"College orientation" for the spring semester:

Ask yourself who is teaching our college kids, and what are their values? I stumbled on an article l printed out in 2013, "20 of the most obnoxious quotes from college professors." Here are just a few:

  • "Kill the rich people. Break up their cars. Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents." – Bill Ayers, U. of Illinois -Chicago

  • "Activists have stayed the course, devoted to overthrowing everything hateful about this government and corporate structure that we live in; capitalism itself, herself, himself . . ." – Bernardine Dohrn, Northwestern University

  • I live to harass white folks." – Derrick Bell, Harvard

  • "We need to think about who the enemy is: the United States and everyone who supports it." – Haunani-Kay Trask, U. of Hawaii-Manoa

  • "Thanksgiving is the day when the dominant white culture celebrates the beginning of a genocide that was blessed by men we hold up as our heroic founding fathers, men who had values and views virtually identical to the Nazis." – Robert Jensen, U. of Texas, Austin

  • "I know they say that Stalin killed 20, 30, 40 million people. It's (BS). I have yet to find one crime that Stalin committed." (How hard is he looking)? – Grover Furr, Montclair State University

  • "The vast majority of 9/11 observances cannot be seen as politically neutral. Implicit is that the motives of the 9/11 attackers had nothing to do with genuine grievances regarding American imperialism." – David Green, University of Illinois

  • "The only true heroes are those who find ways that help defeat the U.S. military. I personally would like to see a million Mogadishus." – Nicholas DeGenova, Columbia University

  • "On September 11, 2001, 19 Arab hijackers too demonstrated their willingness to die – and to kill – for their dream. They died so that their people might live, free and in dignity." – Shahid Alam, Northeastern University (Killing 3,000 people is dignity)?

  • Liberalism is 1) ….idiots who think the police can keep us safe from criminals without ever accidentally hurting thugs who are resisting them and think the CIA can get information out of terrorists by giving them lattes, fluffing their pillows, and hugging them until they give in.

  • "There are some circumstances where the baby is severely disabled and where the parents think that it's better that child should not live, when killing the newborn baby is not wrong . . not like killing the chimpanzee would be." – Peter Singer, professor of ethics, Princeton University

  • "The blood is on the hands of the NRA. Next time let it be your sons and daughters. May God d@#m you." – David Guthrie, University of Kansas (It takes a gun to stop a gun)!

  • "I want Wayne LaPierre's head on a stick." – Erik Loomis, U. of Rhode Island

  • "It's about time we have an intifada in this country . . You haven't seen radicalism yet." – Hatem Bazian, U. of California Berkeley (appropriate first name)

  • "The people of the third world need our sympathy, and more than that, they need our help. We can provide them with a margin of survival by internal disruption in the United States." – Noam Chomsky, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
