Nicholas Fuentes, an 18-year-old student who attended the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Va., this past weekend, said that he's received death threats for months over his conservative viewpoints -- enough for him to decide it's time to leave Boston University.

Fuentes said he made the decision to abandon his Political Science degree a month ago after being constantly threatened over his conservative views. He said no longer felt safe on campus, and will not return for the fall semester.

In contrast, if an Antifa student or any other leftwing militant received death threats, I'm sure the university would go out of its way to hire a private security detail for him, or else harangue the Boston police department to investigate every single threat.

Is there anyone who thinks there is common ground with the left?

He’s lucky. In California the professors would just crack his head open with a U-Lock.

The Left assumes the likes of the Jacobin Reign of Terror.

Maybe he could try Hillsdale College. That sort of Leftist crap does not occur there.

Nicholas Fuentes may earn a degree at some other university, but he may have trouble getting a job after going on national TV and the internet proclaiming his White Supremacy.

He should Sue the University for not providing him a safe environment for learning.

And then who is going to want to hire an avowed White Supremacist?

Yet in spite of stories like this, the media, the Democrats, and even most Republicans deny a moral equivalence between Antifa-type thugs and the Klan.

They were a socialist movement then, and they are a socialist movement now. Mass brutality and murder is part and parcel of their ideology.

Ironic, isn’t it. Universities talk about “safe spaces” where liberal students can hide from the “microaggression” of being exposed to conflicting political beliefs. But when a (conservative) student’s life is threatened, they have no interest in providing an actual “safe space.” Maybe he could have gotten help by pointing out that death threats are a macroaggression?

He's an idiot kid who doesn't know the first thing about Conservatism. If he did, he wouldn't have marched with Nazis.

Submit or Die

That’s the ultimatum from the left.
Think how we want you to think, believe in Gore-Bull warming, abortion, flooding the country with foreigners, embracing all things gay and transgendered or die.

After you get out of BU, get a good lawyer and sue them blind.
