First Amendment alert.

Hate speech is not covered by the First Amendment, right? I'm not against taking up a collection for the bikers in this story for a legal defense fund. Shouting those kind of insults at a funeral constitute "hate speech" in the stream, a violent response should be expected.

Hey, University of Washington, honor your Hero!

Can't believe the pomposity of the students in this article. You do know that George Washington, the father of our country, was a war hero, right? I mean if he didn't pull the trigger himself, he was the commander. Should we honor him? Beyond comprehension.
As I look at the past through rose colored glasses, I don't remember being that large of an idiot in college. I wasn't part of the Student Senate, maybe that has something to do with it.
I did try to stop a group of people from burning a U.S. flag, with no success.
Well at least is looks like the Student Senate got it right in the end. My reading of the article says the University of Washington will honor all 4 of its Medal of Honor winners. Four? That's pretty impressive. I wonder if any university has more?
