Did anyone watch B Ayers being interviewed on GMA this morning. Altho I do not condone any terrorist activity whatsoever, I thought he made some really good points. Here is a link, if you care to see

I can't believe that NUT actually said that it is wrong of the media to demonize him.

Forgive my naivete, but what is so nutty about fighting for peace?? I agree the man is odd and used a very wrong approach back in the day, but he never hurt or killed

fighting violence with violence is redundant, working for a goal of peace is a different thing entirely and not what Ayers was about.

Ayres didn't "fight for peace" he planted bombs for symbolic terrorism.

>>> I agree the man is odd and used a very wrong approach back in the day, but he never hurt or killed anyone.

Unless you count his friend and girlfriend who were killed building an ANTIPERSONNEL bomb. As for the bombs Ayres set personally...it was only luck that prevented innocent people from being killed.

>>> I wish the same was true for some past and present US Presidents.

Presidents act with the legitimate authority of their office.

I never stated it is okay to blow things up with bombs in order to fight for peace. Neither I in any way defended such an activity. Quite the opposite.
