My interest was piqued when a friend informed me that signer Professor Akhil Reed Amar has been invited to bash the Second Amendment at the University of Utah Law School on October 25 at 7 PM. There is no reason to suspect that his apparent Middle-Eastern ancestry has anything to do with his anti-Second Amendment position, but because of his name his speech is likely to draw more interest than it would have prior to Septmeber 11.
Maybe the good FReepers of Utah should think about showing up to FReep the good Professor Amar (who was also one of Clinton's most vigorous defenders in academia during the impeachment debacle).
Note: I have no prior knowledge of "Viking Phoenix" or its other positions. I merely pulled this letter from its site. This same letter might have been pulled from any of a number of sites.

"Who ya gonna send to get my firearms, BOY?"
I doubt these liberal panty-boys will be out in body armor and assault rifles. I guess they figure the cops and military will.
Wrong.
PC and anti-Second Amendment rhetoric is dead after 11 SEP 01.
There is barely a mention of it.
Bellesiles is in the process of getting his lying a$$ kicked out of tenure since his book is being shown to be almost a complete fabrication.
