Columbia University closes their border to the Minutemen

I am on student senate at my college and I cannot condone how they did their protest. If we had to deal with that everytime a group of the left or right wing didn't like the idea that the otherside had invited a group onto campus that they didn't agree with we wouldn't be able to function as a university. They should have had their own meeting to speak about why they didn't agree with what the minute men the following week. There is a procedure to allow groups onto a campus to speak and if you don't want them to speak go through the correct procedures as to why they shouln't be able to.

Yes. Universities should give invited speakers at least ten minutes of uninterrupted time. After all, the rational argument is that universities should be free and open fora of ideas conservative and liberal.

However, the more fun and irrational argument is that, when you are presented the opportunity, you should get the little 'Minuteman' soccer dad racists in your sights and take them down.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean that anyone has to pay the least bit of attention to your speech.

Predictably, Bill 'Cut His Mic!" O'Reilly is very, very angry at the liberal bastard students.

Krupo-

By all means, save or repost it as your own.

I was actually hoping this vid would be more of a comment magnet and the David Frost Yippie battle was just too entertaining for me to pass up.

Your escalator post is going straight to the top.

Ridiculous - the Minutemen (a moniker no doubt given to them by the women in their lives) use extremist tactics; what the students did was relatively calm.

Extra points for interviewing the conservative douchebag at the end to put the punctuation on the proceedings.

So the Minutemen are "racist" for wanting secure borders and American tax money to be spent on legal Americans?

Leftist fascism in action. Why shell out big green for 5 years at Stalin-Marx Kollij when you could sit at home and be slightly less ignorant for free?

Absolutely ridiculous.

One thing a college education should be able to do is instruct a person in how to skillfully, and persuasively argue a position. Presenting a counter argument that effectively defeats the contentions of your opponent does far more damage to his position than shouting lame slogans at him ever will. Had this group been mature and/or intelligent they would have done just that in the Q&A session that always follows a talk like that. If there was no opportunity for that then they should have written an opinion piece for the student newspaper.

Yelling, screaming and storming a stage are the tools of those who cannot articulate themselves. All these students have done is show how little they belong in an intellectual environment.

Sorry, theo74. There are black people and there are nitros. That's according to the Gospel of Chris Rock.

For truly virulent and disgusting racism, look no further than the liberal intelligentsia's treatment of black conservatives.
