===Controversial statement about Tate-LaBianca murders===

Dohrn was criticized for a comment she made about the [[Charles Manson]] led [[Sharon Tate|Tate]]-[[Leno and Rosemary LaBianca|LaBianca]] murders in a speech during the December 1969 "War Council" meeting organized by the Weathermen and attended by about 400 people in [[Flint, Michigan]]: "Dig it! First they killed those pigs and then they put a fork in 
theirpig Tate's belliesy. Wild!" Sharon Tate was over 8 months pregnant at the time. Dohrn also charged that her fellow left-wingers showed themselves to be scared "honkies" for not burning down Chicago when [[Black Panthers|Black Panther]] leader [[Fred Hampton]] was killed, and urged her audience to arm themselves and be "a fighting force alongside the blacks".<ref name=lfnyt112281>Franks, Lucinda, [http://select.nytimes.com/search/restricted/article?res=F00B1FFF3D5C0C718EDDA80994D9484D81 "The Seeds of Terror"], article, ''New York Times Maga(contracted; show full)[[Category:Members of Students for a Democratic Society (1960 organization)]]
