Absolutely awesome. Support radical free expression on campus! And everywhere else, for that matter!

Nothing like a little civil disobedience to rattle The Man!

I was sitting near where this happened and I didn't see the guy. He climbed the wall that fast. The banner really is a great thing to see around campus. It shows us that people still have the courage to protest.

If you don't like government go live in a cave - and quit turning this glorious into that glorified junior college (aka CU). Support the government - without them you would not have the right to free speech and where would all you radicals be then. Anarchy does not work and never will. Human greed is the strongest will of all.

This is not true, according to the Declaration of Independence. Just in case you forgot what that is, I'll post a few key sentences.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
As you can see, our rights are UNALIENABLE. Please don't spread lies about where our rights come from.

"No Capes!"
They tend to get stuck in things, too bad he didn't get away.

I love it. Wish we could bring some "cool" tags to CSU rather than "weird"

By the way, there are two n's in "fuvernment".

When will would-be superheroes learn the dangers of wearing a cape?! (See "The Incredibles" for a quick primer on cape-related disasters).

Hoo! Great story. Greater comments! I can see some of those guys now, all lookin' at their screen and proudly proclaimin' "if you don't like amurrica then you can just geeeet out!" That line is awesome and a great conclusion to any problems currently undergoing your country that you feel should not be brought up!
