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.
Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.
"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.
Just as Kennedy began speaking, Trost was walking out of the room when he shouted, "Remember Chappaquiddick!"
"Most of the crowd gasped," Trost said. "Then I walked out of the student center."
The student says a campus police officer went outside and stopped him. He also saw some state troopers go outside, the type who accompany Kennedy around the state to provide security.
Trost says the cop took down his information and told him he would be hearing from school officials about disciplinary action. A spokesman with the campus police verified the incident but stressed that Trost was not arrested.
The student said one of his teachers confronted him after a class about the Chappaquiddick issue.

I applaud this young man's actions and would wish that every single politician in America would face the same honest statement said outloud in a clear and honest voice.
The notion that Ted Kennedy overcame adversity to become a US Senator is simply absurd. Kennedy wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth, it was solid gold. His machine has every power block in Massachusetts sewn up and has for years.
It's too bad that George W. Bush doesn't have the same thing happen to him, but his Presidential entourage makes sure that there is no one within camera range of him when he speaks, and the SS would have arrested and charged this young man had he done the same thing to Bush.
