There's a saying here in America; as California goes, so goes the United States.
Many social experiments are tried here first. Among the more noteable there have been the introduction of Ebonics, outcome based education, decriminalization of marijuanna, higher speed limits, open borders, etc.
In California there are over one hundred languages spoken. It's as color blind a society as there ever will be.
People from all over the world flock to our colleges, and as usual, the loudest most uncivil group are the Muslim Stundent Union. They disrupt most Jewish student gatherings with tactics such as displaying cardboard cutouts of AK 47's and shouting down speakers. A letter from the student paper:
"Irvine
As for the report of the local director of the Council on American Islamic Relations, that his office “has received many calls from students and parents at UCI expressing extreme concern about the safety and privacy of their students on campus,” consider that on its Web site, CAIR has literally been pleading with Muslims to report more instances of abuse and discrimination so that they can match the records of other minority groups, which helps them better play the victimhood game.
I was at the event at UCI in 2006 sponsored by the Campus Republican Club where hundreds of noisy Muslim students, some waving cardboard AK-47 cutouts, protested and disrupted a program about the “offensive (to them) Danish cartoons.”
When UCI’s Muslim students stop acting like their Hamas and Hezbollah brethren perhaps we will feel less inclined to view them with distrust, suspicion and hostility.
They bring this upon themselves.

FUCKING RIDICULOUS! I attribute this to a failure of Islam because they are breeding generations of hate filled uncivil people and exporting a frothing at the mouth ideology all over the world. If Islam is a religion of peace this is an example of its failure.

And, in the name of free speech we allow the vilest filth and war talk to be spewed on campus. A campus funded by American tax payer monies.Logic, Anti-Semitism On Display In UC Irvine Newspaper. Except For the Logic Part.
Sulaiman Arain is a fifth year UC Irvine engineering student, and he just had a letter published in UCI's student newspaper. In this letter, he attempts to do his best impression of what political argumentation looks like:
“The state of Israel will be wiped off the face of the earth.” Is this statement anti-Semitic? Let’s forget for a moment that the term itself has been grossly redefined by Zionists to mean “anti-Jewish” - does the statement imply that all the Jews living in Israel need to be exterminated? Or even that all Jews must forcibly be ousted from the Holy Land? Of course not. The words used are “The state of Israel,” not “Jews” or even “Israelis.” The statement is a less-than-diplomatic way of saying that the state of Israel will cease to exist on the map. That’s all.
Now, to the extent that the Muslim students he's defending were wearing pro-Intifada shirts (read: not peaceful), this is a little bit dishonest. Also a reason it's dishonest: the UCI Muslim Student Union regularly brings in speakers who celebrate Hezbollah's violent attacks on Israelis. One more reason it's dishonest: having Israel get overrun by the so-called refugees - as he clarifies later, all 10 million of them, up to the fifth generation - would result in an anti-Jewish bloodbath. We're talking about the darkest pits of global anti-Semitism, where resentment and hate have served as the basis for what passes for ideology for half a century.
But let's pretend he's telling the truth, and he's only advocating wiping out the Jewish state - and not any particular Jew (because that's exactly how it would happen). It's still anti-Semitic.
(1) When placed in the context of leftist human rights activism, it often coexists with the claim that just about every ethnic group, no matter how trivially distinct from other ethnic groups, deserves their own state. Except the Jews, who don't. So Palestinians, despite being very close to Egyptians or Jordanians, deserve their own state. But Jews, who have been hounded throughout history, do not. That, it seems to us, is anti-Semitic.
(2) Let's assume that all the lies about Israel are true: it is a genocide-implementing, apartheid-enforcing state. By these measures, it's at worst as bad as Serbia or South Africa. And yet - and this is crucial - no one has ever advocated wiping those states off the map. Both the policy of destroying Israel and the viciousness with which it is advocated point to something particularly illogical and ugly - in a word, anti-Semitism.
Oh, and one more thing:
What must happen for the state of Israel to cease to exist on the map is really quite simple: The right of return must be granted to the Palestinians, a people who were forcibly removed from their land, a people whose properties were seized at gunpoint so that the state of Israel... To rightfully allow all 9.5 million Palestinian-Arab refugees and their descendants to return home would mean that Israel, with a population of roughly 6.2 million Jews, would cease to exist as a Jewish state, giving way to a new system under which people can form a government that guarantees basic human rights and dignity to all humans.
The thing about Palestinians guaranteeing basic human rights to Jews as they're overrunning them with 10 million of the most anti-Semitic people on the planet - stupid. The thing about the right of returning meaning the destruction of Israel - unusually honest. Or at least more honest than the Saudis and the Europeans.
FUCKING RIDICULOUS! I attribute this to a failure of Islam because they are breeding generations of hate filled uncivil people and exporting a frothing at the mouth ideology all over the world. If Islam is a religion of peace this is an example of its failure.
