NASHVILLE, March 30 (UPI) -- Members of a youth group with followers on seven U.S. college campuses say their organization is focused on protecting Western civilization.
Trevor Williams and Devin Saucier said they founded a Vanderbilt University chapter of the Youth for Western Culture in order to protect the Western world from corrupting influences and not to promote racism as some of the group's critics suggest, The (Nashville) Tennessean said Monday.
"We're not racists," Saucier, a Vanderbilt sophomore like Williams, said.

Youth for Western Civilization [nat'l Web site]
I wonder why nobody pickets the SPLC or investigates their finances.
Then, when some real conservative youth actually pipe up (the nerve of them!), the leftists instinctively cry "racism!" and "bigotry!"
Expect the race crutch to come out shortly. If it protects western civilization or correctly identifies different groups as primary causes of various troubles, the screaming and character assasination will move full speed ahead.
FYI: YFWC is linked to Paul’s Young Americans for Liberty and Buckley’s Young Americans for Freedom.
The Southern Poverty Law Center and other liberal groups already accused the Vanderbilt chapter of promoting racism.
I notice that this situation is almost always a double-standard. I, myself, consider myself a “culturalist”, as I absolutely find the term “racist” disturbing and I’ve had this term unfairly attributed to me on more than one occasion. I do find it interesting that only caucasians can be considered “racist” and only those of Western values have to alter their lives in order to respect those of other “cultures”, while ours gets hastily put aside for the sake of tolerance. Sorry...but I’ve pretty much had it.
Just wondering how many others are riding on the same edge....
The SPLC IS a leftist hate group.
I do not hate certain people because of their skin tone, I hate certain people due to the values and norms that they carry inside them. Values and norms that accept clitoridectomies, arranged prepubescent marriages, and suttee, for example.
Those people are whack, and I do not want them polluting my country. We are superior to that.
