.....David Horowitz descended on UCI last night as part of his nationwide tour condemning a national student group called Muslim Student Association – a group with more than 150 chapters in colleges all over the country.
.....Horowitz, a famous right wing nut jobber, is famous for taking out provocative full page ads in campus newspapers that say things like Black people don't deserve reparations for slavery, in advance of his speaking engagements during Black History Month, which would then cause all kinds of static to the school paper. In some cases protesters or school administrators would admonish the paper for printing the incendiary ad, which would prompt Horowitz to say it is an example of censorship on university campuses.
…..
.....Once in the lecture room at Rowland Hall, the first thing I noticed was it was sparsely populated, mostly with people 50 and over. There were about 40 audience members total, scattered in seats throughout the lecture room. The room was a minimalist theater style setting with white undecorated walls and ceiling, and puke inducing overhead fluorescent lighting. At the front of the room was a obviously photoshopped poster of a hijabed Muslim woman holding a sign that says "God Bless Hitler" in English?
.....Horowitz is droning on about something in a beige suit with red undershirt. His voice is raspy and he's got a bottle of Aquafina. If I didn't know better, I would say he looks either half drunk, or hung over.
.....He says Muslim student groups all over the United States are being trained to kill us in our own schools, "We're providing technology to people who's ideology is that we are the devil and they have to blow us up," he says.
…..
.....During the question and answer phase, one bright young student relayed a story of how he has also endured suffering.
....."I'm a history student and I've had the misfortune of having taken an Chicano studies course," he lamented. "The whole course was learning about these no name activists and these brown berets and whatever. The only reason I took it was because it was the only class that fit my schedule."
....."Thugs," Horowitz replies….

I wonder if there are any atheist student unions in Islamic countries?
Or Christian student unions?
Or unions?
Or Dissenters?
oh...I see.
Was there a point to that, TB? I can do without any religion whatsoever.
TB are you backing this guy? Or just defending his right to be a fuckin' moron?
Either way I want to mention to you that just because the Muslim society is a "hushed up" (that's a light and nice way to put it) society, doesn't mean that the inverse, i.e. a purely open to all ideas, including the nonsensical ones is the better way.
So is D.Horowitz jewish? That last name sure is.
any beheadings at the event?
No, but there were nonconsensual circumcisions. Oh, wait, that's a redundancy.
