My mother always said we needed a few more Kent States back in the day. Not saying I agree with her, just saying.

When I was in college I enjoyed it when prominent liberals came and always afforded them the respect of allowing them to voice their opinions without any of the obnoxiousness you see from the left whenever a conservative speaks.

I don’t understand these liberals who proclaim themselves to be so open-minded but fight against speech. Personally I like to hear from those with whom I have disagreements because it forces me to grapple with their opinions which in turn can help make mine stronger and better reasoned. Heck a persuasive argument can make me reconsider my opinion. Perhaps thats what they are afraid of. They fear that Palin will make arguments that they cannot refute.

Brainless twits; they won’t be adult human beings until they’ve been out in the real world for a while and seen a thing or two.

Free advertising by AP for the anti Palin event. Hardly newsworthy before the fact.

"Pushes back" makes it sound as though someone attacked them. How about College group attempts to stifle an opposing point of view?

Leftie media - lying clowns & buffoons.

"College Group Pushes Back Against Palin Speech

Doesn't "push back" imply that someone has "pushed first"?

Has Palin "pushed" anyone at this liberal mecca?

When are the college Deans going to step in and declare this infraction of free speech to be a crime, and toss the perps out of the school until they grow up.

Oops...I forgot, most of the deans at these liberal strongholds haven't grown up either, or, developed any integrity.

Non-violent protests and a competing event are fine. Demanding that the college rescind Palin’s invitation is not. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Looks like Sarah's about to get the "Ann Coulter" treatment. No doubt, there will be a band of about 200 "committed" student "activists" (read, fellow-travellers who borrowed student IDs from real students) who will start threatening imminent violence against persons and property, and the speech will be shut down "for the public's safety" by the "benevolent" fascists in charge of the university.

The real story is that the foundation that is presenting Palin is doing it as a fundraiser for student loans and scholarships. Yee is upset because he was too dumb to present the legislation package that would allow inspection of the fees paid to speakers by private foundations that he is now calling for. And he didn’t volunteer any of his campaign funds to replace the raised funds if the event is canceled. I’m not sure if that makes him an imbecile or a moron.

I didn’t catch any word that the ‘student’ sponsored event would provide any student funding as a result of its protest. They must be teaching How to Cut Your Own Throats 101 at CSU - Stanislus

Are they any big, beefy Republicans that attent that school that can stand in front of the doors and do nothing but look menacing? Not the same as attempting to scare away people from voting like libs do, ya know!

Being led and/or supported by the campus Ron Paul club, no doubt.
