Shitshow U.: Civil, Well-Reasoned Discourse at SUNY-Binghamton
[CollegeFix] Cellphone footage obtained by Young America’s Foundation shows that a joint tabling event by the College Republicans and Turning Point USA chapters at the State University of New York at Binghamton descended into chaos Thursday afternoon as a swarm of students surrounded their conservative peers.

The video shows some members of the mob vandalize and trash the conservatives’ displays, curse at them, and get inches away from their faces as they yelled aggressively and demand they pack up and leave and never table on campus again.

When police officers who were called in are shown keeping the crowd at bay, the protesters expressed fury, and eventually start chanting: “No justice, no peace, no racist police.”

“Fuck Trump” and “suck my dick” were also yelled by some of the aggressors to, in their own words, engage in their First Amendment rights too, and later they chanted “pack it up, pack it up.”

Materials laid out on the tables that may have triggered the student aggressors included a Gadsden “don’t tread on me” flag, USA buttons, “Capitalism Cures” stickers, red, white and blue “Big Government Sucks” posters and yellow “taxation is theft” posters, among other materials.

#1 The thing to remember, student activists are a small minority.
    Most just there to get their degrees (and to get some nooky). Some even understand that to get a degree, you have to study. Some, even like studying!

However, erstwhile student activists became university administrators.

#2 So why didn't the conservatives hit them ? There's got to be muscle in the Republican ranks. Why not use it ?

#3 ^"erstwhile student activists became university administrators" - it's their university, not yours.

#4 Time to remove taxpayer support from departments who's degrees don't provide a sufficient uplift to wages.

We're polite and we do believe in free speech, even if we don't like them. To quote Voltaire, "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

(This apply to Herb as well.)

#6 Probably a better strategy to let these illiterate little thug princesses show the world how stupid and deranged they are.

The truly appalling aspect is that these cretins were admitted to a major state university.

Then again, Yale admitted the retarded screamer, Jeralyn Luther-- look for her unhinged screaming fit, with the usual ghetto-speak and f-bombs, against her Yale house-master Prof. Christafakis.
