Take a presidential poll. I bet I can guess which candidate is overwhelmingly supported at this enlightened educational establishment.

PS I bet they have a different view of the value of a police presence at Northern Illinois University.

The tolerant left rears it's ugly head again....

I love the one comment that I saw on tv from one of the students "that there were mistakes made on both sides", come on, they arrested a guy for starting a fight, I guess that's just a mistake that the police shouldn't make, upholding the law.

That is really sad. The irony is that this happened at a hippie school that is all about peace and love. It reminds me of the Battle of Seattle. A bunch of people that think they are all foward thinking resorting to violence. These folks think they are so advanced. What they really are is a bunch of stupid little babys. I hope the participants of this one end up in prison and are treated like the common criminals that they are.

Bob said, "The irony is that this happened at a hippie school that is all about peace and love"

Having seen the 60's up close and personal, I long ago realized that "peace and love" was just another term for self-gratification. It sounded noble but was just "I'll do what I want" and "Everybody else should do what I want". I see that a lot nowdays in the "peace" movement, "global warming" movement and "Obama" movement. Not that peace, anti-global warming or Obama are bad in themselves, but the movements ("isms") that align themselves are extremely self-serving and selfish.

"Evergreen has tried to rid itself of an image as a place that cultivates radicalism." I'm not sying you are wrong about that, but a for instance would be helpful. Have they, for instance, tried to hire a Republican? Or brought a speaker to campus who was right of Jane Fonda?

Joe, Joe - Now you done gone and made dem Evergreeners look good by comparison! My only hope is that you are really an Evergreener trying to perpetuate a false stereotype of those in the real world outside Evergreen. Take your feeble attempt at communication elsewhere.

I'll tell you what. That officer surrounded by a hostile croud demonstrates the excellent training and conditioning that our law enforcement officers recieve. Specifically realizing she was surrounded by nothing more than a bunch of cowards. Unfortunately the world would be a better place today had she choosen to use deadly force.

Hey what are the odds that someone will step up and accept responsibility for their roll in the riot?

"Police said as she struggled to remove the man from the crowd, the band onstage started playing a song called “F___ the Police,” and the audience became increasingly agitated and combative."

Isn't inciting a riot a crime? I think the entire band should serve jailtime for this.
