I don’t want to sound like an alarmist but I’m glad I have my lifetime CCW.

Also another point in favor of concealed carry on campus?

Absolutely.

It would be nice if the trash ended up with criminal records to follow them the rest of their lives, but it seems improbable.

Any tax guys on here that could tell us if there is any particular up/down on charging off your CCW expenses on your home business?

Yes, the liberals KNEW they WOULD get away with it.

But the liberals are so “open-minded” and “peaceful” ...

How do we contact the victim, let her know that WE - outside of her tolerant, liberal classmates in the real world - do care and respect her views?

You bought a “tool” for your business, paid a tax, paid a license fee, didn’t you?

There are many hungry lawyers in the Twin Cities ...had that been my daughter I would be suing Augsburg College for allowing hate crime on campus and filing a civil rights and hate crime suit against the perpetrators. Imagine how this would have played if the student attacked would have been Black?

And according to the “Public Safety” office (link > http://web.augsburg.edu/~Pack/CrimeLogs/2008-11-CrimeLog.pdf )

Seems the student was only punched.

there’d be a lynching.

There is a misconception that lynching was only perpertrated on blacks in our history.

Far many more whites were lynched in our country during our growth and expansion. Lynching often occurred where there was no viable legal system. I wonder if you are again coming to that place.

This story just makes me shudder. I am so, so thankful my daughter decided to attend a very conservative college.

Stories like this just go to show that “tolerance” is an enormous lie.

I agree. If you have a kid going through the college admissions process, you should interview them. Besides questions about academics, ask about the political atmosphere. Explain that your kid is a white, Christian, heterosexual, pro-life conservative.

Ask them how safe will he be physically. Ask how he will be perceived by the professors and other students. Will his views be respected? Will his grades be affected? Will the administration stand up for his rights? Then get it in writing.

If enough people started asking politically pointed questions, maybe they would get the point. Remember a college is selling a product. Become an informed consumer and let them know there are other places willing to take your money.

Amen.
My 6’4” Log Cabin Republican son sees the discrimination every day at his high school. Fortunately, he is strongly politically aware, extremely conservative (against gay marriage because marriage is for procreation), and has been taught by his FReep parents how to argue correctly. Recently voted “most intimidating” in his senior class superlatives. He’s chosen a small college (smaller than his high school) with no whiff of political agenda - amazing but true.

Leftists are the most deranged, angry people I have ever known. And I have known quite a few. How sick.

"What happened to 18-year old Annie Grossmann was perhaps a double whammy, of racism and ideological hate."

Thanks and kudos to the author for not calling it "reverse" racism.
