Angry Muslims Rush Stage During American Sniper Showing And Then THIS Happens The University of Michigan made headlines earlier this month when they decided to cancel a showing of American Sniper after Muslims students deemed the film racist. The University later reversed their decision, after outcries from the student body as well as football coach Jim Harbaugh. Now, Eastern Michigan University announced their intention to show two screenings of the box office hit. During the first viewing, four protestors reportedly climbed onstage at the Student Center Auditorium, and were ultimately arrested after disrupting the show. Reports from the schools newspaper indicate that 35 students walked on to the stage at 8 PM. They attempted to shut down the showing of Chris Kyles story. Protest leaders Ahmed Abbas, Layali Alsadeh, Jenna Hamed and Sabreen Dari will all arrested for their actions, but the 10 PM viewing remained canceled. The conversation we had wanted to make sure student safety was at the forefront, claims student body president Desmond Miller, regarding a decision he made with President Susan Martin. We wanted to make sure whatever happens, students would be safe. The second part of it, which is actually just as important as the first part, was making sure we have a very serious dialogue about the movie and the propaganda associated with this movie. What do you think of the protest? Should EMU have shown the second viewing anyways?
