Campus Jihad: The Rage Continues at USC Ahead of Horowitz Event

After seeing the flyer (sent to him by someone at USC) that I wrote about yesterday, David Horowitz has responded to the radicals at USC on his own blog.

An article that will run in USC’s Daily Trojan newspaper Tomorrow addresses the USC College Republicans’ decision to keep members of the Students for Justice in Palestine and USC Progressive Alliance who wanted to disrupt the event from being allowed inside.

In the Daily Trojan article SJP President Alex Shams, also known as the guy that wrote the e-mail full of nonsense about Mr. Horowitz, expresses concern about racial profiling by the USC CRs. Shams, of course, could never imagine a world in which there were Muslims who wanted to attend the event out of interest, for intellectual stimulation, or because they actually agreed with Mr. Horowitz.

The USC College Republicans have no interest in racially profiling attendees tonight. Why would they? The USC CRs, have Muslim members, and I’m sure believe that not all Muslims want to “stand up and turn their backs” (something the SJP and USC Progs said they were planning, according to the Daily Trojan piece) on Mr. Horowitz during his speech.

So, the SJP and USC Progressives wanted to disrupt Horowitz’s speech, sorry kiddos, you shouldn’t have let the cat out of the bag so quickly. Leftist/radical “activists” have gotten pretty lame. Really, who tells a campus newspaper that you plan to silently turn your back on a lecturer? If you’re going to do it, at least don’t tell the event organizers the day before!

Yesterday I said the “activists” could learn about tolerance and academic freedom from Horowitz, today there’s a new lesson; activism.
