Lefty Fascists Shut Down Yet Another College Speech

The fascists are at it again, screaming like wild children and shutting down viewpoints they don't agree. The latest, at Middlebury College in Vermont. The target, conservative political scientist and author, Charles Murray.

As he took the stage in Wilson Hall, students booed, rose and turned their backs to the stage before reading a statement in unison. Students broke into chants of “Hey hey, ho ho, Charles Murray has got to go,” and “Racist, sexist, anti-gay, Charles Murray go away!”

Murray, wearing a suit and tie, stood at the lectern and waited to be heard. The shouts continued:

“Your message is hatred; we cannot tolerate it!”

“Charles Murray, go away; Middlebury says no way!”

After about 25 minutes, and when it became clear the chants would not abate, faculty came onstage and announced plans to move the lecture to a different location.

Beyond childish. These fascists have no other recourse but to chant like soccer hooligans apparently, the essence of a lack of intelligence and inability to debate. Anyone with the IQ of a gerbil can sit there and just yell over someone else.

Didn't stop there though.

Professor Allison Stanger was assaulted and her neck was injured when someone pulled her hair as she tried to shield Murray from the 20 or 30 people who attacked the duo outside the McCullough Student Center, said Bill Burger, a vice president of communications at Middlebury College.

Burger said people in the crowd, made up of students and “outside agitators,” wore masks as they screamed at Murray

. . . . About half an hour after the event ended, Burger said, the two, accompanied by a college administrator and two public safety officers, tried to leave the building via a back entrance and hurry to a car. But protesters had surrounded various entrances and swarmed to the fleeing Murray and Stanger as they exited, he said.

Once Murray and Stanger were inside the car — and after Stanger had been assaulted — the crowd began jumping on the hood and banging on the windows, according to Burger. The driver tried to inch out of the parking space but the angry crowd surrounded the vehicle and tried to keep it from leaving.

Burger said someone threw a stop sign attached to a heavy cement base in front of the car. It finally got free of the crowd and then left campus..

There you go, another anarchist riot with yet another woman getting hurt on yet another college campus.

Yet these leftist anarchists spin it as the words they might have heard were the real threat, the real danger.

Trump really needs to pull all federal funding and assistance to these universities. They're no longer institutions of education but rather, domestic terrorist training grounds.

Lefty Fascists? Stop whining about an event you didn't even attend. There were protesters. People can protest.

Anarchists too? Surprised you didn't throw in commie. And terrorists too. LOL It seems you wouldn't know a terrorist if one bit you on the nose.

They think they're saving the world from future Hitlers, but in so doing, ruining it.

Fascism wins the day.

Fascists are more than just childlike. Who in their right mind chants 'shut up' for twenty five minutes straight?

Fascists

Ruining the world or just irritating whiny people who weren't even there?

Ruining the world. Free speech is a fundamental human right and the basic component of a free society.

'whiny' people were the ones 'chanting'.

Edit: But go ahead give them a forum, schedule a rally, they can even disrupt themselves...

I guarantee they will be the only ones attending.

Basically, the leftist fascists are cowards.

Any opposing viewpoint is to be silenced. The free flow of ideas and opinions, the promise of free speech and free expression is an anathema to them.

Protesters are not fascists. Yelling shut up apparently worked in this case.

Yes and people are free to protest what another says.

Also irritating any conservative students who may have wished to listen to the professor speak? Restricting free movement, intimidation? All cool as long as it is to stunt worldviews you disagree with, or do you think the protesters/agitators were within their rights?

Screaming down a guest so they can't speak is not protesting.

Jumping on a car, bashing it, never mind assaulting a woman is not protesting either.

All I can take from your response is you approve of assaulting women you don't agree with. Why do you support the beating of women, Reldra?

So injuring women and throwing cement at people is OK as long as it's called "a protest?"

I don't think so. Causing bodily harm to another person IS A CRIME. You are embarrassing yourself by saying otherwise.

Unfortunately, all of those you defend have already eaten the crayons.

Poor people are the ones labeling others, shutting down information, discourse, learning.
