Tucker Carlson's Prep School Too Scared to Let Him Speak on Campus, 'People Could Be Killed'

Tucker Carlson was invited by a student to speak at his high school alma mater, the St. George’s boarding school in Middletown, RI, but he says the administration first gave him the runaround, then flat-out said he was not welcome. They issued all sorts of reasons why over the course of several phone conversations, claiming that he’d bring unwanted media attention, that the students didn’t actually want him, the faculty "hated" him, that he was “embarrassing,” and finally, that it would just be too dangerous.

Of course, the real reason they didn’t want him was because they couldn’t deal with his ideas or the thought of having their worldview challenged.

So, this is how we’re governed now? One doesn’t like one’s point of view, so you kill people? What happend to our Representative Democracy, our Republic? What if we ALL had that point of view, I don’t like you, so I’ll kill you? This is insanity, silencing conservative voices through threats of killing. Anarchy.

If they’re talking about such fear then the problem isn’t him but the violent people making threats.

Exactly!

And nobody is doing anything about them either.

However, if you're on the wrong side of the political spectrum, watch out. They'll invent crimes to nail you.

St. George’s boarding school should have its AISNE academic accreditation revoked.

The violent people include the Communist and Progressive adults who enjoy cancelling other folks and hate first amendment rights

‘People Could Be Killed’

NOT! The school is just trying to keep students in that bubble they live in

The Left is a cult and cults don’t allow dissenting points of view.

Carlson might talk about how the election was stolen. The horror! I see the admin’s behavior more as a mean girls snobbish insult to conservatives.

Ever notice, “comments are disabled” appearing more often?

For years, since long before my social media exit.

More specifically, have others noticed that 'comments are disabled' appears mostly on posts/news with certain subject matter (i.e., Trump, or xiden's mental fitness), especially with certain websites?

I have, but that observation is not scientific and certainly tainted by some bias.

Not a free country.

A country increasingly ruled by terror.
