Ayers to speak in Omaha

The people of Omaha want this self-professed terrorist in town? I don't think so! Call the hotel and tell them JUST SAY NO!

Or might it be better to let the terrorist in town and have a huge protest waiting for this communist pig author of Obama's books. I don't see how this promotes academic freedom in the state.

That's funny. His early life activities don't apply when those activities are focused against him. When he's directing a violent protest against the Vietmnam War, to him, it's a virtuous thing. But when others direct a protest against him, along with the threats of violence that he, himself, used some 40 years ago, he views the cancellation of his speech as,"Is a public university the personal fiefdom or the political clubhouse of the governor?... Do we collapse in fear if a small mob gathers with torches at the gates?”. So, his small mob gathering with torches at the gate was a virtuous thing, but theirs is a travesty on free speech. What hypocrisy!!!

Is this what the citizens of Omaha want? No it isn't! The only freedom it promotes is that of a self-professed terrorist under the First Amendment. The A-ACLU is a member of the Academic Coalition of Nebraska. Just what "else" does the Academic Coalition push? Perhaps it's time to give them a stiff look?
