VIEWS 4 Tuesday, February 1, 2011 The George-Anne You - and Ayers - have a right W to speak at GSU "Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon..." This is the quote from the book "Fugitive Days" written by a very controversial and well known figure. In fact, the same controversial political figure has been chosen by GSU to come and speak to its students this coming Monday. Bill Ayers, an infamous figure for his participation in certain activist acts during this decade, will be speaking at the PAC, in an event open to the public. Don't raise the alarm just yet. Although the excerpt selected from the book has numerous questions regarding Ayers' involvement, Ayers admitted some elements of the book were fictitious in an interview with the New York Times. However, his controversial past continues to meet opposition nationally and on GSU's campus. Those who oppose his visit feel that someone with such a radical past should not speak on campus, and Ayers' supporters believe his ideas are constitutionally protected. Marcus Barkley/STAFF Just because speech isn't popular doesn't mean that speech is any less protected by the First Amendment. Ayers' views may differ from that of others, but this doesn't necessarily Decker: U.S. should support democracy mean that you can't learn from an opposing opinion.
