Black Lives Matter, the demonization of law enforcement, what will eventually come out as the truth at Mizzou, the powerless suddenly empowered, authority suddenly unempowered.

Those who created this beast think that they can control it. Just like they always think they can control the bad actor puppets we install across the globe. We can't do it internationally, and we sure as hell can't do it domestically. Keep feeding beast - it's very hungry.
Careful . . . .someone might accuse you of being a conspiracy theorist!

Liberals are intolerant totalitarians who, as they consider themselves to be superior beings, feel justified in limiting other people's rights.

It is funny that they do not see themselves as fascists at all, depite this behavior.

I listened to a podcast recently on current college students' tolerance and open-mindedness, and if I remember correctly, the studies suggested that every generation had become more tolerant than the last, but THIS GENERATION is the first to actually go backwards.

I'm not far removed from college, and I see this firsthand all the time. They think that tolerance = being completely intolerant of those who they deem to be intolerant. It's so twisted.

I HIGHLY recommend the podcast, even if you only listen to a few minutes of it

Should I bring up some of the actions of a small % of your group, and say thats what all of you are?

Of course I shouldnt. So why are you?
When this is happening on college campuses across the U.S., it needs to be brought to everyone's attention.

I'm seriously wondering if the election next year, 2016, will once again be the rise of the Silent Majority. Events like these are what empowered the Silent Majority the last time.

Every incident like this I see, I get one step closer to actually voting for Trump.

I think that's what 2016 may come down to (whether or not Trump is on the ballot). Most rational people will not vote for a candidate who is empathetic toward these very vile protesters, and I think it's clear which side of the aisle they identify with.

At Yale they might be trust fund babies forever.

But at University of Missouri?
