January 28, 2009 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - St. Mary's College in Moraga CA received a black eye this evening as a large and angry crowd of protesters turned out to provide counterpoint to the Ayers' presence.
The event was organized by the Simple Justice not Social Justice Coalition' an ad hoc organization comprised of many partners, that came together in response to Ayers.
Since the public became aware of the controversial founder of the Weather Underground's scheduled speech, college officials have stubbornly maintained that he was nothing more than a respected professor of education and a proponent of "social justice."
Others, more familiar with Ayers' violent history disagree.

Former San Francisco Police Sgt James Bera was also at the protest. He was stationed at the Park Police station when it was attacked by the Weather Underground and produced a large fence staple, many of which were glued to the Weather Underground bomb, used for maximum anti-personnel effect, that killed officer McDonnell and seriously injured five of his fellow policemen. Good for him. I would have waved it under that SOB's nose!

GREAT work, Jim! Is St. Mary's a Catholic college? If so, I'm stunned they allowed a terrorist like Ayers even onto their property, much less speak there. Then again, nothing surprises me anymore, regarding stuff happening on US college campuses these days...
I know that part of the Bay Area fairly well... my stepson grew up "next door" to Moraga in Orinda. Spent a lot of time out there in the early to late '90s... nice area.

Sickening decision for St. Mary's. I know many good folk who went there. I hope their donations from Alumni dry-up unless St. Mary's apologizes for such a blunder.
So very sad. Beautiful Campus; extremely bad decision. Cal Berkeley is only about 30 minutes away, and they didn't even invite them.
