This guy is beautiful. He is a perfect caricature of all the morally-superior (in their minds) left wing buttheads who make our universities such jokes. The vast majority of 9/11 observances in this country cannot be seen as politically neutral events. Implicit in their nature are the notions that lives lost at the World Trade Center are more valuable than lives lost in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and elsewhere; that the motives of the 9/11 attackers had nothing to do with genuine grievances in the Islamic world regarding American imperialism; and that the U.S. has been justified in the subsequent killing of hundreds of thousands in so-called retaliation. The observance at Saturday’s football game was no different. A moment of silence was followed by a military airplane flyover; in between, Block-I students chanted “USA, USA.” This was neither patriotism nor remembrance in any justifiable sense, but politicization, militarism, propaganda and bellicosity. The University is a public institution that encompasses the political views of all, not just the most (falsely) “patriotic.” Athletic planners should cease such exploitation for political purposes. They might at least consider how most Muslim students, American or otherwise, would respond to this nativist display; or better, Muslims and others that live their lives under the threat of our planes, drones and soldiers. The overwhelmingly white, privileged, Block-I students should be ashamed of their obnoxious, fake-macho, chicken-hawk chant, while poverty-drafted members of their cohort fight and die in illegal and immoral wars for the control of oil. University administrators need to eliminate from all events such “patriotic” observances, which in this country cannot be separated from implicit justifications for state-sponsored killing. David Green, University Academic Professional Gee Dave I can't believe you left Nazi out of your description of the crypto-fascists you were confronted with. I thought all Apple MacButthead models came with a designated key for Nazi.I am almost beyond able to even mock this Doucheasaurus Erectus. His own words beclown him in ways am having difficulty matching. He didn't want to miss a single swipe at the troglodytes who dare celebrate the greatest country to ever sprout and flower among the detritus and refuse littering this craptastic planet . Dave is a sad, angry little fella. Can you just picture his pinched, snooty unhappy face. Davey would love to live in Obama's post-American world, where we finally grovel for the multitude of sins encompassed in that three letter clarion call of evil, USA. F**K you Dave!
