After weeks of pro-Hamas campus riots, Robert Spencer, the director of Jihad Watch, was due to speak to the UCLA chapter of Young Americans for Freedom with a talk titled “Why Everything You Know About Palestine is Wrong”.
Going in, we knew that UCLA would do everything possible to stop the talk even as Hamas supporters were holding Nakba Day ceremonies commemorating the failed Muslim effort to exterminate the Jews.
After UCLA campus police had failed to stop violence against Jewish students and protesters in previous weeks, the David Horowitz Freedom Center had provided Robert’s security (because we knew campus security would do nothing) and we had people, including me, prepared to go out to be at the talk.
And then at the last minute, it was shut down.
While the doors were supposed to open at 5:30 PM, they were instead locked. UCLA wanted the event to go somewhere else, anywhere else, after threats and lies from terror supporters.
My admiration for @_WeinbergMatt and his colleagues at @uclayaf has no bounds. They have to deal with these neo-brownshirts every day. https://t.co/tlm0PlfxtU

As expected. @UCLA and other universities today are not institutions of higher learning; they are radioactive wastelands of hard-left indoctrination. https://t.co/xEIPKNqoDs

Local pro-Hamas groups had spread the same discredited lies about Robert Spencer and claimed credit for the cancelation.
But the bottom line is that UCLA had once again made the decision to choose leftists and Islamists over free speech. And after weeks in which the Left pretended to champion free speech, they went right back to suppressing it.
“At @UCLA radical protesters are allowed on campus but not civil students listening to a @yaf speaker in a room that was appropriately reserved in advance. This is a violation of their Constitutional rights. We beat the UC System before & will again. See you in court!” Scott Walker, the head of the Young America’s Foundation, tweeted.
Unbelievable. Administrators at @UCLA cancelled the use of a room reserved by students for a @yaf lecture while these protesters were unobstructed on campus. Conservative students – who follow the rules – should have the same rights as the radical students. See you on court. pic.twitter.com/3EQY5hufXO

The David Horowitz Freedom Center has unfortunately seen this same game played out before on campuses.
It took a lot of legal battles until universities stopped blocking conservative speakers, but in the wake of the Hamas riots, they’re going back to the same tactics, claiming that conservative events pose too much risk and introducing technical objections that never seem to show up at leftist events.
But the David Horowitz Freedom Center will continue to do our part to uphold the truth on college campuses.
The UCLA chose terrorists over truth, but the truth must be heard.

is the new norm to jail any election dissention with no trial or charges? reminds me of how the nazis implemented their dissention programs. even better example is how our schools of higher education deal with dissention. this is from our greatest thinkers. go figure. our greatest thinkers have embraced the nazi program of dissention elimination by force. seems like one of them could come up with a better idea than killing off the other side. sounds neanderthal, “me right. you wrong. me kill you.” where have all the great minds gone. It must be the covid talking, or maybe we could just add it to the trump charges. yeah, all of our greatest minds have gone neanderthal because trump bought a hoe.
even more depressing is the fact that real people in our country think our greatest minds neanderthal think is their path to civil enlightenment.
im yearning for some southern civility right now, and some hillbilly problem solving.

Congress needs to pass a law that cuts off all federal funding to colleges and universities that refuse to allow all speakers forum on campus. If they choose to disrespect the First Amendment and the Constitution they do not need support form the federal government.
The March Hare says
The house could pass that bill, but the senate would ignore it.
T100C1970 says
Chuck Schumer pretends to be Jewish like Joe Biden (and Pelousy) pretend to be Catholic.
DrLarry says
That the truth can not be told publicly, and how hard the Left fights to prevent it being told, is just more evidence of the hypocrisy and evil of the Left.
Domenic Pepe says
What a disgrace …
UCLA administrators are as depraved and psychopathic as Islamic lunatics and their supporters.
junkyard infidel says
Of course they did. Because they’re COWARDS!
The March Hare says
No, they are leftists also.
Steve Chavez says
Isn’t this what the ACLU fights for? They’re neutral and for Equal Rights… right?
Imagine if a Black, Muslim, Gay Leftist personality was cancelled or banned for “speech deemed hateful.”
Jeff Bargholz says
That would ban any speech Bareback Hasbeen Osama ever gave for us to sleep through.
John Galt says
No, the ACLU does not fight for equal rights unless you are a member of their protected class, i.e., marxist, extreme leftist, islamist, antifa or blm. Once they actually did represent free speech for everyone, but that has been long gone.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, I think John Wayne and Ward Bond went to UCLA. Damn, timers have changed…….for the worse.
Jeff Bargholz says
Good on you Greenfield, for showing up to watch Spencer’s back in the heart of evil.
I wish I’d been there. I would’ve ripped that Paki looking islamopithecine’s head off and shoved it up his skinny jeans ass. I love my gay brethren but punks like him push that love to its limits. At the very least, I’d have beaten him into a near coma and made him sing the Israeli national anthem in an operatic falsetto, not that I know what the lyrics are. I don’t even know the American ones past the title. I would’ve just made up some lyrics for him to screech. Ones about Jews uber alles and Mohammad as a pig-boy pedophile. Anything to make him suffer.
I keep hoping to run into somebody like him here in Sunny San Jose.

As an American born Jew who believes in Jesus and is a stronger Jew because of this as well as staying in training. Ok I dipped 3 ganja chocolate chip cookies into coffee followed by a mini pumpkin pie I got from WallyWorld, not my normal diet or I could not stay in training. still doesn’t make me anything but more of a stronger senior citizen and 70 and I assure you I would take that smart ass flagrantly ignorant punk away from witnesses, I’d have Jeff B watching out for anyone to see and show him YHVH and YESHUA and he will see HEBREW people in a light he has never seen before: YHVH’S LIGHT – and this will happen, As I am not a violent man. I abhor violence. My heart has been torn since October 7, 2023 and the resulting global antisemitism that gets all the media attention vs the pushback and the vocal majority who abhor violence, genocide, antisemitism and all racism and the ones who know they cannot be Christian without recognizing Lord Jesus Christ was and IS still a JEW! This undisciplined, unschooled and ignorant asswipes sucking on whether trillionaire globalists funding this demonic satanic global coup d’etat we are in and the out-to-lunch brains untrained and ignorant, but not unable to learn truth and reality. Other than that the satanic agenda is 1933 All Over Again https://youtu.be/y8Ikk2ekdKs?si=LN3oAE17s9SBmEcH And I urge my Jewish brethren and all my brethren to stay trained and connected to YHVH and YESHUA and we will defeat this foe and the satanic plan at foot which is Bible Prophesy. Meanwhile, I stand with Jeff B but I get first shots bro!
Jeff Bargholz says
Be as violent as you want to be, brother. They deserve it, just don’t get caught.
Ganja chocolate chip cookies dipped in coffee? sounds good but I couldn’t eat those things in the morning without destroying my motivation for the whole afternoon. My girlfriend smokes pot every night and I warn her not to let us do it in the mornings of our sleep overs but……maybe we should. We could spend more time together that way. 🙂 And they sell ganja snacks here in California.
And those Wallyworld mini pies are good. They went up from fifty cents to seventy nine cents here under Bidenflation, though. But they do have a few new fillings, like strawberry cream, which is good.
You must be from California, too.

Interesting article about UCLA:
UCLA’s Mostly Peaceful Counterprotest
Jeff Bargholz says
What a lying load of shit. If only it were true, the country would be a much better place..
Taki’s Magazine is even less believable than CNN, which means it’s nothing but anti-American and retarded lies.

Time to call the Right kind of Lawyers and bring big Lawsuit against all of UCLA University Bolshevik scum suckers should be made to pay
