Pretty thin beer. A torched Obama/Biden campaign sign sounds like something less than a riot or armed insurrection.

Maybe you can suspend all those students tweeting #ThanksMichelleObama about their lunches, too, while you're at it.

Get your head out of today's events in Henderson. A full-fledged riot is not the only indication of racial tension. To many of us, a large group of angry White men yelling racial epithets and small group of Blacks returning verbal fire - which is what happened here - is more than enough to produce discomfort. I am guessing this is just business as usual with your crowd.

Morons like you have a problem with others exercising their First Amendment rights, unless it's supporting Obama or accusing others of racism at the top of their lungs. These students were probably ahead of the curve in terms of expressing their disappointment with where Obama has taken this country.

Not to mention that Ole Miss has about 22,000 students, so even if each of the 400 students reportedly in attendance at the anti-Obama rally was as rabid as you'd like to believe, and not just largely bystanders, it will still be less than 2% of the student body.

If you are trying to convince the OP that Ole Miss is a suitable place to consider for their child, you sure are doing a lousy job of it. Tolerance and civility are not your strong suits. Thanks for the public service message.

No, I think PP is trying to say that the students have right to express themselves. Not big fan of Ole Miss but don't see anything wrong with PP's post.

Then you just don't read carefully.

Anonymous wrote:OP, both of my parents are from MS and I have many cousins/family members/friends who went to Ole Miss. I do not think it has much of an academic reputation outside of the state of MS. I honestly can't imagine someone from DC going there for any academic reasons. There have to be many state schools nearby who offer academics at least as good as Ole Miss. If your daughter wants to end up in the deep south, Ole Miss is just fine but if she wants to live somewhere else, I would not recommend Ole Miss.

Apart from academics, the culture of Ole Miss is VERY specific - party school (like many SEC schools), very southern, very preppy, heavy heavy Greek. I grew up in the South and consider myself very culturally Southern and I didn't even consider Ole Miss because I didn't want to be anywhere the prep/Greek, etc. was so emphasized. My guess is that someone from the DC area would feel like a fish out of water there.
