As if it weren't bad enough that moonbat students disrupted the Minutemen at Columbia university in New York, now we have moonbats at Michigan State university doing the same, this time against Colorado Senator Tom Tancredo (via Michelle Malkin and Slapstick Politics):

A campus discussion about illegal immigration turned violent Thursday evening, when protesters clashed with the MSU College Republicans and Young Americans for Freedom, who sponsored the event.

Kyle Bristow, chairman of the Young Americans for Freedom, or YAF, said he was kicked and spat upon by some of the protesters when he was outside the MSU College of Law, where the discussion was being held.

"It saddens me that my fellow Spartans would display this type of behavior," he said. "They are racist. It's sad we need police to come to control these radical leftists."

Unable to identify the people who assaulted him, Bristow said he wasn't planning to file a police report.

MSU police were dispatched to the event after an employee of the law college called the department, MSU police Sgt. Brian McDaniel said.

"About 10 to 20 protesters disrupted the event," he said. "We believe they were responsible for pulling the fire alarm."

Protesters said they came to show their opposition to controversial Republican congressman Tom Tancredo, of Colorado, who spoke at the event. Before Tancredo arrived and while the event was being set up, protesters gathered on the fourth floor of the law college with signs that read "Ignorant Racist."

Someone in the building set off a fire alarm twice throughout the evening. After the first alarm was pulled, a few hundred people were evacuated from the building. The person or persons responsible for pulling the alarm could face a misdemeanor or felony charge if caught, McDaniel said.

Randy McPherson, whose sign read "Where's the wall to keep you out?" came to protest when he heard that the congressman would be speaking.

"God works in mysterious ways," said McPherson, a food science and premedical junior, after the second fire alarm was pulled. "(Tancredo) shouldn't be here."

Wrong. You shouldn't be here, my boy. You should be at home getting a good belting from your parents, if you ask me!

David Horowitz sums up the sad state of college campuses today:

Leftist ruffians have ensured that if you are a conservative speaker you will never know what might be coming at you. When I spoke recently at Ball State University, it was only a cream pie. I didn’t even see the person who was charging us, but the chief of campus police and Floyd and the policemen present saw her coming and interposed themselves between us, and were drowned by this cream pie. Not a big deal, but three suits had to go to the dry cleaners, and a police officer was cut apprehending the culprits. Refreshingly, they were arrested and had to post bail.

This is the sad state of our campuses.

Slapstick Politics has a good question featured - whose side are campus police on? And I have a good question to pose as well: if the security is really serious about their job on campus (and the directors about letting them), shouldn't they be checking all attendants at the doors to the auditorium to make sure they're not carrying any weapons, and perhaps to restrict certain [violent] banner presentations? Also, all attendants should be required to bring an ID to be checked as they enter, especially if they want to prove that they're not going to turn to violence.

A good idea for those discriminated against by loonies who invite them to campus as part of nasty trick to attack them afterwards is to file suit against the university managers and any students who attacked. That's what the Minutemen are doing following Columbia's insult.
