UNO In New Orleans Turns Into Berkeley

Before you know it Jindal might have to call out the National Guard or in the alternative deliver some kegs to calm our young rabble.

NEW ORLEANS – Several students were apprehended by the University of New Orleans campus police after storming the office of the chancellor and getting into an altercation with authorities. Approximately 150 to 200 students protested the massive budget cuts to the university, chanting and demanding changes at the school. Several students claimed the police struck protestors first and that some students were maced by police, while campus police claimed the protestors instigated the altercation. Three or four students were apprehended by campus police after barging into the office of Chancellor Tim Ryan. The school has seen its budget slashed, faculty laid off and services cut as state legislators look to close a massive hole.
