    As tame a thread title as I could come up with for this one.

    I thought College Republicans did this at every campus. Is this just getting attention because it's Berkley?

    I don't know what is funnier, the fact that they are doing this at Berkley or the fact that liberals are getting so upset oover it. These guys have gotten death threats over this. Is it really that big a deal?

    Racist is as racist does.

    Shouldn't racism be just another free speech issue at Berkley?

    I'm OK with the racists being allowed to alert everyone to the fact that they are racists.

    I think they are taking an extremely simplistic view of the issue, but I also think it's a moderately clever and perfectly legitimate protest.

    Clarence Thomas doesn't know why he just got the urge for a cupcake.

    What's racist about it?

    Because affirmative action isn't a simplistic reaction to past discrimination.
