Last month I penned a letter-to-the-editor to the K-State student paper the Collegian. The topic of the letter was an article about K-State honoring a Nigerian governor. The governor of Zamfara state, Mahmud Shinkafi is also a rabid proponent of Sharia Law. When not flogging unwed mothers, Shinkafi spends his time issuing death threats to journalists that he doesn't like:
The day the article on honoring this monster was published was also the last day of the paper's operation for the semester. Today they have started updating the Collegian's website, so I just went over there to see if they would have the intellectual honesty to post my comments or letter. Instead, the article of May 9 has been completely removed. At the article's original link there is this notice:
However the University's official announcement of their Sharia Buddy's visit is still up, but who knows for how long. Heh.

Down the Kansas State University Collegian Memory Hole
Last month I penned a letter-to-the-editor to the K-State student paper the Collegian. The topic of the letter was an article about K-State honoring a Nigerian governor. The governor of Zamfara state, Mahmud Shinkafi is also a rabid proponent of Sharia Law. When not flogging unwed mothers, Shinkafi spends his time issuing death threats to journalists that he doesn't like:
Even as prominent and respected Muslims try to douse the serious situation, those who started the fire are still trying to sell snake oil. As calm was returning to the country, Deputy Governor Mamuda Aliyu Shinkafi of Zamfara State, where the Sharia penal code reared its head in 1999, issued a ‘fatwa’ (religious decree) saying: “It is binding on all Muslims wherever they are, to consider the killing of the writer as a religious duty. …. Just like the blasphemous Indian writer Salman Rushdie, the blood of Isioma Daniel can be shed.”
The day the article on honoring this monster was published was also the last day of the paper's operation for the semester. Today they have started updating the Collegian's website, so I just went over there to see if they would have the intellectual honesty to post my comments or letter. Instead, the article of May 9 has been completely removed. At the article's original link there is this notice:
