Any money from the federal government finding its way to Brown in any form (grants, scholarships, tuition aid) should be completely cut off.

That will get the attention of the punks a lot faster than holding hands and singing Kumbaya.

There is a strong totalitarian streak in liberalism.

Liberals are all about tolerance and free speech and such, as long as you are shouting liberal ideas or slogans.

Anyone wanting to discuss conservative ideas will be silenced. The liberals who are so tolerant insist on silencing anyone who deviates from liberal group think.

Slightly off topic, but the liberal Juan Williams is a prime example. After being fired from NPR, and the head of NPR suggesting that William talk to his psychiatrist about his fear of Muslim men, the conservative leaning Fox News gave him a full time job. Juan is liberal as ever on the air, from what I hear, but, the point is, he has a place to speak freely on the conservative leaning network. While the very liberal NPR fired him.

A harbinger of what all those scu&bags will do when they gain absolute power.

IMHO

Those who fear cannot hear.
Those who shout have the fear of doubt.
All is well when all think the same,
No fear, no doubt, no blame, no shame - - - .

I’m not thrilled with stop and frisk but I am also not trilled that the left is slouching toward their totalitarian roots.

This is the civil and sophisticated left, so urbane and intellectually superior, willing to listen to all sides of an issue.

We have to respond in kind.

There really is no other choice, and CW-II will be the proof.

Wanna bet lots of them are involved in zero’s little band of bandits that he wants to be as strong our military?

I don’t want to sound over the top but this is beginning to get scary. The band that got fired for halloween because they weren’t black at Hampshire College? The cabinet secretary that compared evangelicals to the Muslim Brotherhood? Ray Kelly gets hooted down like Brown University is a Nazi beerhall? How far away are we from re-education camps in Alaska? Seriously - they pretend they are independent thinkers that value individualism but they’re just a group-think mob.

“Juan is liberal as ever on the air, from what I hear, but, the point is, he has a place to speak freely on the conservative leaning network. While the very liberal NPR fired him.”

Fox isn’t conservatie, and the Juan Williams affair demonstrated that for any doubters. The left doesn’t give conservatives a forum for their views, and right shouldn’t accomodate the leftists that fall out of favor with the Dems.

I'm against cops asking for your papers merely because you are black, but I highly doubt this is why they are shouting. Do I even have to guess if someone like Ahmadinejad or Pelosi or some other hardline government fascist was speaking they would be quiet as a mouse?

This reminds me of Columbia - They have a dinner for Ahmadinejad and they are all wide-eyed with admiration while he spoke. Then when Ann Coulter came it was non-stop hostility, I think they even threw a pie at her or maybe that was at another college, but of course missed because male liberals throw like John Kerry.

With DeBlasio about to become mayor of NYC, I hope that Kelly resigns before he is sworn in...

There is a strong totalitarian streak in liberalism.


One recent example was the IRS targeting Tea Party and other conservative groups. Progressives saw nothing wrong with that.

Liberal motto:

Anyone who sent their kids to Brown is probably in full agreement with this attack on free speech.

Duh. Everyone thinks this is cute and wants to keep up the “imagine if they were Tea Partyers” mantra.

Unless you take back the media and education our freedoms and our wealth are gone.

I have more or less quit watching Fox news. Can’t stand their ‘fair and balanced’ schtick. Every time they have someone that makes sense on they have someone with them that is unhinged spouting Obama talking points.

...and haven't the spine or the integrity to uphold boring American values like free expression.

It is actually simpler than that. If Kelly were lying, that could easily be proven. It is because he is telling the (uncomfortable) truth that he has to be silenced.

You have the video. Any student taking part in this debacle needs to be suspended from the college for at least a year, if not permanently...

Those protesters who are not students (bussed in) need to be prosecuted for trespass and public disruption...
