NYU Students Protest Conservative Speaker

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Live video from inside the event showed McInnes speaking to the crowd and shouting at protesters who managed to sneak into the seminar. A frustrated McInnes cut the speech early after having a few choice words with some protesters who yelled things like “Shame!” and “Who’s campus, our campus!” at him.

Tolerant?  Hardly.

Gizmodo reported that McInnes barely made it into the NYU building. He was met with several protesters rushing him and unruly chants. The Post reported that some set “Make America Great Again” hats on fire.

The protests were apparently coordinated through Facebook under the name “Disrupt Gavin McInnes at NYU.”

“Come to Kimmel, Rosenthal Pavilion to let NYU know that we will not stand for bigotry, racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny on our campus,” the event page reads. “Gavin McInnes has a long track record of using incendiary language to attract media attention and frenzy…Most recently, in December 2016, Gavin McInnes launched an informal group called the Proud Boys, an “anti racial guilt,” anti-feminist organization. When NYC Antifa began to share information about members of the group with their employers (in many cases leading to job loss), McInnes urged the Proud Boys to attend an Antifa concert and ‘wreck the s–t’ of the ‘f–gots.’”

The College Republicans group said in a statement they were disappointed in the protests, calling it a “shame” that the protesters couldn’t “be respectful of McInnes.”

The McInnes protest comes a day after UC Berkeley erupted over Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos’ planned speech. Rioters were seen lighting fires, pepper-spraying a Trump supporter and vandalizing buildings.

Apparently, the protesters and the leftists behind this crap don’t understand that in a free country that means both sides should have a chance to speak without being forced into silence by violent mobs.  The problem is, they think they are so ideologically superior that there is no need to hear the other side.

Again, that was the same belief system of the communists, socialists and Nazis. . . yet, these idiots have tried to paste similar labels on their opposition.

The violent liberal left Democrat supporters on college campuses are showing what good totalitarian tools they are.
