Ayers blew up statues while nobody was around, he was a vandal and arsonist but not a murderer like some lazy people who don't know how to google might say.

Unfortunately it appears you have not watched the vidoes I have linked to.

An FBI agent infiltrated the group and told of Ayers planning the bombs. The agent objected to Ayers that a nearby restraunt would be damaged far more than his target and people might be killed. Ayers said (basicly) "Oh, well, innocent people die in a revolution."  

Ayers was also in favor of "reeducation camps" in the event that they managed to overthrow the government and in favor of killing everyone who would not embrace communism.

Sorry, your portrayal of Ayers as a vandal is laughable and an insult to everyone who died or was injured because of his communist group. Bombs are not cans of spray paint.

Also, Ayers was the founder of Weatherman Underground ( a self-described communist revolutionary group) and the WU DID kill people. The only reason Ayers was not put away in prison was because of an illegal wire tap, not becaue he was not a communist terrorist.

On 9/11 Ayers also said he did not regret setting bombs and wished he had done more and would not rule out setting bombs in the future. The doors of his office are still decorated with communist propaganda.

As the founder of the Weatherman Underground and the person with the most authority in the organization I believe him to be responsible for every act of terror they committed, including all the people they killed and injured.

Born in 1944, Bill Ayers, along with his wife Bernardine Dohrn, was a 1960s leader of the homegrown terrorist group Weatherman, a Communist-driven splinter faction of Students for a Democratic Society. Characterizing Weatherman as "an American Red Army," Ayers summed up the organization's ideology as follows: "Kill all the rich pe ... post shortened to 2000 characters.

You do know that Sarah Palin and a few other Fox squawkers did absolutely no research before saying William Ayers killed people right? Not that any polarized channel working to stir up fake controversy (like all of them) and distract people from the real issues does any better. Instead they just ratcheted up the campaign talking points to the next level.

Ayers became involved in the New Left and the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).[10] He rose to national prominence as an SDS leader in 1968 and 1969. As head of an SDS regional group, the "Jesse James Gang," Ayers made decisive contributions to the Weatherman orientation toward militancy.[8] The group Ayers headed in Detroit, Michigan became one of the earliest gatherings of what became the Weatherman. Before the June 1969 SDS convention, Ayers became a prominent leader of the group, which arose as a result of a schism in SDS.[8] "During that time his infatuation with street fighting grew and he developed a language of confrontational militancy that became more and more pronounced over the year [1969]", disaffected former Weatherman member Cathy Wilkerson wrote in 2001. Ayers had previously become a roommate of Terry Robbins, a fellow militant, Wilkerson wrote. Robbins would later be killed while making a bomb.[11] In June 1969, the Weatherman took control of the SDS at its national convention, where Ayers was elected Education Secretary.[8] Later in 1969, Ayers participated in planting a bomb at a statue dedicated to police casualties in the 1886 Haymarket affair confrontation between labor supporters and the Chicago police.[12] The blast broke almost 100 windows and blew pieces of the statue onto the nearby Kennedy Expressway.[13] (The statue was rebuilt and unveiled on May 4, 1970, and blown up again by other Weathermen on October 6, 1970.[13][14] Rebuilding it yet again, the city posted a 24-hour police guard to prevent ... post shortened to 2000 characters.

The key point that you seem to be missing here is that the demographic that was Democratic back in the Civil Rights Movement days and before is Republican now. The old Southern Democrats are now mostly Southern Republicans.

But that premise is not true. The Republican party was formed to fight for civl rights and has done so for its entire history. I'm not a Republica but I want the record to be straight on what party has historically stood for what. I am an independant conservative.

It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.

It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s.

During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman's issuing an Execut ... post shortened to 2000 characters.
