Fine people up at Ole Miss. Really welcoming. Hope the National Guard is ready again! Ole Miss Riot of 1962

In the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum in Jackson, there is a letter on display written by an anonymous student and circulated on the Ole Miss campus in October of the year James Meredith enrolled at Ole Miss. The letter called for protests against his enrollment, and ended with “Go to hell, LSU.” I have to say, I laughed out loud when I saw it. Great museum, by the way. I’ve also met James Meredith. Nice guy.

Meredith is a Republican. That’s why he’s rarely mentioned by civil tights activists any more.

They better remember that they will have to come back to Baton Rouge where things can be worse should they go too far.

Well, at least they'll have the police on horseback again:
Mobile mounted police head to Oxford
