Six people involved with the MSU Young Americans for Freedom’s speaking engagement Friday were chased by two suspects wielding sticks, bats and canes following the event, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said. The two suspects, who were protesters at the event featuring the chairman of the British National Party, followed the six people from the engagement to the Wharton Center’s parking ramp, beating their weapons on the ground and yelling threatening comments, McGlothian-Taylor said. A female employee saw the incident and tried to separate the two groups, McGlothian-Taylor said. There was no physical confrontation between those involved.

I read a Lansing State Journal article titled “Protesters shout down anti-Islam speaker at MSU” (originally published online Saturday) about how protesters once again disrupted a speaker on campus because they don’t like what the speaker has to say.

They speak of freedom of speech, yet apparently have no idea what it really means.

Many liberals and conservatives use Martin Luther King Jr., or MLK, as the epitome of color-blind ideology. In fact, those same conservatives and liberals reference MLK’s “I Have a Dream” speech so much that it is a wonder why he is so revered. In addition, MLK is used by those against affirmative action as a tool to discredit the entire black liberation struggle from the conception of this so-called democratic country. However, using MLK as a mechanism to support racial injustices is not only inaccurate but disrespectful. People need more education on the post-“I Have a Dream” MLK.

Much has been made of the similarities between Iraq and Vietnam, both by anti-war proponents and, more recently, by the Bush administration. At the surface, they are certainly compelling. Both were a thinly veiled attempt at imperialism that ended with the superpower at the mercy of the guerilla; both resulted in bloody chaos once the superpower left.
