Hundreds of Yale Law Students Disrupt Bipartisan Free Speech Event

The left has some truly dangerous groups and individuals....

The right has a few non-dangerous groups and individuals (GOP Softball team and Lil Lindsey)..

It's apples vs loaded weapons at the Capitol...

 

Keep up your hatred if that's what suites you.

 

Now stats are hatred. You must be of the anti-science crowd.

 

Eight thousand dollars in damage to a co-worker's brand-new truck because he supported Trump in 2020.

 

If you knew how to prove someone wrong, I'd ask you to do it.

You wouldn't be able to, but it would offer a brief amusement. You like propaganda that tells you what you want to hear.

That doesn't make it true.

 

They support shouting people down because they know that many would still object to their ACTUAL preference; which is, of course, having those that they disagree with attacked and possibly murdered.

 

And long pants cause long legs.

 

Which type of bike lock do you bring to Antifa riots?

 

As I stated previously, I have never argued that being a liberal causes you to become more violent. Logic fail.

 

"What is occurring today does not resemble this recent past. Although incidents from the left are on the rise, political violence still comes overwhelmingly from the right, whether one looks at the Global Terrorism Database, FBI statistics, or other government or independent counts.3 Yet people committing far-right violence—particularly planned violence rather than spontaneous hate crimes—are older and more established than typical terrorists and violent criminals. They often hold jobs, are married, and have children. Those who attend church or belong to community groups are more likely to hold violent, conspiratorial beliefs.4 These are not isolated “lone wolves”; they are part of a broad community that echoes their ideas.

Two subgroups appear most prone to violence. The January 2021 American Perspectives Survey found that white Christian evangelical Republicans were outsized supporters of both political violence and the Q-Anon conspiracy groups."

It's an inappropriate use of statistics.

 

It would seem taking a look at those imprisoned for violent crimes would give us the best idea of the demographic of those committing violent crimes.

 

Hey I already provided you on stats where red states have a higher murder rate.

 

Yale Brand.... were I to go to one that is fighting fa..... see ya there!

 

It used to be that hostility and incivility was confined in general to the mean and ignorant. I see that it remains so.

 

Where do gangs end up that list because that’s where the majority of the violence comes from. You think POC are Right leaning, or do you want play games that since they’re not “politics” they don’t to count.

Next you’ll tell us some “people” started attacking Asians recently The people were mostly POC but who needs details like that?

 

Which you admitted was an invalid argument, "Yet you are making the same invalid argument from the other political side when you point out blue states vs red states." And now because I show prison statistics you accuse me of hatred. Not very neighborly.

 

No I stated one cannot determine if someone is violent based on party.

Your obsession with this is your problem.

 

You need to tell the FBI to wise up!

 

Yale already did explain it for you:

I'll save you some reading (although you really ought to read the whole thing, you might learn a thing or two about free speech) and cut straight to the money quote:

The professor understood quite clearly, something that you seem to not grasp: that shouting down speakers, far from being an expression of one's own right to free speech, is an exercise in denying free speech to others. If the protesters want to express their own views on the subject, they are free to do so. They can even set up a forum and utilize university resources if they so desire, and I'm sure that Yale would provide them those resources. But if their only goal is to prevent opinions with which they disagree from being heard by others (which is what those who are "shouting down" speakers intend) then they fall into the category mentioned above in obstructing or preventing free speech. Even elementary-school-aged children can grasp this concept. Why can't you?

 

It would seem that stats got rules.

 

Another straw man which I've never suggested. Think you're arguing with yourself at this point.

 

I'm pretty sure leftists have shot more members of Congress than "the right".

 

Well, in that incredibly limited category, I'll cannot argue with you...

Can you produce some credible numbers on left/right shooting numbers of short female Lithuanian dentists??

Clearly, when the rest of the country is considered, it's a different, much scarier, story...

 

That's actually exactly what Yale's free speech policy is:
