A dozen scantily-clad protestors, wearing little more than protest signs (but dressed within legal limits), urged students to participate in a UC-system-wide student, faculty and staff walkout and one-day strike on Thursday, Sept. 24th. Meanwhile, other protestors handed out literature and talked to passers-by.

"We're here protesting today because the University is stripping of our right to public education," said Sarah Raridon, undergraduate and organizer with the UC Davis Organizing Committee. "If we as students don't make our voices heard, the UC leadership will continue using the state fiscal crisis as an opportunity to impose a 'shock and awe' budget on our university.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Didn't these same UC-Davis idiots attack a military recruiter a few years ago?
