Open letter from Rockland PBA President James J. Kelly to Columbia President Lee C. Bollinger

Dear President Lee C. Bollinger,

Last week we learned that Kathy Boudin was recently employed by Columbia University as an adjunct professor at the School of Social Work. On behalf of the hundreds of police officers serving in Rockland County and the thousands of police officers residing in Rockland County, I feel compelled to comment on this very poor decision to hire Kathy Boudin.

During the 1960s and 1970s, Kathy Boudin was a radical member of the terrorist organization called Weather Underground. This terrorist group was, among other atrocities, responsible for the bombings of the Pentagon, US Capitol, the New York Police Benevolent Association and the New York Board of Corrections.

In 1981, Kathy Boudin along with several members of the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Party robbed a Brinks armored car at the Nanuet Mall and killed Sgt. Edward O’Grady, Police Officer Waverly Brown, and Brink’s guard Peter Paige. Boudin was the operator of the U-Haul getaway vehicle and her actions immediately following the car stop directly led to the murders of O’Grady and Brown and changed the lives of these two families forever.

Boudin exited the vehicle with her hands raised under the ruse that she was surrendering. She was able to distract the officers attention long enough to let her six cohorts, exit the rear of the truck armed with automatic weapons, and murder Sgt. O’Grady and Officer Brown. Kathy Boudin was sentenced to a term of 20 years to life under a plea agreement which included one count of murder.

Mr. Bollinger, my question to you is why? Why would you employ a radical terrorist who was directly responsible for the deaths of two police officers?

[Impala64ssa]

Why? Probably the same reason they have orgasms just thinking of mumia abu jamal. The crap that goes on in glorified diploma mills like Columbia make me seriously think that a college education is a scam. Especially when so many of the educated morons that come out of these places end up carrying huge tuition debts that they spend the best years of their lives paying off, if at all.

A murdering commie biatch teaching at one of our larger universities and then people ask why so many employers aren’t very excited about hiring kids with college “diplomas” (tuition receipts) these days.

[doc1019]

Ain’t gona’ happen. A liberal school willing to admit they made a mistake! Ain’t gona’ happen.

[tumblindice]

“School of social work” heh

[randog]

Why would you employ a radical terrorist who was directly responsible for the deaths of two police officers?

Because the Columbia University Office of Diversity noted that the school faculty was under-represented in the "radical terrorist who was directly responsible for the deaths of two police officers" category.

[Yardstick]

It’s a good letter and good that he had it published in the local paper. Would be nice to see it rally some pushback against the university’s bad decision.

Kathy Boudin was born on May 19, 1943, into a family with a Muslim mother and a 1/2 Jewish Father, with a long left-wing history, and she was raised in Greenwich Village, New York.

Her great-uncle was Louis B. Boudin, a Marxist theorist. Her father, attorney Leonard Boudin, had represented such controversial clients as Judith Coplon, Fidel Castro, and Paul Robeson.

Kathy Boudin attended kindergarten at the Little Red School House and its high school, the Elisabeth Irwin High School in Manhattan. Although she went to Bryn Mawr College intending to prepare for medical school, her interests quickly turned to politics.

1965, her last year at Bryn Mawr was spent studying in the Soviet Union. She was paid 75 rubles a month by the Soviet government and, according to her résumé, taught on a Soviet collective farm.

Kathy Boudin also attended receptions and functions with her parents at the Cuban Mission to the United Nations in New York. She also attended Case Western Reserve University School of Law for one year.

Can you imagine the irony of American parents going into debt to have their own children indoctrinated against them? They pay through the nose so their children can be taught to hate them, their country, their God. At least Red Russia did it for free.

[Zuse]

She should have class full of retired cops.

[mrsmel]

They had to know how this would look when they did it, and they still didn’t care. The left knows that it is now perfectly free to admit the truth of their agenda. After all, Hussein was re-elected in spite of Obamacare.

If I were a relative of one of the murdered men, I would picket in front of Columbia every chance I got. How about a sign that says “Columbia employs the woman who murdered my dad.”

[Conserev1]

It’s asinine she ever got the job in the first place!
Prob because she had a contact to POTUS! Great for a resume!

[cherry]

Glen Beck said it.....wherever Marxists exist, there is always violence, and death...

these people believe their superior to wee little people, thus our deaths are just collateral for their ultimate goals....

[wardaddy]

One of my old flames taught at the Little Red School house
...tony
Dylan’s kid was there.

Later she taught Robert Chambers at St Davids

Amazing how many of the college radicals were Jewish bourgeoisie from longtime collectivist families

Horowitz coined the now famous term.....

I actually kept up with this crowd in my youth but never recognized this till much later

But contrary to myth....most boomer kids were center or right of center....see election 1972

Now....under 30 kids are considerably more leftist and with a harder social leftist wet dream a 1971 radical would have never thought of

Though white youth vote declined for Bro in 2012

Another oddity

Her older brother is a federal appeals court judge nominated by Bush One

[onyx]

LOL. So you dated a Red Diaper baby! Man, you sure got around wardaddy! Traveled in very interesting circles! You might even have an FBI file! Did your sweet and proper Southern Mom know about this? :)

I was floored to read about her Federal Appellate judge brother, appointed by #41 (figures).

Also of keen interest:
Boudin and Gilbert’s son Chesa Boudin was adopted by former Weatherman leaders Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn! Small circle of tight domestic terrorist friends, now family.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Her father, covert Communist Party member (1950’s) Leonard Boudin, may turn out to be a Soviet asset, possibly working through the Czech STB secret police.

A lot of evidence including the Dodd-Stern spies case, indicate it. Some of this may come out in the near future as documentation becomes clearer.

[RedHeeler]

Her and kin, have been around a long time. What’s the real deal, in this story. Hecky durn, who knows? Anyone here? Love to hear it.

[Flick Lives]

Columbia hires a terrorist because it is part of being “radical chic” to use Tom Wolfe’s phrase. One can’t be a truly with-it Leftist unless one entertains those with true murderous left-wing ideas; to be “more righteous” than your other Leftists neighbors.
