You don't have to prove to anyone that you have a big vocabulary. If you work so hard to write a comment to this article, just go write for the New U. Seriously man, I bet you proofread that shit like 12 times. Come on. @Ryan, that was the biggest bunch of big words/run on bullshit sentences I’ve ever seen.

You guys are preaching about tolerance and making your voice heard, and that's great, good for you. But when someone else speaks their mind and it's not in line with what you think, you don't criticize them or tell them to shut up. By telling her to silence herself you're doing the exact thing that you're fighting against. Whatever happened to freedom of speech? By lashing out at some poor girl, you are victimizing her and demonizing yourselves. Anyone who doesn't agree with her article has that right. It's an opinion! But do it in a constructive manner and write up a response like a normal person instead of being whiners. If she got her opinion in the paper, then all of you can do the same. But don't abuse some poor girl over her thoughts. Be civil, please. Guys come on, it’s an opinion!

Thu, 11 Mar 2010 09:17:35 +0000 http://www.newuniversity.org/2010/02/opinion/black-history-month/#comment-2870 One day we will see a Hannah Guthry in a medium close-up shot on our LCD flatscreens. She will be a champion of the right- articulate, rehearsed, unflinching, and tenacious. She'll be dressed professionally but still with a sense of being casual enough to have a slice of pizza with. See, that way the young kids like her too. Her new book will be flying off shelves. Some will be praising it, some burning it. Either way the checks will get signed and tickets to the couches of various morning shows will be booked. Just as with this article a big fuss will be made but at the end of the day none of the words will matter because at the end of the day no one's opinion is changing. We'll chase ours and each others' tails until we get caught up in the next Hannah Guthry or at least until another book is released and we all run to our closets to see if the old righteous dress still fits. It'll work like gangbusters. Crown publishers will be salivating. We're an extremely marketable demographic like that and no doubt Hannah Guthry 10.0 will pull at all strings until finding that perfect note to prick up our ears. And god bless her. This is what this whole game is about. If anything, lets give the Hannah Guthry credit for living her values. This Hannah Guthry speaks in so many words of achievement based on merit and she proves her dedication to this ideal in her life. Toasts to her for her achievement these last couple of weeks. Here we have a twinkling star of a writer who reminded us to stay on our toes, because whoever you are and whatever you believe in, you are reminded that for every one of you there is another who thinks you're just plain stupid. They'll quote you, dissect your beliefs, one-up you on diction, and do numerous other funny things like break your arguments down into cute numbered sections being the trained and efficient test takers that they are. The Hannah Guthry has helped motivate with her so-so written opinion piece some of the best student held actions I have seen in my four years at this otherwise painfully quiet University. I let my camera run until it's batteries died as students of BSU, MSU, WSA, and various other allies of our cause stood together IN PART because one of the many Hannah Guthry's reminded them of the reason these groups exist and why their work work is so important. Kudos be to Hannah Guthry who asked if we really need a Black History month and strangely answered her very own question by demonstrating that obviously we do. So then, the least we can do is give her more attention. We should highlight her achievements. She is an icon and I want to make silk-screen reproduction paintings of her. So years from now Hannah Guthry 10.0 will be bobbling in our television sets and causing a commotion because damn 'nab it, she just can't take that damn preferential treatment of minorities. The books will be published and the checks will be signed, because if she's anything like Hannah Guthry circa 2010 she wouldn't have a choice the poor thing but to bask in just how subversive she is, always with the courage to put her name on her opinions. Still, that doesn't mean I have to spell it right. One day we will see a Hannah Guthry in a medium close-up shot on our LCD flatscreens.
