Article Excerpt:
According to CM reader Janelle, "California college students would love to have some sort of protest so crazy it would invoke the wrath of the Governator, or even better--the federal government. Similar to the Kent State shootings in 1970, but perhaps without the deaths. I know quite a few people who admire the protests of the 60's and 70's and sort of look upon such racous [sic] radicalism with admiration and would see a Kent State- like scenario as a badge of courage."  Quad blogger Seth Simmons adds, "I think a bunch of the leftist professors on campuses across the nation are upset that students today are generally far more conservative than their 1960-70s counterparts. And even the lefty students who protest are considerably less radical (in action, not belief) today."  An interesting thought, one I thought I might look a little into.
