14. Students at UCDavis
...are not only brave, they are brilliant and touching.

Here is the link to demand that Katehi resign:

http://chancellor.uc davis.edu/ contact.ph p

That url will take you to a page with her internal email.

But be polite in order to honor the non-violent spirit of the UCDavis students both during the attack and since the attack.

15. how many CA universities support RW radio as it attacks OWS and pressures police action, excuses
the brutality.

got a slow connection but i'll bet many major CA unis endorse limbaugh in their communities, bring in ad money, to those stations.

unis need to divest from RW radio.

Here's what Limbaugh said in first hour last wed morning.... how many cops listen to this shit.....
praphrasing Limbaugh (whose parent stations WABC is at Penn Station, NYC)
xxxxxx'
Bloomberg liberated Zuccotti Park.......
lousy hippies thieves rapists purse snatchers
......sexually transmitted diseases, murder, filth, gunfire, scabies......
The protestors are so used to urinating and defecating in the streets so when they go back home to their parents they might need to be housebroken again. They’re going to have to put some newspaper down.......
endless parade of human debris,
whining little wimps
 .....looking for free meals free drugs free sex.....
it was never big, never any public support, not the backbone of America
, one big ad for the dem party.
'xxxxxx
