Lesbian activists at Smith College riot, shut down Ryan Sorba speech on “The Born Gay Hoax” as..
MassResistance ^ | April 29, 2008 | daniel hamilton

Posted on 05/02/2008 5:10:06 AM PDT by daniel1212

Dozens of lesbian activists at Smith College climbed in through windows and stormed the podium in a riot scene shortly after Ryan Sorba began a speech on his upcoming book, The Born Gay Hoax. The melee forced an end to the speech before a packed hall in the library on the Northampton campus. Uniformed police officers and a plainclothes security guard were in the room but mostly just stood and watched. Rather than take action against the rioters, the officers and a university official walked to the podium and ordered Sorba to leave the room “for his own safety.”

Just another example that the homosexual idea of tolerance is a one way street. While acceptance of the deleterious practice of homosexuality is demanded, nothing may be said that negates the justification of it. Which even a "gay gene" would not.

Nothing nastier than a band of pissed-off lesbians.

I get it now. Universities are "refuge cities" for those unable to grasp reality.

I have absolutely no tolerance for the gaggle of homosexuals who keep shoving their perverted countenances in our faces!

They are recruiters and like the socialist/communists, they're after our children!

Why bother even showing up to "work"? I think the author should sue the College for failure to provide proper protection.

About 5 years ago I attended a wedding reception at Smith College. There were several very serious looking females in attendance at this reception. I can just imagine how scary this really must have been for those attending this event. Scorned Lesbian Attack!

Been this way for a LOOOONG time. Not only for those unable to grasp reality, but also for those who either consciously or unconsciously understand that they don't have what it takes to compete in that real world.

They later imprisoned him "for his own safety", but when the rioters marched to the prison to continue their protest, the officers and university officials had him executed and beheaded. Sorba's head was placed on a pike before the rioters who tossed bags of excrement at it. All of this was for Sorba's own safety.

Safety first!

Reminds me of that piece I read in a freshman lit class about the man who had "gone too far." It concludes, "and no one has gone too far since."

For some reason, of everything I've read, that goofy, cryptic piece has always had a spot on a dusty shelf in the very back of my brain.

That, and this line (from a different piece, entitled "Paranoia"): "You close your eyes and all you see are breasts." That's not paranoia.

What’s the big surprise?

Liberals don’t believe in the Constitution. Freedom of speech is something abhorrent to them and their minds are closed to new ideas.

I have often wondered if liberals were inherently evil or just born stupid.

Mass paranoia is what the young gals with breasts, mouths and big eyes did have, and the officials gawked thereat, metaphorically.

Don’t fear the university president is taking care of things. To make up for a speech that was not allowed here is her plan located at the bottom of the story.

At 8 p.m. tonight, at the Academy of Music, Smith is offering a free public screening of Freeheld, the Oscar-winning documentary by Cynthia Wade ‘89 that chronicles a lesbian couple’s struggle for legal and property rights. It stands in contrast to Mr. Sorba’s views of a “born-gay hoax” – and both perspectives, whether one finds them compelling or offensive, fall within Smith’s commitment to free expression of ideas and values.

College professors who train teachers give a low priority to skills like keeping order and training politeness.- Research firm Public Agenda

50% of American college faculty identified themselves as Democrats and 11% as Republicans (33% calling Independent, 5% another party) 72% described themselves as “to the left of center, including 18% who were strongly left. Only 15% described themselves as right of center, including only 3% who were strongly right.”. - NAASS survey of students, faculty and administrators at colleges and universities in the United States and Canada, 1999 by Angus Reid (now Ipsos-Reid)

College students spend over $5.5 billion a year on alcoholic beverages (mostly beer)—more than they spend on all other drinks [soda, tea, milk, juice and coffee] and books combined. - Sidney Ribeau, President Bowling Green State University http://www.collegevalues.org/diaries.cfm?id=476&a=1.

The universities were taken over by the totalitarians a long time ago. Now we no longer have academic freedom. The effects on our society will be toxic.

Our chances of preserving our freedom in this country are running out.

I truly believe they are “born gay” and that there is a “gay gene”. Look at their behavior! No normal people behave this way. Only people with birth defects must truly behave this way. (and I do mean both being filthy disease ridden queers AND rushing through an open window to cause a riot!)

I get the feeling that if a bunch of conservative students had done something similar to a gay activist speaker, the cops would have busted heads, if not opened fire

Even if a “gay gene” is ever found, this does not justify acting it out, any more than we can justify iniquity because we are born with a strong proclivity to sin. God gives grace (at least initially) to resist sin (Gn. 4:7), and can grant repentance, but the typical homosexual seeks to justify sin, rather than turn to Christ from it. As they know that the Bible is the ultimate authority, they go to great lengths in vainly seeking to negate the Creators wise injunctions against it. Which are for our own good. http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/homosexual_refuted.html

Sexual deviants will not tolerate any that oppose this disturbed behavior. The rioting and violent opposition is not unlike pedophiles that are often violent with victims that oppose them.

Nope, they're not born gay. In fact, the joke at Smith College is that some number of them are LUGS (Lesbians until Graduation), or as I heard so succinctly put about a women's prison; "Gay for the Stay".

While male homosexuals like to talk about feeling like they were 'born gay', most lesbians proudly say theirs was a political decision as a rejection of the patriarchy. Or in the case of some lipstick lesbians, they'll do anybody, male or female.
