UCSB's 'Darkside'



Why are UCSB students always surprised to learn about the riots and the bank burning?
Why did UC want to shutdown these webfolks?
Could be the the same answer to both questions...

  1. Lefty Bryant was just a street punk. Sneddon took no more notice of him then he did of hundeds of these street urchins. By the way..Tom Sneddon was not the District Attorney then, it was David Minier. Sneddon was just one of a couple of dozen Deputy DAs..and I'm not sure Sneddon even went after the punk Bryant. I did in a streeet confrontation. I was County Chair of the Young Republicans and we looked forward to a tangle...Bryant was a loser,a short kid and wanted to be a leader of losers. My side won. Bryant died in Colorado ..so I heard.BB

    Thanks... so Bryant was not a Black Panther? It was Sneddon who claimed he was... I did not think Bryant was a Black Panther. Why would Sneddon exaggerate?

    Sure, the violent students of IV in 1969-1970 lost and they deserved to. The havoc they caused, including injuries to a number of Sheriffs' Deputies and the death of Dover Sharp, are inexcusable.

    But why are those on the right sore winners? And why can't those on the right admit that some pretty atrocious acts were committed by, for example, by LA Law Enforcement officers called in? Even William F. Buckley agreed.

    I've never heard anyone from the right applaud UCSB for taking a strong stand in the case of Will Allen, whose denial of a faculty position at UCSB started the major fracas that led to the bank burning. Seems like everyone has chosen to attack UCSB, which means UCSB was probably the most honorable in the whole affair.
