I thought the NegaTigers were supposed to leave their robes at home this week.

This thing could get nasty with people drinking, I wouldn't be suprised if one of these klansmen have a weapon. They better have an A$$load of police there.

What is a shame is that Ole Miss is allowing this. I know the KKK has the right to assemble and protest, but lets imagine the ramifications if Ole Miss was to say no. The KKK would probably sue the school, but with how much a school the size of Ole Miss, I'm sure they would not mind paying a fine. I mean, what else could they do? Close the school down? No. And lets say they lose their white supremacist fanbase. Who Cares? I am sure everyone in America (including Ole Miss fans) would like to see someone to stand up to this.

If Ole Miss did say no, they could have the Klansmen arrested if they protest without permission. I have been to D.C. during unscheduled protest. They can arrest people for disturbing the peace and meeting on private grounds (kind of like trespassing but not really since it is an open campus). They could also see this as providing clear and present danger because some of us can realistically see something happening like a fight.

I would rather see Ole Miss say no to a hate group then say "we love the First Amendment THIS much"
