NORMAN, Okla. -- The University of Oklahoma has put up a memorial to a student who died when a homemade bomb exploded near the OU football stadium.
A stone with the name of Joel Hinrichs III was placed outside the OU student union by the student affairs division.
...
Hinrichs' father -- Joel Hinrichs Jr. -- said the university offered to have the stone placed.
Families normally pay about $150 for the memorials, and Hinrichs said he's offered to pay, but OU hasn't sent him a bill.

, who got it from Michell Malkin
I know Boren (former Senator now OU President) always was "out there", but this ridiculous.
More information and this local (OU) reaction are on the Channel 7 (Denver) site.
I was just kind of horrified," Jenny Clemons told The Oklahoman. "I don't think he has any business being out here."

A memorial stone for a bomber?
What next - - a memorial for the VA Tech killer?
That’s.....bizarre.
Gotta be kidding me. By the same logic, Salt Lake City should erect a monument for the drunk illegal Mexican that killed a family of six.
once again another example of one of liberal logic’s finest and proudest moment. the unabomber must be drooling...
The amusing part of this story is that the parents apparently want this memorial placed. I’m guessing they are still in denial and think he didn’t do it.
Mohammed Atta memorial planned soon.
I understand he had pretty blew eyes.
How about an effigy of the POS hanging in the stadium entrance instead.
“Mohammed Atta memorial planned soon.”
Sadly...it will happen sooner than you think.
“A memorial stone for a bomber?

Yep.....
There already is one. There were 32 stones for the murdered, some student 'felt' it was the moral thing to do to put a stone for the killer. It was removed, then replaced.
I thought I read it here on FR, but I'll look around for the cite.

“Complete insanity” is the only phrase that comes to mind.
How about one for Timothy McVeigh while you are at it, Boren?
For once, I’m speechless.
You can’t have a stone if you have blue eyes or blond hair! If you blow up the Vatican and are a “minority” you are, at worst, a “victim.”

Uh, er...Not that there’s anything WRONG WITH THAT!
