Socialist Students at U. Minnesota to Protest Amy Coney Barrett Appearance
“We have to use our voice and do what we do best to make sure that not only the University, but Barrett knows that that kind of forces are not welcome here”
Leftist students constanly demand ‘free’ college provided by the taxpayers but won’t allow half of the country on campus.

U. Minnesota socialists to protest coming Amy Coney Barrett appearance
The University of Minnesota Students for a Democratic Society and Young Democratic Socialists of America plan to protest an appearance by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett next month.
Barrett will be giving the Law School’s annual Robert A. Stein Lecture on October 16, according to The Minnesota Daily.
A SCOTUS justice has given the lecture every year for the last decade.
The SDS and YDSA are angry at Barrett’s majority opinions in Dobbs v. Jackson (which overturned Roe v. Wade) and the two cases which ended affirmative action in college admissions.
“We have to use our voice and do what we do best to make sure that not only the University, but Barrett knows that that kind of forces are not welcome here,” the SDS’s Gillian Rath said.
Rath also claimed UMN officials “don’t care about our thoughts and feelings and they really don’t care about our rights.”
Rath, who’s quite involved in the abortion rights movement, participated in a protest earlier this year which demanded the establishment of more abortion clinics across the (progressive) state. She also allegedly was “harassed” by the FBI for her actions against “predatory” crisis pregnancy centers.
The UMN SDS Instagram page features numerous anti-Barrett flyers (pictured), including images of the justice with “Xs” over her eyes, which can signify “death.”
One flyer reads “Keep Amy Coney Barrett off campus! Hate has no place on our campus. Inviting ACB to our school contradicts the University’s supposed values.”

Can I write your October 17th followup story for you?

She should wait until the last minute, then tell them she’s not going because of the threats she’s received. Screw their law school.
The SDS are outright communists and have been so since the days of the Vietnam War.
