How do you react when you read about a group that threatens violence if the Constitution is not replaced?

There is a temptation to react to this story as though it's a Black-American issue, but resist it. I don't see any evidence that the black community at large harbors any such sentiment. Look closely and you'll see white faces there. No, this is an education issue. This movement is the logical consequence of teaching American students a new ideology, one that is an anathema to liberty. It is the logical consequence of political correctness.
Keep in mind that the Democratic Party has been using local school boards as the spawning ground for its politicians for the past several decades. Scratch any Democratic Congressman and you'll likely find a politician who began their career on a school board. Republicans simply never caught onto the strategy. They're too dumb. During these decades civics all but disappeared from school curricula. Relativism took root. Traditional concepts of religion, marriage, military service, and civic pride were replaced with cynicism. Liberty was traded for fairness. Equality of opportunity was replaced with equality of outcome (reinforced by trophies for all and never keep score). And now we are threatened to surrender our Constitution or suffer the consequences. How about that?

It is angering and frustrating. I want nothing more than to advise them to move to China or another nation and see how they feel.

You know, of course, that you will be ridiculed for using the old "Love it or leave it" line...

Prepare for that violence with like violence. Do not misconstrue my kindness for weakness.

Dershowitz Slams 'Double Standard, Hypocrisy, Bigotry' of College Protests
On "The Kelly File" tonight, Alan Dershowitz weighed in on the student demonstrations that are taking place on college campuses across the country.
This is the ultimate consequence of liberal/progressive thinking. We saw the same thing in the '60s and '70s.

Actually, this situation began to develop long before the '60s and '70s. It began shortly following WWI as Marxism found its way onto American campuses. However, it remained a clandestine movement until the end of WWII when America, flush from victory and relatively unscathed from the conflict began to doubt itself. It turned to Europe for cultural leadership and that's when socialism broke into the open. Political correctness began to suppress freedom of speech. Traditional values came under harsh criticism of the Critical Thinkers. Sad.

CPT Jack Durish' thanks for the big picture view.
I was first aware of this in the early '60s when I ran into a few radical professors. Most then were traditionalists and the radicals stood out like a sore thumb. I also remember one campus protest in which the protestors did not look like students, and the students laughed at them and tossed pennies to them.
By the time I graduated they had spread, but had not yet taken over. When I was in Viet Nam three years later my mother wrote about a riot that took place on campus, but was relieved that nobody had been killed.
I saw a big change there in six or seven years, and had thought of that as the beginning of the liberal/progressive/hippie takeover of academia.
