But Tucci wasn't coming to debate abortion. He was coming to talk about films. The purpose of banning him is NOT to make sure the students don't know what the pro-abortion people think; it is to prevent the scandal of acting as though pro-abortion people are respectable citizens. When a liberal university gives an honorary degree to David Duke, I will consider whether a Catholic university should give an honorary degree to Ted Kennedy. (Although Kennedy is immeasurably more evil.)
Good point, and it makes it even more execrable. Is the place going to ban the best and brightest speaking in say the field of physics or foreign policy because of their views on abortion? Crazy.
