'Fragile, left-wing children': Yale students condemned after interrupting free speech seminar​

A group of student protesters have been condemned after they attempted to interrup a panel discussion on free speech and civil liberties being held at Yale University.
The seminar was hosted by the Yale Federalist Society and had both progressive and conservative speakers.
As Yale Professor Kate Stith introduced Kristen Waggoner from the conservative Alliance Defending Freedom, students stood up and began protesting, stopping the forum from continuing.
While the students eventually left, witnesses said they congregated outside the lecture hall and stamped their feet in order to drown out the rest of the seminar.
The panellist had to be escorted out by police, with conservative lawyer Kristen Waggoner claiming she was concerned for her safety.

"At one time, educators boasted that their role was not to teach students what to think but how to think. Today, their role is far too often to teach students what to think on everything from immigration to global warming to the new sacred trinity of 'race, class and gender.'" - Thomas Sowell

Notice the correlation in the video. The fragile "tolerant" students protesting free speech were all masked. Hmmm...

This is reflective of the left as a whole. They claim to be tolerant, as long as you agree with them. If you dont, they are hostile, mean, aggressive, destructive.... basically they have a grown up temper tantrum. They dont know how to handle not getting "their way".

Imo, the youth of today lack discipline & respect. It's the me, me, me society.
(They're in for a rude awaking once they start working. How many employers will put up with that nonsense.)

I don't think it's going to turn out like they think it's going to turn out.
One of the sides in this still have something to lose. When that is no longer the case.
All bets are off and there will be hell to pay. I don't think the American left as a whole
will fare to well when it comes to uncontrolled violence.

Just wait for the leftists to really freak out when Orangeman Good is re elected...

A portion of the youth. Not all of them. It comes down to parenting mostly.

If arguing with Maoists, always push the buttons above - continuously - if you're lucky they'll physically attack you and you can have them arrested...or deal with it yourself, right there, right then.

The speaker should have had their own security and had them deal with these rabid shitweasels.

Giving in to these bottom-feeding cock-eaters is the last thing you want to do.

When are conservatives going to say "enough is enough!!" - and deal with this shit?

Too bad Rittenhouse wasn't an armed guard at the event. That would have been epic.

I'll agree on the label "large majority" - there are very few people under the age of 35 who are worth the bother.

Not sure I would go that far as we see the left glorified in the media while I'm sure there are many young people doing very constructive conservative things that get shunned and no press. There definitely are enough loons though.

They think swinging a bike lock at someone is a real fight.

When they face a situation where IEDs are what you use when you have too many targets to shoot, reality is going to hit them in the head with a clue-by-four.

Could not be said more perfectly. It's truly unfortunate.
