This is an unbelievable example of how the immigration debate has brought out the absolute worst in people. Recently there was a horrid fatal car crash outside of my hometown of Greeley, CO that resulted in the women driving losing her two brothers and 3 month old baby in the crash. State Rep.

After reading an opinion piece here at Colorado State University I find myself de-lurking to share the outrage. It wasn't a surprise that coward conservative Ryan Chapman already has graced these pages for his tear gas Cindy Sheehan and the protesters piece. Amazingly, our college newspaper The Collegian has signed on Ryan for yet another semester of hate-filled operation yellow elephant ramblings.

The mean-spirited Chapman kicked off the new semester with a real slanderous foot-stomping of a piece that even Horowitz could be proud of calling for David Letterman to be tried for treason. He starts off in a huff over O'Reilly's treatment on Letterman, which he claims led to a startling realization, Read More
