College Republican Meeting interrupted by protestors (snowflake warning)
College Republican Meeting interrupted by protestors...who get escorted to the pokey.

My goodness, my son’s generation is going to inherit a mess.

I hope Churchill was correct when he said “If You Are Not a Liberal at 25, You Have No Heart. If You Are Not a Conservative at 35 You Have No Brain”.

What the hell is going on in high schools these days? How is it that anyone can make it into a university without understanding free speech?

I am incredulous at the statement "this is not a safe space knowing what [the college Republicans] talk about in this room in their meetings all year" (paraphrased).

Safe space? Where did the idea of "safe" mean absence of any point of view different from their own? Who ever told them to expect this?

Probably got the idea from some tenured professor of "Angry Offended Liberal Studies".

They(libs) have freedom of speech. You (conservatives) do not.

But there is hope, it seems OUR message is starting to get through. They are eating their own.

“Almost all the people in the library, mostly liberal at this point, started getting upset with them, and laughing at them and telling them to leave,” Leonard said. “The whole school and the whole library turned against them.”

maybe you are right that the Libs, in this case are eating their own. I see it as there was a n expression of knowing right from wrong. That is why this situation gives me a little hope.

Damn. I may have just found my excuse to go to S Crude for a doctorate. Who knew they had campus Republicans?
