Overkill in my book. College kids are scared of different opinions.


Case in point. My best friend of 26 years passed away last year in a car accident. His step-sister, a super liberal, went to UF while he and I both went to LSU. They first met when she came to LSU for the LSU vs UF game in 2007. Anyway, at his funeral last year a group of us, including his cousins, fiance, parents, and step-sister decided that we were going to make a trip to an LSU game this year and we decided on the UF one because of the significance for his family.

When I was buying tickets and finalizing plans, a couple of months ago she said that refused to go because UF was allowing Richard Spencer to speak on campus and she "can't support a university that would allow him to speak" and she wants to have "no association with UF any longer."

Richard Spencer has done what George Lincoln Rockwell, Revilo Oliver, Richard Butler, Willis Carto, William Pierce and David Duke could never do -- keep his name in the media 24/7. (All of these guys, for those who don't know, were prominent neo-nazi/white nationalists in the 60's-00's).

And we can thank Trump for that. Without the left going batshit crazy over the "alt-right" during the election, no one would know who Spencer is.

Or it could be that Spencer is a leftist and/or deep state plant like many of the other so-called alt-right leaders.

Well, considering he was an Occupy Wall Street organizer and a Bernie Bro up until november of last year, this is an absolute certainty.

Spencer is nothing but controlled opposition, a manchurian foil of what New York liberals imagine a white supremacist should look and sound like.

Honestly. Anyone who doesn't recognize that the people who create the need for this are 100x worse than Richard Spencer.

Anyone who can't grasp this, you're a moron and a danger to America.

Spencer knows what he's doing. Let's not pretend this isn't exactly what he wanted.

Suing schools who won't give him a venue to speak.

Sending his cronies into local establishments to stir shite up prior to his event.

I hope all 2 dozen KKK members, every Nazi, every white supremacist, and every member of Antifa, BLM, and the Black Panthers go to Florida for this. Then we only have to do one thing to help our country ...

Doesn't cause an emergency.

The people who go there looking to whip his arse or his supporter's arse cause the emergency.

Otherwise, it's just some a-hole talkin

A speech that cost around $500,000 in security does have consequences. If 800 people go to the speech it will cost around $625 per attendee.

That is a bad consequence
