The universities would never stand for that.

Those people pay in cash.

A great step would be to eliminate student visas from Arab countries except for religious minorities (including certain Moslem minorities) who use them as a way to apply for asylum.

There is no denigrating of Islam. All there is is the speaking of truth concerning it, repeating what Muslim imams and preachers say, repeating what the Koran and Hadiths say.

When that is spoken, Muslims, politicians, and the politically correct clergy who participate in inter-faith events, squawk about “denigration” of Islam. Islam, it seems, condemns itself.

Put that “brought to you by Islamic Jihad, Al Fatah, Hamas, and Hezbollah” flyer (http://legalinsurrection.com/2014/04/dorm-storming-at-nyu-targets-jewish-students/comment-page-1/#comment-515068) under the doors of all students and see what NYU administrators will do. They will not dither. The new terroristic “minority” in America is to be protected at all costs. Fear is a wonderful incentive.

The media happily attacked Clive Bundy for stating a truth about modern liberalism and its destruction of America’s families (black, white, hispanic). But silence in the face of blatant active anti-Semitism and attacks on Christians, conservatives and Republicans. They’d be falling all over themselves if someone had slid flyers denigrating Islam – that would be a totally different story and outcome.

Today’s academia is like Grima Wormtongue from LOTR.

What needs to happen is a Republican in the White House to order all federal funds withheld from universities that violate student rights.

And then to get the government out of funding and subsidizing higher education altogether, so NYU can run its own show – and on its own dime.

I’m expecting either Media Matters or The Onion to soon have a headline along these lines:

“NYU Eviction Notice Reaction Shows Campus Islamophobia Out of Control.”

“It violated NYU rules, which protect the privacy of students.”

But I think we all know that the single word which best typifies college/university administrations today, that word is….

“coward”.

I wonder if NYU’s reaction would be stronger if flyers containing graphic photographs of aborted fetuses were placed under pro-life students doors?

I happened to catch Greta’s show yesterday. She also did a segment interviewing the female Democrat candidate, DeFranco, who you posted about. Greta also had a panel of folks to discuss her DeFranco interview afterward. So Greta committed a fair amount of time to both stories that I first learned about here at Legal Insurrection.

It made me wonder if you are secretly an executive producer of “On the Record” in your spare time.

It is important to frame this as a privacy issue. NYU apparently prefers to frame this as a violation of some kind of speech code and we all know how speech codes are used to prevent students from being “offended” by rational discussion of genuine issues.

Dear Brave Eviction Notice Messengers,

Where were you on September 10, 2001?

“NYU SJP admits to serving eviction notices, says didn’t target Jews.”

I can just imagine Himmler saying, “Hey, we also killed Slavs, Gypsies, Homosexuals, and other Undesirables. Enough of this talk of targeting Jews!”

Does the administration know what individual students were responsible for this? (Were they even students?)

“DORM STORM TROOPERS”

I blame Obama and Lizzie Borden, er, Warren!
