I cannot believe how students voted to endorse a Soviet-era name of a group which killed Americans. It is the same as students voting to name an area for a Palestinian or Iraqi homicide bomber or naming their areas of support for Usama bin Laden or Saddam Hussein.

Having signs of Uncle Sam wanting people to join the USSR is a disgust. Endoring them is utterly wrong.

They're college kids who thought the name sounded cool. Half of them probably had no idea what it stood for in real life. Lighten up.

"disrespected soldiers killed by troops of the same name, a department official said"

It was a dumb name, but to which war was he referring?
The Soviet Union was a US ally in World War II.
