"DEATH TO AMERIKKKA! DIE PETIT_BOURGEOIS PIGS!"
"As a publisher and editor I have included Ward Churchill's writing in a number of books I have produced. His piece "Let's spread the fun around" is included in the award-winning CULTURAL DIVERSITY FIELDBOOK. This witch hunt is a travesty!"
"The rights of free speech and academic inquiry are fundemental to a free and open society. If Prof. Churchill is censured, it will have a chilling effect on all of academia and by extension, on the US itself."

"31"
"ive had enough of this!!!!!! how dare you try and offer a differing opinion to my petition!!!!!!! dissent will be punished those who hate ward churchill, al qaeda, osama and friends will have their messages deleted"
"I heard Dan Rather say on the evening news that Churchill "compared the victims of 9-11 to nazi's." Incredibly slanderous on national TV, when in fact Mr. Churchill said nothing of the kind. Shame on the media, AGAIN!"
"DOWN WITH GREEDY CAPITALISM, but DU welcomes your donations, if you donate $1000 to democratunderground we promise you will live in a happy communist utopia like cuba, north korea or china, please keep those donations coming AND DOWN WITH CAPITALISM!!!!!"

"As an American Indian I may empathize more than others with Professor Churchill's beliefs. But in any case, I support his first amendment right as a tenured professor to speak his informed conviction."
"O'Reilly is distorting the truth about this man, and demonizing him. He has the right to say whatever he wants in America."
"The right of free speech includes the right to express unpopular views."
"stop it!!!! stop offering opposing views!!! your going to make me cry i cant keep line voiding all night ive got to go pick up my welfare cheque"
"It is important that we remember that our ideology is not promoted by allowing views that we don't agree with to be voiced. To silence student dissent is to remain free. Criticism of Ward can and must be severely dealt with. Long live free-speech!"
"For god's sakes, the prof. has the right to say anything he wants - he just doesn't have a right to a job for life when he says something profoundly offensive to his employers! Did you whining academics post a petition for the Catholic professor who was l"
"It is no surprise that on the same day i sign this petition, it is the same day where i also sent out a dozen messages about Civil Rights Attorney Lynne Stewart being convicted by the Feds. The Left and the Progressive community is under attack in America"
