How I Became A Terrorist (Bill Ayers cancelled at Boston College)
Boston Herald ^ | March 31, 2009 | Michael Graham

How I became a terrorist:

Friday morning I found out that Bill Ayers was scheduled to appear at Boston College the following Monday - yesterday. When a listener to my talk show tipped me off, I didn’t believe it. And because BC was being so careful not to promote it, it took me several Google searches to confirm the details.

Yes, the unrepentant founder of the Weather Underground terrorist organization that bombed a dozen American targets, advocated murder and whose members killed at least two police officers, among others, was invited to speak on the campus of a Catholic university.

Forget “Blessed are the peacemakers.” At BC, it was to be “Blessed are the bomb-makers.”

So I spoke out. I reminded Bostonians that Katherine Ann Power - identified by the FBI as a member of the Weather Underground - participated in the bank robbery in which Boston police officer Walter Schroeder was killed.

I pointed out that the only reason Ayers didn’t kill more people was because the spoiled suburban pukes who followed him had skipped shop class and blew themselves up building one of his nail bombs.

The bomb’s intended target? A soldiers’ dance at Fort Dix. But Ayers’ plan went “wrong” and the soldiers lived.

In other words, I just shared the facts. Friday evening, after a day of getting pounded by angry BC alums and horrified citizens, the college did the right thing and barred this repugnant cretin from its campus.

And that’s when the Angry Left turned their sights on me.

I attacked “free speech.” I was a talk radio hypocrite, only supporting controversial opinions from the right. My favorite is the blogger bemoaning “a verbal terrorist assault by right-wing yakker Michael Graham.”

That’s right - the guy who founded a terrorist group and said...

I was extremely gratified when I heard that B.C. had “disinvited” Ayers. I was unaware of Micheal Graham’s role, but I suppose I shouldn’t have been.

Mike, ya done good.

Here is a clip from Ayers' wikipedia entry:

"Ayers is currently a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, College of Education. His interests include teaching for social justice, urban educational reform, narrative and interpretive research, children in trouble with the law, and related issues.[2] He began his career in primary education while an undergraduate, teaching at the Children’s Community School (CCS), a project founded by a group of students and based on the Summerhill method of education. After leaving the underground, he earned an M.Ed from Bank Street College in Early Childhood Education (1984), an M.Ed from Teachers College, Columbia University in Early Childhood Education (1987) and an Ed.D from Teachers College, Columbia University in Curriculum and Instruction (1987). He has edited and written many books and articles on education theory, policy and practice, and has appeared on many panels and symposia."


Mr. Ayers has a permanent podium/microphone to taint and twist the future teachers of America. It's refreshing that someone is willing to deny this insidious cretin a further opportunity to spread his poison.

Hats off to a man who knows how to fight liberal scum.

Thanks for a great post, suspects.

Why post the crap he would like us to read? He's a killer. Why are you running with the stuff he would show his mother or use to apply for a job.

Why put a liberal clinker on the thread? Do you want us to know about all his "accomplishments"? And if so, why? Are you his PR person?

If I want a press release about some liberal killer, I'll go to a liberal site.

Please explain your motive.

Here's another one - a comment in the first 5 that essentially includes a PR spot for a liberal killer. I'll ping you to these when I see them. Hope you'll do the same.

It is amazing how only far-left radicals have first admendment rights.

Amen! Glad to see that this coddled cop-killer was turned away. Even better would be to see him dancing at the end of a rope from a tree...

I think the point of the post was that Ayres is very influential in what children are being taught. Having outrage and stopping Ayres from speaking at BC is small compared to the damage Ayres is doing by indoctronating small children.

It’s more amazing that this turd has found a refuge in Chicago in the Daley school system.

Thank you. That academia has accepted and honored this vile person is a national shame. I am so pleased that alumni of Boston College (of all places) made it too uncomfortable for the unrepentant bomber to appear.

Maybe Graham can turn his attention to Notre Dame?

Ummm, the fact that he's teaching should be enough. I don't need to see his vita.

It was a source which showed Ayres current position. The poster explained their position, and it was not one in support of Ayres. The fact the source tried to spin Ayres as some kind of superhero in explaining his position is not really the fault of the poster and was clearly not the intent.
