Associated Press – May 16, 2008:

A Brown University student says she’s been suspended for hitting a New York Times columnist with a pie during an Earth Day speech.

Margaree Little was one of two people who heaved green whipped pies at Thomas Friedman because they disagree with his brand of environmentalism.

Little has refused to identify the second person involved.

    Despite the suspension from school, I don’t think you can ever really go wrong, hitting a journalist in the face with a pie.

    Or a “Captain of Industry”…Bill got his…

    I wonder if they check you for cream @ WWDC…

    Oh, never mind… just day dreaming…

    Let her serve both sentences, then. Suspend her for two semesters.

    Stupid logic.

    I hope if you ever get a traffic ticket that you’re punished not only for yourself but for each passenger in your car.

  6. BigCarbonFoot says:

    Good. Friedman thinks it’s OK to discourage people from driving.

  7. MikeN says:

    Well John Dvorak supports this sort of thing, at least if it’s against ‘power’. He’s posted about it before.

    This is pretty typical of the left to try and shut down speech they disagree with. Nice to see some colleges trying to maintain free speech and open dialogue.

    MMMmmm pie.

    “Stupid logic.”

    Seems logical to me to punish someone twice for two wrongdoings. First, punish her for the pie throwing. Second, punish her again for refusing to tell who else was involved.

    Second, punish her again for refusing to tell who else was involved.

    I’d give her a medal for not ratting out her friends. She’s a rare tough broad. I wonder if she’s married?

    Jeez, whatever Said said, he’s getting a lot of deletions!! Said, whatever you said, you shouldn’t have said it.

    Where did I say the car crashed?

    So do murderers get two convictions if they refuse to rat out their partner who assisted?

  14. joaoPT says:

    And do they kill’em twice too?

  15. The Warden says:

    That’s what libtards do. And this was one libtard throwing a pie at another liberal.

    Always easier for liberals to throw things and engage in demogaugery than to debate on facts.

    It’s why Al “the whore” Gore will not debate anyone about Global Warming. Mostly because he has terrible aim in throwing pies!

    #18–Warden==you sound like an “appeaser” to me.

    #14, Mustard,

    well said!
