The “University” used to be a place where young people of a wide “diversity “ came together for advanced college education and exposure to ideas and culture different from their own, resulting in a “universal” experience, and ideally, a better understanding of those diverse ideas, philosophies, and cultures.
Not so, anymore.
Leftist ideologies have permeated the institutions of higher education and transformed the university campus into a place of intolerance and indoctrination; a “boot camp” sort of training ground for revolutionaries and culture warriors, who refuse to even allow a diversity of ideologies, or opinions who may not “toe the line” with their own radical ideology.
In the name of “tolerance” and “social justice”, diversity of political philosophies or opinions, and divergent views, shall not be tolerated!
Former U. S. Congressman, and Lt. Col. (Ret) Alan West, and former head of Texas GOP, had to be escorted by police off the campus of the University of Buffalo last night, where he had been invited to speak to students by a conservative student organization.
Alan West was born in a “blacks only” hospital in 1962, in an era when black students had to be escorted ONTO college campuses for their own safety, and was the first black Congressman elected from Florida since Reconstruction.
His speech at UoB was “America is not Racist”, and he was addressing American exceptionalism, when the Marxist founded ‘Black Lives Matter’ “protestors” disrupted the event demanding West, chanting “No justice, no peace” and “We want West”. (Probably lucky for them no one was able to lay a hand on him!).
The young lady, Therese Purcell, Pres. of Young Americans for Freedom, at whose invitation West was on campus, was chased and threatened, locking herself in a men’s bathroom fearing for her life, and calling 911, after being pursued by a mob yelling for her “capture”. West was taken off campus by police.
West’s message of overcoming racism was not to be tolerated.
Dr. D. James Kennedy once said “The last great virtue of a dying society is ‘Tolerance’.”
Tolerance itself, it appears, is Dead.
