It gives me such a warm and fuzzy feeling to know that this kind of visceral hatred is being generated at our institutions of "finer" learning.

Was Bill Clinton or any of his advisers ever "pelted" after giving a speech?

No, cause the perps would have just vanished or been audited till the cows come home!

Boy...we are raising a classy generation, aren't we?

Hmmmm, wasn't there another thread somewhere here that talked about the vitriol of the left and right being equal? Well, in adherence to the FairMedia Act (:smirky:) perhaps one of our resident leftists can post the video of right-wing protesters pelting a high-profile liberal.

< ........ crickets chirping .......... >Good suggestion, Homegirl... Some of our resident lefty attention-hogs certainly can come up with an equal comparison, since they regularly assert that both sides are equally guilty...

Still waiting... Crickets still chirping....

This is just some of the Brown-shirt tactics we can expect from the left in the next election... If - ahem, WHEN - they lose this next election, I predict we're gonna see open, violent acts on the part of these "free American Citizens"...

It creeps me out to see this type of behavior more and more...it is so far from what I consider to be "American". Then again, kids are not being taught to be proud of being American in school anymore are they....it's not PC...reason #4,965 that I am so glad we homeschool.........

Well, I'm proud to be teaching in a public school, where I can undo some of the effects of the Asshole Left and innoculate kids against them with the simple truth.

Fox, for some reason the thought of trying to get mercury back into a thermometer comes to mind...

:D

Actually, most kids today don't pay any attention to the mindless drivel they're so often exposed to. As all young people naturally, they look for leaders even if they don't know that's what they're doing. Channeling that is enjoyable.

DF my hat is off to you. My brother is public school teacher. But so many teachers have been brainwashed by the Left that don't know what else to parrot. And the young "skulls of mush" to not have the resources to resist. It is both fascinating and bleak to observe the changes in friends of my 15 yr old who have been part of the system since we left it when she was 8.
