#9 CAIR pressures administrators to consider only their claims as to the effects of so-called "islamophobia" material. They allow no defense of truth. CAIR is not a champion of the inherent dignity of people; they are working to establish sharia degeneracy, and are doing so on a global scale. |

#6 She is deeply offending Islam by both dressing like a whore, and speaking when unsolicited. She should mind her place and not show her whore face in public, or else she offends diversity. |

#5 I encourage each member of our campus community as a start to learn more about the religion of Islam and some of its tenets of peace, hard work, charity and compassion. What, no mention of Islam's respect for women and other religious traditions??? |

#4 The ads, which promoted a showing of the movie on Nov. 13 and a panel discussion afterward, entitled "Radical Islam Wants You Dead," offended many Muslim students on campus. Regardless of its original intent, the language reinforced a negative stereotype, created unnecessary divisiveness and contributed to a generalization that only furthers the misunderstanding of the religion of Islam. The truth is always a valid defense. Curiously, the truth typically offends worst those of whom it is most true about. With clockwork regularity, Muslims around the world only cry out when their own ox is being gored. Islam's lack of protest over atrocities committed against non-Muslims amounts to such a deafening silence whereby their collective inaction has become all that is necessary for evil to succeed. Islam's profound lassitude when confronted with the suffering of others is revealing it as the face of evil in our world. |

#3 Talkmaster Boortz takes Dr. Telles-Irvin down hard. I can only hope Boortz was diligent and emailed his comments to her in addition to posting the fisking of her email on his website. The VP for Student Affairs lives in a make believe world. She needs to hear criticisim from an adult. |

#1 ...they illustrate the importance of balancing freedom of speech with responsibility Like you've ever balanced 'academic freedom' with responsibility. It's all about power. And as long as you have the 'power', you'll continue to abuse it and the student population, of course in the name of the People[tm] or the Children[tm] or the Greater Good[tm]. |
