When Fascism comes, it will come in the name of “Anti-Fascism”.

Yep.
I’m sure that plenty of armed, law abiding citizens would be happy to provide security.

Can’t remember the term used when conservative speakers on campuses are stopped “for their own good” and “for the safety of the students on campus.” Mob something.

Like April, 2016 at Berkeley and others for Ben Shapiro and Ann Coulter (not my endorsement, just noting it.)

Irony was a police car set on fire upside down, class and dorm buildings with windows broken, and mobs in the streets with signs “No Room For Hate On This Campus.” Funny.

“Theater opted to halt the contract.” Unethical and cowardly. If an event is triggering kids and punks, then kindly ask brave people, such as veterans, to guard the event.

I am not going to hold my breath for the FBI and DOJ to take action.

Not in Cook County...they’d be the ones targeted by the LEOs.

The theater was neutral. The conservatives just wanted to do their event at a theater, so now they’ll have to find another venue. The LGBTQ fascists have struck another blow for thugocracy.

Having patronized the venue, gutless IMO.

Oops! Didn’t even notice that or that it’s Illinois.
You are correct!

Doesn’t matter what you say. Stand up to them.

I agree. It doesn’t help anybody if we allow loudmouthed bullies to silence us.

Cowards like this perpetuate the problem by enabling the scum to dominate them.
