The protester were like Hitler's borwnshirts. This was thuggery and intolerant intimidation.
The tactic is VERY VERY similar.
Hence the term 'fascists'. It's less about the political program advocated and more about the political means used.
hmmm, this shows how on the internet you can seem a different person entirely ... I thought you were a Russian guy, with that handle. I've read quite a few comments of your thinking it was a Russian perspective. LOL. now I see your bio says you are young, black, Christian, and sound like a very sharp guy.
Anyway, 'spetz", take care and if you are in Austin anytime, look me up. Cheers!
You just do not recruit for support or love our military in the greater King County area. They really hate that and these "peace" protestors will show their true colors every time.
Yup--they hate the military---right until their clueless a**ses need their protection.
FReep the college!
Anyone else think they should let them settle this a-la Heartbreak Ridge.
"The Pit"
From one soldier to another, Sergeant, I'll tell you why: We do it for the same reason my dad and my brother did, the same reason I did. We do it for my little girl. For your children. We do it because someone gave you and I a gift far greater than anything we deserved - the gift of growing up in a free country. Men and women far better than you or I died so that you and I could have the chance to grow up free. You and I took the chance that we might have to place our bodies between our homes and war's desolation so that our kids could grow up free.
That gift of freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We do it so that our grandchildren's grandchildren can grow up knowing and loving democracy and freedom as much as we do.
Thank you for your service, and for giving my daughter and I a free country to grow up in.
BTTT!!!
This makes me angry. The girl behind him is clearly flipping him off with both hands. *grrr!!!*
Thanks to you both.
Got it. Thanks. I've already got the emailer fired up and goin! Woo Hoo!

It was been my privilege
Thank you. I left two letters from myself and my spouse.
Thanks Daybreak! It is so good to see you, BTW! I am glad you did that for the good guys!

I don't know how to run a university, I am not as accomplished as you, so I hope you are not offended when I say you might want to teach those kids ...
1) some tolerance for other perspectives.
2) everybody has a right to speak freely
3) they were a mob
4) they are bullys

Maybe a debate can be organized. One that drills all the way down to the values of the opposing sides. Invite the media, and make sure it is at least 3 hours long, so there is plenty of time to drill all the way down.
They are young, they have the energy.
I don't expect that you micromanage your university, but I hope I don't hear of this happening at your university again.

I placed a call to the school and spoke to a woman that had a foreign accent. She was courteous BUT she could not understand my email address even tho I repeated it at least 5 times.
I want the students that participated in this mob scene suspended! The woman said she woud relay my message and I told her I would also like a response to my complaint. For her to take my email address and update me on what action the school was planning to take.
Finally,I hung up the phone in frustration but will call again today.
Yes, please add my name to your list.
