Princeton Student Beat Unconscious for Conservative Views

The Princeton Tory has a blog on a Junior at Princeton beaten for his conservative views.

These Ivy League thugs and hooligans remind one of the state of civil war after WWI in Germany when gangs of leftist and rightist toughs did battle in the streets. The violence actually may have convinced a young agitator named Adolph Hitler who was flirting with Socialist ideas to switch from Bolshevism to his own brand of "National Socialism," a brand of state-dirigisme not allied to the Trotskyite internationalism that toughs in Munich were advocating. Ben Hecht, an American journalist, actually rented a plane to fly some Bolshevik agitators from Berlin to Munich during a railroad strike---the leftists carried gold bullion, Hecht avers, to sponsor a series of violent uprisings subsequently put down by rightist gangs & a rightist government led by a German Field Marshal was installed instead.

The Princeton agitpreppies are obviously of the same stripe as their Bolshevik forebears. Of course, the Mainstream Media won't pick this up unless it is brought to court, or an intrepid radio talk-show host picks it up. Don't think O'Reilly or Hannity will touch this one.

As usual, any misdeeds on the Republican side or the right are trumpeted and exaggerated or, like Plamegate, made up of whole cloth and then turned into "process crimes."

Like Anthropogenic Global Warming, Leftist Hyperbole is peddled by using polls and spurious "science," without any apparent accountability.

One hopes that the transformation of our universities into propaganda factories will be halted before the academicide left completely destroys its credibility.
UPDATE:
lHilariously, the NYT refutes a story it never ran in the first place. Now if it were the other way around, you can bet a LIBERAL getting cold-cocked would be on the front page and the refutation would be below the fold on page 20-something.

But maybe we can use the Evan Thomas rule vis-a-vis Durham: the narrative was correct in principle, let's just say the facts didn't measure up to the story!

Leftists are starting to act like the Brown Shirts of 1930s Germany. They seem to feel they've got the right, but I don't think they really have what it takes to finish what they seem to be starting.
