    Anyone have a battery operated power drill.

    We can do a sneak attack at night and leave the boat riddled with holes, just below the water line... :lol:

    For what it's worth, I'm a card-carrying lefty, but even I had to verbally abuse someone who had that up in their room the last semester i was at university.

    Displaying that stuff in public is disgusting. If you want to paint up your living room to look like this that is your right, but it is my right not to see that stuff in public.

    nice!

    just got back from 4 years in the Czech Republic... and they can tell you about the glory of the Soviet hammer and sickle...

    just really enjoy seeing teens sporting communist symbols without knowing what evil they've been put to in the past

    If it lets me I'll rep point you for doing the right thing. I never quite figured out how the kids in the Che Guevara shirts, for example, didn't understand that they were celebrating a mass murderer. I know a few genuine whackjob right-wingers and rednecks but I haven't seen any of them yet wandering around with a picture of Adolph Eichmann on their clothing. I'll put it down to the cluelessness of youth because no adult with any sort of conscience would ever do such a thing, which in turn should lead to a general questioning of the soundness of character of far too many university professors and political "activists".

    take the kids out of the mall and throw them into a communist regime in Latin America and let's see how long it takes them to enjoy the "evils of Capitalism"

    I think what we're seeing here is a really ham fisted way of giving the finger to the folks at city hall.

    :lol: Maybe if Eichmann had had a Guevara t-shirt, the Mossad wouldn't have had such easy time plucking him out of Argentina! I'm not sure where you were going with your questioning of university professors, but we have a code of professional conduct that clearly forbids a lot of the sorts of things that I think you may be critical of (such as bringing one's own 'politics' into the lecture hall).

    Is that the one they had to replaced? You know, the one that got run aground when the crew was screwing instead of steering?

    tell that to the bleed-over professors at Western Ontario's English Department from the Women's Studies programme... my having that Y-chromosome sure pissed off some of the professors and their somewhat slanted interpretation of classic English Lit

    If they're violating their code of conduct, then YOU should tell someone. You'll find the majority of us are strongly behind the importance of ojectivity in the classroom.

    I did my Master's thesis (at Western, btw) on Female Labour Force Participation and one of my peer reviewers (a ruralist-feminist sociologist from Utah, of all places) said she liked my research methods and writing style but was concerned that I had chosen a research topic that really should have been undertaken by a female. She basically questioned my objectivity, on the grounds of sexism, solely based on my gender, in front of a room full of people while I was defending to graduate. So, I hear your concerns and hope you'll voice them.
