730pm
attended by Catchofheday, taped this outrageous event
this event was hosted by the Campus Republicans but was
stonewalled by the dominant lesbian population at Smith..so badly
that the staff could not contol the students from coming in and out the windows..
screaming so loud the staff were worried the room would be destroyed..and asked the speaker to cease speaking..students standing on tables tittleating each other in sexual intonations and gestures mocking the speaker in rude outbursts and reactions.. refusing to be quiet for the speaker to speak..banging on pots and pans..
and tugging at the ones trying to be ushered out..been there seen that ..remember larry cirignano?? the fall gay hoax in Worcester??? case??? this tape is a legal mess about to happen..but will not be released immediately, as the mess is so bad that to release it requires much jurisprudence...IT WAS A HUGE DEFIANT ATTACK ON FREE SPEECH AND THE RIGHT TO ASSEMBLE.. which is what Catch of the Day is about isn't it..where were the local police??? the noise had to have been heard in downtown at 830 pm as it sounded like an out of body experience in hell to me.although this crowd was definitely dressed in straight off the shelf dude stuff...God Save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
