Violence erupted at a Michigan law school Thursday when protestors tried to block a speech by Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo.
Police were called after protestors pulled a fire alarm prior to the speech on immigration policies. There were at least three violent incidents with protestors targeting student backers of the event, Tancredo, R-Littleton, said today.
"One was spit on, one was kicked, and one was punched," Tancredo said in an e-mail. "Tires were also slashed."

My prediction is that before the next election someone will kill a prominent conservative, and someone in the MSM will imply they had it coming.

Who says that liberals have no core values they are willing to fight for? Banning speech they don't agree with is one of their core values!

Tires were also slashed.
That's a fine group of people, at this gathering, supporting their criminals with criminal activity.

Bring it.
The liberals, ANSWER types and the like have gotten by on the common courtesy of others for quite a while now. Like any child, they'll continue to push their boundaries until brought to heel.
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you. Our pres could take a lesson from Conan.

when protestors tried to block a speech Of course they did. Someone speaking out in favor of enforcing our existing immigration laws is simply too dangerous. ....dangerous enough to respond with violence, apparently.

That is frighteningly accurate.

Yet again they show their disdain for free speech.
And they are upset because GWB said you are either with us or against us.

It's happened, I'm sure, but it sure does seem more commonly -- MUCH more -- done by the left against the right, particularly in academia.

someone in the MSM will imply they had it coming. then someone ... heaven forbid ... will kill a prominent member of the MSM. The difference would be that the MSM member WOULD have it coming

The Peaceful Party of Democrat strikes again.
Kinda' like the sharia law people in Somalia.
And they worry about the "right wing" people.

I really don't consider myself to be a violent person - but if someone punched me, I'd punch back...hard.
