Bill "Bomber" Ayers, onetime domestic terrorist and friend of President-elect Barack Obama, writes that the University of Nebraska "will surely suffer" from the school's decision to cancel his speaking engagement in Lincoln that was originally scheduled for this weekend.An ominous message, but Ayers wasn't talking about explosives.
From the Omaha World-Herald:
"I wouldn't force myself on the college, of course, but I felt that canceling would send a terrible message to students, bring shame to the university, and be another step down the slippery slope of giving up on the precious ideal of a free university in a free society," Ayers writes in his first detailed statement on the controversy, published today.
Ayers, an anti-war radical in the 1960s, wrote that he told UNL administrators the day before they canceled his speech that complaints over his appearance were "a bit of a tempest in a teapot" that surely would pass. And he indicated to them that he would have felt safe speaking at UNL.
Boo hoo.
Ayers never abandoned his hard-left beliefs, he only modified his tactics. The unrepentant terrorist figured out that it was easier to subvert society from within academia rather than bombing buildings.

I think Billy is doing a bit of projection here. The University isn't going anywhere.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a good thing to keep an eye on Billy's speaking schedule and protest any public university inviting him. It hurts him in the pocket book.
Ouch-o Billy-o
ReplyDeleteProjection-ism from Billy usually takes the form of mass murder. How many did he calculate would need to be killed if they refused re-education?
