Liberals Threaten Conservative Student Organization Over Ben Shapiro
Why are Liberal snowflakes so afraid to let Ben “Facts Don’t Care About Your Feelings” Shapiro speak? It’s bad enough they aren’t able to tolerate being exposed to ideas and opinions that deviate from their propaganda; now they are using threats to try to stop others from hearing the truth.
Conservative campus group Young America’s Foundation, also known as YAF, sponsored an appearance by Shapiro this past Thursday at George Washington University. Prior to the event, Liberals on campus made a threat against YAF that said, “HEY YAF, GET SECURITY.” The thinly-veiled threat was clearly meant to imply they’d need security to protect them if Shapiro spoke at the university. For all the crying Liberals do about being victimized, they don’t seem to have any problem at all doing the victimizing.
YAF’s official position on the matter is that they “will not be intimidated by leftist bullies.” They are refusing to give in to threats and fear, but they shouldn’t have to stand alone on this matter. This is a university, and a threat was made, so it’s their moral, ethical, and legal duty to investigate and intervene. What did George Washington University do instead? They dismissed the threat altogether.

In a shameful display of bias, university official Cissy Petty had the nerve to release the following statement:
“I believe in the value of free speech, respectful dialogue and civility. GWPD does not see a threat and will be at the event. I respect students having the choice to bring Ben Shapiro. Having voted for both parties, I am grateful for freedom of choice.”
In other words, she respects their freedom of Liberal students to threaten Conservative students without repercussions. Yes, the university is supporting the event, but that’s not enough when a threat is made.
