Anything that takes issue with their position is "hate mail". Anyone who disagrees with them is a hater.

(rooster) suckers.
In most countries, the numbskulls would be lined up against a wall and
I hope they enjoy and cherish their freedom in this great Land.
To: Arkinsaw
They and every other nicompoop in this land who spouts PC-vomit that endangers us, should be flooded with even MORE e-mails. They'll keep their little anti American mouths SHUT once they sense the big backlash slap in thier spoiled, pimpled faces.

"I deeply resent the implication that by planning this service in this way, we are unpatriotic," said Berdahl at a press conference Thursday. "We believe it is a disservice to those who died to allow this memorial to become a political rally of any kind." Seems to me, the exclusion of the red, white and blue ribbons was the political move here fella.

"You're nothing but an anti-American hate monger," said an anonymous e-mail sent to Graduate Assembly President Jessica Quindel. "You offend and disgust me and other veterans of this great country." How is this hate mail? Looks like an opinion to me.

How can accusing someone of hatred be "hate mail" when the Left does it all the time? Oh, I forgot the double standard...

I wouldnt mind having an email address for the Quindel creature. She was behind the mock Israeli checkpoints that were erected at berkely.

"You're nothing but an anti-American hate monger," said an anonymous e-mail sent to Graduate Assembly President Jessica Quindel. "You offend and disgust me and other veterans of this great country." Given that there reason for not allow patriotic display was so as not to offend, I guess they failed. Or is it only minorities that have a right to be offended?
To: NorCoGOP
We're trying to include all voices and are being outcast and seen as wrong, which goes against American ideals. I think that shows the irony of trying to be patriotic." Huh?

I recommend the students who want only white ribbons should have their own separate memorial assembly -- and to avoid any confusion, they should post signs around their group reading "WHITES ONLY" and "NO COLOREDS" so that everyone will know what sort of ribbon they should wear. That should go over well at Berkeley.

I typed 'jessica quindel' into Google's image search and I think this is her (note the berkeley email address below). What a disgrace she is.

"I think that shows the irony of trying to be patriotic." That's the whole point. You leftists have to "try" to be patriotic (and do a horrible job if it when you do). By way of contrast, American patriots just plain are patriotic. Patriotism is not some unfamiliar emotion that we have to artifically conjure.

"You're nothing but an anti-American hate monger," said an anonymous e-mail sent to Graduate Assembly President Jessica Quindel. "You offend and disgust me and other veterans of this great country." How was this, in any shape manner or form, "hate mail"? There's no hatred in what was written, just disgust.

These "Liberals" should be held in contempt, and they should be so informed.

"You're nothing but an anti-American hate monger," said an anonymous e-mail sent to Graduate Assembly President Jessica Quindel. "You offend and disgust meand other veterans of this great country."Seems to me this isn't a threat. It's an expression of an opinion. Isn't the expression of this opinion protected by our constitution?
ASUC President Jesse Gabriel and members of his office said they also received hate messages.
Frankly, I don't see this as hate mail. A careful reading would note that the writer thinks the organizers are the real haters. And the writer is simply expressing his/or her displeasure with their actions.
These comments are the very ones protected by our first ammendment. Voices should not be silenced because they reveal differences of opinion. Those differences of opinion are exactly what it was intended to protect.
Students who received hate messages said they have been unfairly singled out and added the messages have taken away from the memorial's importance.
"The controversy has detracted from the idea of grieving the loss of life," Quindel said. "We're trying to include all voices and are being outcast and seen as wrong,
which goes against American ideals. I think that shows the irony of trying to be patriotic."
Can someone please explain to me how the inclusion of red, white and blue ribbons would silence certain voices?
The defense of the defenseless generally worsens the situation. The comments I have reposted here conform to that premise.

I believe it is proper for people to contact this person and express their displeasure with her actions. But I would hope they would address the specific actions she took, and keep the direct insults to a bare minimum. She is clearly a fruitcake, but calling her names gains nothing.

I recieved an email article from Hubby about the planned tribute Berkley is planning. I can't post it because there is no link with it. Berkley will not include the flag, or red white and blue. Nothing with God in it, and no patriotism, or anything that supports Bush. They referred to the U.S. Flag as a symbol of aggression.
YIKES! What a bunch of weridos. At least they are all in one location.
