they didn't let Milo Yiannopoulos speak.....or shouted him down....no big loss, but it looks foolish. DePaul is extremely PC.

In all seriousness, banning Ben Shapiro is a little much. He's not actively harmful, he's just, like all the so-called Never-Trumpers, a prissy little dork with fewer principles than a Cambodian hooker. Let people see him if only to make fun of him.

Milo Yabbadabbadoo isn't worth the headache.

I think you're way off in questioning Shapiro's principles.

My politics aren't in line with Shapiro's, and he's a whiny little bastard, but there's no legitimate reason to ban him from a campus other than pure anti-intellectualism/censorship. And whatever you want to say about Shapiro, I've never heard him make an illogical argument and he's a man of conviction who quit Breitbart rather than take up its editorial stance in supporting Trump.

Milo is a flamethrower, an entertainer, a totally different animal.

He's a man of conviction but with questionable principles?

Do you have anymore examples? I have a jackass friend who loves to tell me DePaul isn't a cry baby campus "like Loyola" in his words. Other than Milo I haven't been able to illustrate that both are the same.

PS. Yes he is a douche but this comes down to school pride.

There are far-left antisemitic speakers I wouldn't want collecting a speaking fee either.

Speaking of that, it's hard to believe that the Jeremy Corbin led Labor Party in the UK has gone so far in support of Islamic Constituents that they are not actively considered the anti-Jew party. Never thought I'd see much of that from the left, especially the center left.

Yeah, Corbyn's Labour has some problems, but the held-over Blairites are such impotent bitches that they can't do anything to stop him, and they try like once a week.

Ah, the ever changing landscape of a changing electorate. Having a policy of mass immigration of an un-assimilatable population is for more than just showing your goodwill towards man.

Amazing that the Labor MP's voted to oust Corbyn like 3-1, but then Corbyn won the leadership vote which was put out to members by a wide margin. I love UK politics....

It's like Hillary v. Bernie, where the party elites want one person and the little people want another, except Labour's elites are more easily foiled.

Shapiro eventually went for Trump like all the Never-Trumpers.

From a Nina Burleigh (Newsweek) piece:

At DePaul University in Chicago, Students for Trump snuck out to the student center around midnight on April 4 and chalked the sidewalk, scrawling their candidate’s name and phrases like “Blue lives matter” and “Don’t feel the Bern.” They then posted photos of their handiwork on Facebook. By morning light, other students had complained to the administration, and the university had dispatched custodians to wash away the offending chalk.

Nicole Been, a national political/recruitment director with Students for Trump at DePaul, says their slogans were selectively washed off; for example, janitors erased “Don’t” and left “feel the Bern.” After students began a social media campaign to file a hate crimes complaint against the Trump supporters . . . Students for Trump went to the administration, demanding their right to free speech. “We said we are sick of being called ‘racist’ and ‘bigot,’ and this is on you,” Been recalls. “And they said, ‘Well, [your slogans] can be triggering.’”

France is the National Front/Le Pen.

The old man invented this shit decades ago. Really a lot of the alt-right/Trump campaigning is lifted straight out of the Le Pen playbook.

I wonder if he's cogent enough to realize his plan finally worked. Took more than 40 years but he finally did it, of course not in France (YET) but in America and the UK. I'm sure that grinds him more than anything.

Oh, France is gonna fall next. I see no way it doesn't. You think we hate non-assimilating Muslims? Try a country that actually has to deal with them every day. French Jews support the National Front!
