Student under fire for shouting: 'Remember Chappaquiddick!'
Self-described liberal hollers phrase as Kennedy begins on-campus speech
A community college student in Massachusetts faces possible disciplinary action for shouting "Remember Chappaquiddick!" during an on-campus speech by Democrat Sen. Edward Kennedy.
Paul Trost, 20, a student at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass., says he was upset by an introduction of Kennedy given by Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., in which the congressman noted how the long-time senator overcame hardship in life on his way to success.
"Lynch said Kennedy had overcome such adversity to get to the place he was, and that's a bunch of bull," Trost said of the introduction, which occurred in the school's student center Tuesday morning.
The student said one of his teachers confronted him after a class about the Chappaquiddick issue.
"One of my teachers called me ignorant and told me this was an embarrassment to the school," Trost told WND. "She said to me, 'Can't you forgive him after all these years?' And I said, 'No, he killed somebody.'
"If it had been me or any other person, we'd be in jail," Trost says he told his instructor.
Referring to his two-word shout, Trost said, "I did it because I know about Kennedy's past. I know what happened at Chappaquiddick.
"I haven't yet found out what's going to happen to me," Trost said, referring to the warning from campus police.
"I don't regret what I did," Trost said. "And if they ask me to apologize, I won't do it."
Trost's father, Edward, who calls himself a conservative, says he's proud of his son.

Kennedy is a disgusting murderer and the only reason he is given a pass is because of his anti-American activism on behalf of the DNC.
