EXCERPT:

EARHARDT: "You all went to the California College Republican state conference. You had that table. We saw -- we're seeing pictures of it. You held up signs and one said ice, ice baby with the ice phone number on the back. The other said I love undocumented firearms. Now, the student Senate was upset with the Republican group, your group doing this? Is that right? They sent a letter? Who did they sent a letter to?"
TURNER: "The letter was sent to the student body."
EARHARDT: "And what did it say?"
TURNER: "It basically condemned us for the tabling saying that we should have never been supported in any way by the campus. And that we have no place on our campus."
EARHARDT: "And How did you feel? How did you react to that."
TURNER: "I mean, I honestly wasn’t surprised; our campus is extremely hostile to us. I mean --"
EARHARDT: "What have they done to you in the past."
TURNER: "They have fought us in just about everything, to be honest."
