Ann Coulter's Answer to Canada!

[PubliusInfinitum]

I try to remember that some of our members require spoon-feeding of ideas, so forgive me for simply posting the Ann Coulter column.

Here is the breakdown so that you can understand, as " talking mean" actually has nothing
to do with the OP.

1. Ms. Coulter was invited to speak to students at the University.

2. Left wing 'scholars' looked into their well-worn compendium on civil discourse, and 'market place of ideas' strategies, and shouted and rioted so that Ms. Coulter could not deliver here talk.

3. No one was force to join the assembly who wished to hear ideas with which they might or might not agree.

Still with me?

4. Canada represents ersatz-EU, in that free speech means only if the left agrees with your speech content.

5. Those of us who honor the first amendment of the US Constitution, as see it as a higher level of social evolution than censorship, would champion Ms. Coulter's right to speak, and critique Canadian culture in this regard.

5a. Consider the this quote, attributed to Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
Have someone explain it to you.

she chose not to speak on the advice of her bodygaurd..it is bullshit...there were no reported threats the university security or police expressed no concerns over her speaking...it is making something out of nothing

So, if I understand your point, such as it is, Ms. Coulter would have cancelled her speech to gain publicity, riot or no riot.

Astute.

Have someone explain it to you.

Last night Bill O'Reilly interviewed the spokesperson from U of O who defended the University's position and the truly rude and hateful students who apparently had been goaded by staff to exhibit such behavior. When O'Reilly repeatedly asked her for an example of something Coulter had said to merit the letter and the treatment she received on campus, the person could only come up with Coulter's line "It would be a much better country if women did not vote. . . " line and "All Muslims should be on the no fly list". . .both obviously exaggerated for effect and said for humor.

When O'Reilly questioned the spokesperson about free speech rights in Canada, the spokesperson said, with a straight face, that Coulter would be welcome to speak anywhere else in Canada. But a University was not an appropriate place.

I found that absolutely amazing. And I fear for what kinds of things Universities think ARE important to expose their fragile students to.

Tom Petty?

btw my apologies to the Equine breed for my previous post.

The apology should be to the five teachers who the grades of schooling that you completed.

I did only go to 11 years of regular public school.
I was double promoted and did not have to attend one grade.
How about you?

Can't you tell how smart I am from my avatar?

So, you have 22 years of education, based on graduating 11th grade twice?

You probably have to carry the diploma in your wallet, so folks won't judge you on your writing skills.

But, I did know you were smart, since you passed the exam to gain entry to the USMB.


"How about you?"
Frankly, my education began after I graduated.

 

[uscitizen]

Students who were goaded by staff?

I call BS on that.

Great point.

I was amazed, as well. Here we are brought up to believe that the college campus is exactly where we want students to hear every permutation of argument, and this stenographer, er, journalist, claims exactly the opposite.

I think Coulter hit on this idea and, peripherially, slammed the libs who control almost every college and university as to how they control the intellectual pipeline.

 

[uscitizen]

After Coltface's statements I don't really advise her to ever go back to Canada.

Lucky Canada.

The whole thing makes me wonder WTF Coulter had to say to Canadians that would get them so worked up.

Maybe she wanted to speak French?

 

[Kalam]

I can't imagine even the local homeless folks would appoint you to speak for them.

Per Canada's request, I'd like to reiterate the message to Coulter and point out that it applies doubly to fans of her inane vitriol:

I was blessed with an education at a university who invited EVERYBODY. We had Democrats, Republicans, Birchers, a militant Communist from Russia--yes, the remnants of McCarthyism were still alive and well at that time--pacifists, passionate first strike war promoters, and you name it. Many of these people were anathema to most of the faculty and students, but all invited speakers were treated with the utmost respect and courtesy. Any student who would presume to be discourteous to an invited guests would be escorted off premises, not the guest.

But that was in the days when universities still educated, encouraged exploration of all sides of every issue, and required students to think. The content of such programs would be discussed as appropriate in appropriate classes. Student reporters were assigned to cover the events and were expected to write an objective and non judgmental story covering all the bases.

And that is what education should be everywhere.

Makes you wonder what passes for education at U of O these days though doesn't it.

Actually Coulter might NOT "be welcome to speak anywhere else in Canada:"

.... university academic vice-president Francois Houle, who had written Coulter to warn her that Canadian laws make provisions for hate speech.

"Promoting hatred against any identifiable group would not only be considered inappropriate, but could in fact lead to criminal charges," he warned her in the letter, which Coulter quickly leaked to the media.

Canadians are such a humorless bunch.

Sadly... I don't think I'll be able to pass that on to her directly; but I will slip a note to let security know that you've apparently failed to refill your prescriptions...

Come on Haji...

You know what's gonna happen if you don't get back on the cure... you're gonna be walkin' down the mall with your ball bearing coat on again; and you aren't always going to be able to count on their being a Buy 1-get 1 Koran sale, with a free prayer rug at "Muslims Are Us", to pull ya out of it.

No one wants to see Muslim sprayed all over the food court man... It's bad for business and its a BITCH getting you people out of the grout.

Well that's the nature of your fascists... There's nothing less tolerant on earth than the ideological left... It's the most lethal organism on the planetl; seconded, perhaps... to disease, from time to time. But I think, the left took the title in the 20th century; with 150 million innocent murdered... not 100% positive that disease didn't beat' em... but I think the Left took it.

So you're sticking to the thesis that there was no reason for Ms. Coulter's withdrawl from the venue?

Sherlock, the board is lucky to have your insight.

But, while I have your attention, you might want to fire off a nasty note to the following, as a couple have 'mistakenly' have use the word riot!!

"Security at the University of Ottawa scrapped the right-wing darling's talk when more than 2,000 students showed up to protest her telling a Muslim student Monday to "take a camel" as an alternative to flying."

"Last night, I started seeing stuff in my Twitter feed about “#AnnCoulter,” “2000 protesters,” people throwing tables, and even people being whisked to the U.S. Embassy for protection. Ann Coulter was in our nation’s capital, to speak at the University of Ottawa.

I’d seen her speak the night before, in London, Ontario, and like many people across Canada, was wondering what kind of reception she’d get at this next venue. After all, it was a U of O provost, known Frenchman Francois Houle (his real name), who’d sent Coulter that now-famous passive aggressive letter before her arrival, ever so politely advising her not to, you know, advocate genocide or incite violence on Canadian soil.

I expected a problem. I didn’t expect a riot."

"The hate that is burning in the USA right now is due to a 100 year attempt at health care coverage for all Americans especially young adults. Health care in Canada is not just for the wealthy who can afford the rising health care insurance fees in the free market promoted by the conservative right wingers. But then Ann Coulter arrived in Canada to incite a riot."

Coulter wanted to speak at a university where she thinks the average student IQ is 0?

Well, at least she knows her fan base.
