your stance and lose your hatred, you will die bitter and resentful. Yawn..”

Bill Ayers needs more copper in his system.

At least 150 grains worth.

I got a warning from my computer saying it was blocked because it was a risky connection. I went straight to the site and windows won’t show it.

Folks who live in Hyde Park are out of touch ... When I lived there years ago, I had a friend who said her family was backing Goldwater - because if he was elected the revolution would start.

She was totally serious. I looked at her and said something to the effect that if Goldwater was elected, it would mean he would be President... There wasn't going to be a 'revolution' anywhere except in Hyde Park.

Same neighborhood Ayers is from - total la la land...

By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind he shall become great. Without warning he shall destroy many. And he shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken—but by no human hand.

We can learn a lot by studying what the militias did to the commies and fascists in Gaddafi’s Libya last spring.
