Communist Angela Davis ran into some unexpected “resistance” recently at Florida State University (FSU), which spent $31,000 to bring the former Lenin Peace Prize winner to FSU for a talk to students about revolution. About 20 members of the College Republicans protested her appearance with chants of “Hey Hey Ho Ho Communism has got to go” and signs proclaiming “Noles Against Communism” and identifying 100 million deaths from communist ideology.

“Noles” is shorthand for Florida State Seminoles and applies to students, athletes, or graduates from the prestigious public college in the state of Florida.
