Conservatives ALWAYS Feel "Unsafe", which is why the KKK was born.

The students said they felt unsafe with those ideas being expressed. They lobbied for "safe zones" which in practice was the entire campus.

It's still a disgrace that a university would allow violence to overrule reason. My feeling is that any student engaging in violence for any reason should be expelled or at the least suspended. Violence has no place at an institution of learning.

I don't see the Right rioting. It appears to me that the street riots and yelling and screaming matches originate with the sickos on the Left.

As for this "honoree", it is a disgrace that a murderer like this should be honored in any way. If I was a cop, knowing that he bombed (or caused the bombing, of a police barracks) I would call in sick that day

This is a disgrace, but its liberal heaven NYC.....

SHAME on the organizers!
Just perfect across the board. I repped the post.

I'd feel unsafe anytime in NYC. But I have no intention of ever setting foot in that hellhole.

If you'd read up on your history you'd know the KKK was founded by the Democratic Party as a way to keep those newly freed slaves "in their place". Those slaves that were emancipated by a Republican president. And were freed and made citizens and given the right to vote by the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments, which were opposed by all or virtually all Democrats in the Senate and House. The list goes on, but Democrats have a much darker history when it comes to slavery and blacks in general. And no, I'm not a Republican, but I did learn my history.

If you really did know your history you would also know that the stances on the parties changed. The Democrats were pro state rights, Republicans wanted centralized power. Now does that sound like the stance each one of those parties would take today?

Well that make sense, considering it was the Republicans that pushed through the Civil Rights Act in the 60s..

Oh...wait...
