The president of Ole Miss has resigned following a growing angry protest over his inaction following student complaints about racist incidents:
In September, the president of the Missouri Students Association, Payton Head, who is black, posted on Facebook that a group of men had yelled racial slurs at him, and said it was not the first time he had suffered that kind of abuse at the university.
In early October, the Legion of Black Collegians, a student group, was rehearsing a homecoming event, when a white man walked onto their stage and used racial epithets about the black students. When activists tried to confront Mr. Wolfe days later at the Homecoming Parade, he avoided them, leading to accusations that he was dismissive of their concerns.
Another offensive act involved a swastica smeared on a wall in feces.
This behavior is deplorable. The first line of offense is the students themselves. They are not victims and have every right to fight back and shout these miscreants down. They do this with great gusto when a conservative dares to speak on campus when invited. Why is it different in the case of a racist jerk?
Unfortunately this racial activism is not at all surprising given the divisive response to various incidents by our President who has fomented anger toward white police officers as a means to push a black activist agenda of victimhood.
Breitbart has video that shows how protests are created. One quote is significant:
In this video, one of the activists admits, “We’re trying to break the system down… it just so happens we’re starting with him.”
More from Breitbart here on similar protests at Yale.
As was reading about this I was reminded of video that surfaced in the Occupy Wall Street protests. Bill Ayers was squatting with a group of protesters instructing them on the art of protest. The Blaze provides a quote:
Ayers directed the students to rely on their natural “tools”:
“I think you should use your brilliance, your humor, your wisdom, your body to dramatize the violence that exists. But we do not live in a neutral — not when there’s a trillion dollar military budget — the biggest in the world, not when they’re recruiting kids to be in the service, not when every athletic event begins with guns and marching…that’s a violent culture and that’s where we live…”
Well it is now.
Where is an S. I. Hayakawa when you need him?????
Now that these losers have been successful in disrupting the campus, we can expect this kind of behavior to be repeated across the country. And doubt if it will stop until the Alumni speak up by curtailing their donation$.
The inmates are running the asylum. Time for students to look at vocational schools instead of the hotbed of Marxism that has become our college campuses.
Good call J.

No comment. It speaks for itself.
Papa! Them Hippies are back!
It is our constitutional duty to stand up. We plan to rise and fight for true freedom. This fascist corporate coup and one world gov ran by a handful of corporations will be dealt with. Racism will be dealt with.
I for one hope to see more young people organize.
Free Speech is for everybody right?
This morning I saw video of a woman at the protest who was described as a professor of communications trying to stop a reporter from taking pictures. He tried to explain he had a first amendment right to be there and she started calling for help from fellow agitators to help her intimidate him out.
This is the type of person that is educating the next generation. Pathetic! This is not a serious educator. this is an activist propagandist.
Scroll down in the comments section. The journalism school dean at the university slammed this professor and wanted everyone to know she’s not on his staff. She has taught there since 2003 and “focuses her research on contemporary pop culture, often through a feminist lens, according to her academic bio. Her recent papers include studies of Lady Gaga, “Twilight,” “Fifty Shades of Grey” and Martha Stewart.”
Wow…there’s a class that will prepare a young person for a job, huh?
Quote: “one of the activists admits, “We’re trying to break the system down… it just so happens we’re starting with him.”
Sounds more and more like this is a nation wide movement. Evidence Yale where a panel discussing free speech, sponsored by the William F. Buckley Jr. program, was protested by students shouting them down. As the author, Kevin D. Williamson, writes the students are “utterly immune to irony.”
I just heard on the radio that the kid on the Missouri campus that was holding a hunger strike couldn’t clearly articulate the reason for his strike.
The American Thinker reports a larger problem in the college town in Missouri. An uptick in off campus violence perpetrated mostly by blacks:
Also from AT:
Radical left activism…the president’s main source of pre-presidential, pre-legislative experience. Is it any wonder he has helped to spawn agitation and division in our nation?

A prank. Who would imagine such a thing on a college campus?
“The student protest at the University of Missouri began as a response to a serious problem — outbursts of vile racism on campus — and quickly devolved into an expression of a renewed left-wing hostility to freedom of expression.”
…
“The upsurge of political correctness is not just greasy-kid stuff, and it’s not just a bunch of weird, unfortunate events that somehow keep happening over and over. It’s the expression of a political culture with consistent norms, and philosophical premises that happen to be incompatible with liberalism. The reason every Marxist government in the history of the world turned massively repressive is not because they all had the misfortune of being hijacked by murderous thugs. It’s that the ideology itself prioritizes class justice over individual rights and makes no allowance for legitimate disagreement.”

Well, of course! This follows the left-wing pattern. The “vile racism” was a fraud and the left is hostile to freedom of speech except for their own. Expect racist and Neo-Nazi propaganda to be passed out by the left at the next public Tea Party rally in Chico.
Pie you’re right. The left has become so radical and extreme there is no room for freedom, choice, free speech or dissent and that invites the tyranny of bullying and that eventually leads to tyranny at the level of the state. Under that system the wealthy, the beautiful, the talented get special elitist perks and the rest are forced to work for set wages and live on the crumbs from the elitist table.

Pie you use propaganda as sources? Try using the real people ther. The people who have an issue.
Goebbels is alive I see.
Dewey, you are an insulting idiot, but being insulted by the likes of you is a badge of honor.
“The media will pretend that true racism exists at a university where the administration fights racism at every turn, but will ignore murders that cross racial lines so long as the victims are white and the perpetrators black. There will be no riots or protests over Tanya Chamberlain. There will be no cameras.”

This would be funny if it were not for the ring of truth it represents. Reminds me of the mindless and very real hordes of Dewey robots at Occupy “consensus” rallies which were led and controlled by left-wing activist “facilitators.”
Delusional
Next stop is one flight up.
These people have not gone away. MEMORIZE! The facilitator’s hand signals.

Old white people complaining ? What a black student were subjected to could not be true cause you say so? When children speak out continuously and are not heard they act out. They are heard now.
Radical? Like the racist Mass murders? Like killing black people in a church after doing Bible Study with them? Yea there is no racism problems in the US. White people know best.
MO is a hotbed of racism period. #BlackLivesMatter and I am glad to see people stand up. There is no place for racism in the USA. There is no master race.
I am glad to see Anonymous take on the KKK after their threats.
Re: “MO is a hotbed of racism period.”
Idiot scumbag.
Setting up “Epic Fail” boy is fun, but not really fair. Dewey’s constant lunacy is the sign of a very sick mind.
Dewey should be proud of this …
