Maoists Disrupt Prof. Yoo’s Class
From Nuts & Boalts via Beetle:
I’ll definitely have more to say about this later, but this morning’s disruption of Con Law by those who can’t live without a cause to fight for really pissed me off (as many noticed). If you weren’t around this morning, about half a dozen protesters stormed into Booth where Prof. Yoo was in the middle of asking me a question to protest his torture memos (yeah I know, some people still live in the past). I’m glad my classmates were for the most part in agreement that the means was not appropriate.
I’m 99% sure that this was initiated by the World Can’t Wait folks. In one of our previous posts, it was revealed that this organization is a front group for the Revolutionary Communist Party, a Maoist front group.
Why do I think it was them? On Monday, they were passing out fliers featuring John Yoo, “War Criminal!!” On the schedule of events, “Demonstration against John Yoo, 10/25/05 @ 11:00 am.” Maybe with the early warning, the class could have moved somewhere else for the day, leaving the protestors to storm an empty room.
Yeah it was the same people who were by the fountain the day before. Thanks for this tidbit.

And as to the last part, the class is an 8:45 class. But fuck them, why should we move our class?

Sometimes, it’s okay to let the terrorists win if you get to laugh at them afterwards.

I would prefer to see an outbreak of old-fashioned fisticuffs. And a few bloody Maoist noses.
