This is what happens when you have moral zeal of a religious intensity but without the humility and self-control that come with religion. That is basically what the left is -- moral outrage overflowing its banks. The reason they feel justified to disrupt conservative speakers is because they are certain of their own moral virtue and the righteousness of their rage, and they recognize no limits on it.

Ulk, I’m so sorry happen. I’m so glad you were able to answer people’s questions though afterwards, probably the only bit conservatism they’ll here not through the lenscope of the liberals. I thank God that I go to a small liberal (well only a forth or third of our campus is) arts college. My friends from high school who go to these large colleges, liberals through and through afterwards (though it might have something to do with them being Canadian). Luckly, even the liberals on our campus are innocuous (there is one currently in the bed under me with my roommate, a liberal, who though may think I’m an idiot for my positions, will argue with me to the point of yelling and then make dinner for my room mate and me). Actually, if you don’t mind, I might send your article to my Media Law professor, he’s trying to get funding from a first amendment group so we can have other speakers on things like this. Maybe well hear you at Berry College, where I almost guarantee that you’ll at least be heard out :D.

When I read stuff like this, I become more convinced than ever that all this can only end in a civil war.

God help us.

No one has to guess where the next crop of Brownshirts will come from.

“This is exactly what the fascists did in Germany in the 1930s.”

bears repeating

The nazis rose to power using the same tactics. No surprise from the authors of hate to see claims of hate.

We must engage the internet and utube more to educate the young minds of mush.

“My name is Hollywood Montrose, and I’m a bisexual, bi-racial, bi-lingual transgendered person of color who was stabbed 27 times because the Family Research Council says gays can change.”

Well.. the stabbing was a change, wasn't it?

seriously
we have to break from the north east and let them form their messed up liberal utopia

I for one have had enough of these idiots who do not allow free speech or even know what the constitution is about

When colleges abandon ‘affirmative action admissions’ this will stop, at least among the students.

Our colleges and universities - all of them - have admissions quotas to achieve diversity that turns around and bites the entire idea of academic freedom right in the ar$e.

I suspect that very few of the folks who protested as noted in the article could defend the positions they are advocating for or protesting against.

Part of the reason (in a broader sense) to attend college is being able to think critically and when appropriate defend your views when challenged. Yet, these goals quite often take a back seat to students who believe they make their point best by being disruptive and yelling the loudest. It’s a sign that their college education has been a waste of time and money.
