I see a whle bunch of people in this video that need to get a life... Your parents aren't paying for your college to follow some liberal douche professor at a personal protest.
I bet every person protesting has a bank account. Waste your time holding signs, they arrest you they ignore you. Yet you give them their power when you give them your banking business.
Think about this. Just entertain this thought. Think about how much money the local government makes off of the protest. Columbus GA and the local government doesn't want the SOA shut down because then the protest wouldn't happen and the money wouldn't be spent in the local economy. I'm just sayin, bottom line is always about the money. As long as there is a big protest generating a lot of revenue, there will be resistance to shutting the SOA down.

What a bunch of morons, protesting something they know nothing about. It's almost as bad as those 9/11 Truthers. Hell, I'm sure at least a few of these protestors ARE 9/11 Truthers. Yet they believe the propaganda put forth by guys like Father Bourgeois. the hell kind of last name is that anyway?
Have you ever thought that the reason many of the Latin American trainees in this camp go on to do these war crimes is FREE WILL? I mean, any idiot can teach you how to conduct war crimes and torture and whatnot, but it doesn't take a genius to realize you have to be a bad person or under extreme circumstances elsewhere in order to actually put those into place. You people just assume every person who goes into the military is trained to be a killer, as if he can't control what he learns.

This is bullshit. There's still no proof that the SOA trains Latin Americans for war crimes. I mean, SURE, some of them go on to be dictators or war criminals in various militaries, but what does that prove? If the guys at Hadith had been convicted of the charges, would that indict the entire military? No! It's the stupid behavior of a few idiots.
Same principle here. Idiotic, bloodthirsty Latin Americans who came back and served evil militaries and dictatorships. Nothing more.
What's ironic is that most of the students protesting in this documentary come from schools named after Ronald Reagan who was his biggest endorser, supporter and promoter.
Really? EVERYBODY knew about this place since Reagan's administration, when Noriega was captured during the invation of Panama it came out that he was not only trainned there
but he was also on the CIA'a payroll. "More people are finding out" give me a break! This place is as emblematic to the USG as the fucking bold eagle since the 70's.

more people are finding out about the SOA every day, every hour, as we speak even.
I'm very hopeful that behemoth will close down very soon!
