"We must take a stand against those who wish to silence progressive voices." Really? Name one invited speaker at DePaul campus in the past 5 years who was a conservative. Want to make it 10?

Only a politically correct control freak organization like ASU would consider criticizing and protesting Churchill for his comments as silencing him. To them, no one should every be allowed to challenge their beliefs. Their attitude is that free speech is only for everyone who agrees with them. Otherwise, say that you're so offended that you demand even professors be banned from campus (like "Stupids for Just-Us in Palestine" and "United Morons Moving without a Head", and other Muslim terrorist groups have succeed in getting with the DePaulling Dean and Presidunce.)

Why don't you ask Ward Churchill himself why he demanded that the event be closed to the public, and that students aren't allowed to record it? Why don't you have him tell us students how much he got paid with our money?

Ward Churchill as a spokesperson on human rights for people of color? Is that why he talks about his fondness for having Madeline Allbright and Colin Powell murdered? Notice how silent he is on human rights atrocities and gennocides in everywhere else in the world that's Non-North American? Take for instance, Sudan (forced slavery by Muslim ruling class), or Saudi Arabia and Taliban Era Afganistan. Think it has something to do that he won't say anything to offend Right-wing Muslims? Not "right wing" as in "pro George Bush" -- right wing as in they're the ruling class in their respective countries and they suppress all dissent through torture, rape and murder. But not a peep out of Churchill on that. Makes you think where he gets more of his funding, doesn't it?

I may not share the beliefs of the College Republicans, but I know they have the courage to publicly debate the merits of free speech with any one from ASU, the DePaul Administration, the Muslim Groups, and Ward Churchill himself. Too bad when you even mention the word "debate" to these lefist tyrannists that they run to the nearest DePaul administrator and say they need to be protected from opposing (and we can say "smarter") viewpoints. See how much they've become just like the far right!

Ward Churchill can't speak legitimately about human rights... He's a human wrong.

ASU people and other students need to join the College Republicans and stand up for free speech for EVERYONE, not just the people who's politics you personally like. Otherwise, you have double standards... which really means you have no standards.
