Maybe she should explain the idea of a retroactive abortion and see if he understands.

Not to mention that King is very, very gay.

lbunnell@uwst.edu is the email address to request his removal from the student senate.

He’s conveniently leaving out the fact that most of the paying for his “education” is being done by taxpayers. This is a state school and he’s probably also got federally subsidized guaranteed student loans. Student tuition covers a whopping 14.9% of the University’s operating budget. http://www.wisc.edu/about/facts/budget.php#budgetrevenue

I would be so ashamed of if my adult children did anything like this. If he acts like this I wonder what she is like. Why people have to be so disrespectful is beyond me.

“Liberals are all about choice UNTIL you choose differently than them.”

It is the normal communist/socialist viewpoint.

This post (<-click) shows how corruption in the USSC since the days of FDR arguably led to the USSC's scandalous legalization of abortion.

I guess we know what Rodney thinks about life. He also doesn’t represent the students as a student Senator. Typical lefty, the laws and rules don’t apply to him. He’s a fascist.

OMG, there are a lot of strange people in Wisconsin universities.

There, FTFY (Fixed that for ya)

..and I would know! I live in Madison, so you can only imagine what it's like being a conservative living here. Thick skin is a requirement.

How do you think he’d react if it was the folks with the “Eyes Wide Open” display of combat boots and civilian shoes, or crosses with all our fallen troops names on them?

He displays disgusting ignorance and a complete lack of tolerance ...

Student governments at universities are generally composed of self-absorbed leftists.

You can tell from the video - complete hissy fit.

What surprised me is that the Campus Security did not stop him from continuing to dismantle the display, as he was being escorted away.

"The freedom of speech does not cover these signs and symbols."

Can the pro-life students bring a civil rights case against this goon and the school that he represents? Would the ACLU do it pro-bono?

There must be something about being named “Rod King.” Can’t we just get along?

Few years back they had a professor doing this at a school down in Kentucky, but they're just ignorant hillbillies, not at all like the smooth, suave, debonaire smart guys at University of Wisconsin.

No doubt/sarc.
