LEADERSHIP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FOMENTING IT
Kick the protesters off the team and rescind any football scholarships they may have had. Fire the coaches that are supporting them for breach of contract.
Rinse, repeat as necessary. Any of them that had aspirations for the pros should be disqualified as bad risks.
Stop it now!
Too late.
Mizzou, like most other big state universities, has been in the hands of radicals for many decades.
You say we are going to end up in a Civil War????? Hell, we ARE in the early stages and so far Western Man is LOSING!
These are liberals protesting liberals. No different than rioters burning down their neighborhoods. Sit back, watch and eat popcorn. These idiot administrators created these soft subject majors and hired these Marxists teachers. Now they are reaping what they have sowed.
The good, upstanding citizens of this nation will respond to strong leadership.....
....this UM president should not have resigned...
...but in today’s climate, the media, and these thug students would have combined To tear him to bits...
He clearly saw the handwriting on the wall...
But I wish he would have held out...
...we have a void of leadership....
...hence the genuine appeal of tough, brash, authoritive Donald Trump!
This is the quality of “leadership” found in the post Christian, neo pagan era of American hedonism and decadence. The football coach and the athletic director are also beyond contempt.
Talk about a worthless college degree.
You worry about Texas universities and we’ll worry about Missouri ones.
this will likely get Louis Farrakhan to be new chancellor and Jeremiah Wright the new President, then rename the University Grambling North.
Only way to satisfy race mongers is to let ‘em run the place.
Seen this tactic before. All Obama is trying to do is distract tax paying citizens to keep them from truly seeing what he is doing to this country. Every year he does this same old stuff.
Remember the Occupy movement?
Missouri is erupting in this sort of nonsense and I live one block from the state. Ugh.
As for the MU thing, they sure wasted a lot of capital on that big bunch of nothing. I guess they are happy. I think they will find that they spent more capital than they think they did. Their account is way low and so these nonsense shenanigans will have increasingly less and less effect. As it is most people did not agree with them. They just gave in because it was not worth the fight.
I heard one person say he was proud of them. He was so ridiculous I turned him off. Not only was he ridiculous, he was phony. He was one of those who was just trying to ride the wave of emotion to personal advantage and approval, imo.
Add “Mau-Mauing” to your vocabulary, it’s a great way to understand some current events, especially as they relate to Mizzou, Yale, Ferguson etc.
We are watching classic “Mau-Mauing” directed at bureaucratic and academic “flak catchers,” like the university president forced to resign yesterday by pure mob tactics. It works, so expect it to spread, as it has to Yale today. Those of us old enough to remember the 1960s have seen this all before, with Black Panther marches, campus administration office sit-ins, and so on.

Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers
Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers is a 1970 book by Tom Wolfe. The book, Wolfe’s fourth, is composed of two articles by Wolfe, “These Radical Chic Evenings,” first published in June 1970 in New York magazine, about a gathering Leonard Bernstein held for the Black Panther Party and “Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers,” about the response of many minorities to San Francisco’s poverty programs. Both essays looked at the conflict between black rage and white guilt.
“Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers”
The second part of Wolfe’s book is set at the Office of Economic Opportunity in San Francisco which was in charge of administering many of the anti-poverty programs of the time. Wolfe presents the office as corrupt, continually gamed by hustlers diverting cash into their own pockets. The essay centers on the irony of these failed programs fortifying not the diets but the resentment and contempt of the Black, Chicano, Filipino, Chinese, Indian, and Samoan communities of San Francisco.[2]
Wolfe describes hapless bureaucrats (the Flak Catchers) whose function was reduced to taking abuse, or “mau-mauing” (in reference to the intimidation tactics employed in Kenya’s anti-colonial Mau Mau Uprising) from intimidating young Blacks and Samoans, who are seen as reveling in the new-found vulnerability of “the Man”. The flak-catchers smile pathetically, allowing their tormentors to indulge themselves in abuse; the process is seen as a farcical but useful expedient, condescending toward the resentment of these communities. He described one mau-mauer who would show up at the offices and hand over ice-picks, switch-blades and straight-razors that he said were taken from gangs, in exchange for payments from the program. As a result, much of the money of these programs was not reaching its intended recipients, rendering the programs largely ineffective.
Are the trustees/regents appointed by the governor or elected?
Is there a URL for the article?
Agree. When the lowest of the low of the student body rules, the so-called “university” has proven that is is no longer worthy of respect.
Close it, burn it, and salt the ground.
Really.
Have they played BYU yet?
About half the colleges in this country ought to be closed.
