I'd challenge this notion too. The Republicans put up signs supporting conceal/carry (the measure in the SA basically called on President Skorton to change Cornell's policy should the laws of NY State and Tompkins County change). Within minutes of placing the signs on the Arts Quad, people came by and tore them down, shouting disgusting comments at CR members in the process.

But suggesting that concealed weapons are necessary on a rural college campus with a history of armed takeovers is the
definition of ridiculous!
Out of curiosity, did the College Republicans have approval to place an installation of that sort on the Arts Quad?

These acts are drastically different from the way the Cornell Republicans respond to similar events on the opposite end of the political spectrum.

I will freely agree that the acts perpetuated from some far-left groups aren't necessarily the most civil. And I don't agree with most of their actions. But to suggest these acts indicate that broad swaths of the campus are close-minded liberals who will scream at you if you are a Republican is disingenuous.
