The staff of Modesto Junior College (part of the Yosemite Community College District) told a student that he could not pass out copies of the United States Constitution outside the student center on September 17, 2013 — Constitution Day.

Captured on video, campus security and administrators told Robert Van Tuinen to stop passing out Constitution papers and let him know that he would only be allowed to pass them out in the college’s free speech zone after scheduling it several days or weeks ahead of time.

This video contains the edited portions of Van Tuinen’s experience. The full version is available on his YouTube page.

YCCD Public Affairs Director Nick Stavrianoudakis issued a statement to KVML by email:

“The Yosemite Community College District’s (YCCD) colleges have free speech areas on campus for activities such as distributing materials on campus. In addition, people can distribute material in the areas generally available to students and the community as long as they don’t “disrupt the orderly operation of the college.” In the case of the YouTube video, it did not appear that the student was disrupting the orderly operation of the college. Therefore, we are looking into the matter. The administration of the YCCD supports the peaceful distribution of the Constitution and other materials on campus, which is why our colleges support Constitution Day with activities each year.”

Here are the thoughts and opinions last Saturday from a variety of war protesters. President Obama will address the nation this evening beginning at 6pm on why he feels that Syria should be attacked. The address will be broadcast live on AM 1450 KVML.

It has been a long time since war protesters have been featured in the “main stream media”. CBS filed this report over the weekend. President Obama will address the nation this Tuesday night on why he feels the USA should attack Syria. KVML radio will carry the address beginning at 6pm (Pacific local time).

At an Arizona Town Hall Meeting last week, a man in the audience told US Senator John McCain that he should be arrested and tried for treason. McCain appears to begin talking and joking around with someone else in the audience as this man reads his statement.

Republican House Speaker John Boehner announced that he will support Obama’s request for Congressional authorization for the use of force in Syria. “I’m going to support the president’s call to action,” Boehner said.

US House Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says that while in San Francisco, she held a conversation with her 5-Year-Old Grandson about a possible attack On Syria. Pelosi implies that the five year old child asked her questions because he wonders about how a possible attack will affect U.S. interests…

As Secretary of State John Kerry was talking about his reasons for wanting to attack Syria, Medea Benjamin suddenly began to shout that “nobody wants this war”. The Capitol Police arrested her and she spent one full night in jail.
