If these people really want segregation than go to a HBCU instead of Northwestern

Why doesn't the Athletic Director just declare that location a "safe zone"? Then the protesters would have to leave. Isn't that their rules?

It's not racist to speak out against stupidity, but we'll be called racist anyway.

1 This is a long, long way from anything remotely resembling the environment that brought on Kent State. There are a handful of students on a handful of campuses, yelling some slogans and acting the fool. Read some history about what was going on in the US in the sixties and early seventies.

2 The Kent State shootings were the result of National Guardsmen untrained in crowd control tactics, and issued live ammo. There are ways to handle crowds, even violent crowds, without laying down a base of indiscriminant fire. Unless the powers that be are stupid enough to throw those SOP's out the window, another Kent State won't happen.

I'm laughing at students at universities and colleges like Columbia, Northwestern, and Yale complaining about "privilege".

Honestly, I don't even view this that much along racial lines. The true racially-tinged problems I encounter on a daily basis are things like crime near my neighborhood or just general rudeness in dealing with a certain "female" type in this city.

I honestly don't hold the black community responsible for this ridiculous shite, I lay it at the feet of academia.
