Your Opinion: Mizzou students commended for showing film

Dear Editor:

Kudos to the University of Missouri students association.

I call your attention to a March 16 article by Daniel Nussbaum "Muslim Students Protest Campus Screening of "American Sniper' at University of Missouri." (http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2015/03/16/muslim-students-protest-campus-screening-of-american-sniper-at-university-of-missouri/).

Quotes from the article: "The University of Missouri students association confirmed that a campus screening of American Sniper would continue as originally scheduled after a Muslim student had protested the showing of the film earlier this month, calling it "blatant racist, colonialist propaganda." "However, in a March 3 letter to University of Missouri newspaper The Maneater, Farah El-Jayyousi wrote that Clint Eastwood's film "dehumanizes Arabs and Muslims and encourages racism in society," and referred to the film's protagonist, Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle, as a "killer with no regard for human life."

Chris Kyle was a true hero! No one will ever know how many lives he saved by stopping the Islamist killers before they could kill and/or maim our soldiers! I would guess it's hundreds that were able to come home vs. dying at the hands of Islamist killers because of his actions. As long as our Islamist coddling president refuses to recognize the fact that it is radical Islamists who are killing our soldiers (and Christians) then this type of misinformation will continue to spread only to further the radical Islamic goal of eliminating our Christian heritage and forcing Sharia law into our culture.

It's refreshing to hear that the University of Missouri students have not been swayed by the increasing anti-American, pro-Islamic rhetoric not only being vocalized but now even being taught in some universities under the guise of free speech and freedom of religion.
