Seems as though UMB is evacuated for threats more than most schools in the area. Is anyone ever persecuted for these? Do they believe it to be the same person?

During my time at UMB i only experienced random fire drills, never bomb threats.

It'll be kinda funny if/when they catch the culprit.

One person was seen handcuffed and escorted off campus.

While I was there a kid (idiot) whom the Chancellor help get elected to the student body (mainly because he's pro Black) was arrested for distribution. There was a large "Socialisim for Black liberation" movement on campus within the American American student body.

Not sure if any of them were aware of European History.

Oh, and you better check your laundry room - there might be a black agitator in your washing machine!

So the entire school is covered with this crap. http://umass-socialism.blogspot.com/2011/11/blog-post_29.html?m=1. And the chancellor is inviting people to speak on the subject, but I'm the crazy one.

Grab a mirror, yawn...

Because one measly blog and an invitation to dialogue at a university MUST BE A CONSPIRACY!!!!!!

Rather than, you know, an opportunity to learn something at a university (GASP!).

Clutch 'em too hard and you can crush 'em.

... this happened at BU on a distressingly frequent basis (according to a friend and a cousin who went there). I never heard if the cuprit(s) were caught.
