This should be interesting. American Universities are hotbeds for the lib/left crowd - they also have significant muslim participation.
The lib/left is many things - cowardly and gutless is one of them when confronted with an actual physical threat/danger, as opposed to their fantasy "enemies".
The lib/left and islamists are linked in general common cause - but they are oil & water! - and they do despise each other! The lib/left is terrified by them - and the islamists see the lib/left as just another Western manifestation (and a perverted and weak one at that).
I mentioned months ago that I participated in security briefings reference potential terrorist targets here in NYC. With the criterior used, Colleges and Universities were at the top of the list as soft high profile potential targets. Extending potection to them was virtually impossible without their participation and cooperation.
Its all just wait and see at this point.

Hondo you see that all the time when they do demostrations against WTO. They wear masks and use slingshots but when caught they cry like little girls. They generally like to hide in a fantasy realm of their own while ignoring reality. Once it does bite them in the ass they cry why didn't anyone warn us. Well, they had been they choose to ignore.

hondo: I doubt if the spldodidopes leveled 300 of these Federally funded cesspools of anti-American brainwashing camp puss es, it would have much of an impact. If it weren't for GWB and people like us picking on them, this wouldn't be happening. Denial is deeper than then da Nile.

The onslaught against the victims from the LIB media has alraedy started from Expose the left: On Fox News with a panel of experts. One of them, Mercedes Colwin, said that the bail for the perpetrator should be reduced because he was “only 23″, he “isnÂ’t a flight risk” (how she determined this, I donÂ’t know), and because the TarheelÂ’s publication of the Mohammed cartoon “incited” him. She then went on to argue that the printing of the cartoon was not protected by the First Amendment, because it (paraphrasing) “actively incites violence.” She said the University was responsible for the attack because they allowed the cartoons to be printed.

As I've said before, UNC is the most liberal place in all of NC. This should be good. All the old hippies that still live there, and all the naive kids will be protesting the protesters I guess.
