Was there, there were not 100 of them. 50 at most.
Didn't hear any chanting either, maybe the writer stayed later after Coulter left, but Coulter didn't hear any chanting.
One of the two people holding the sign described tried to interrupt Coulter with a meek "You're not welcome here". Maybe the lady said "Don't come back" as she left.
Don't know where the reporter gets the exaggerations here. Did they exaggerate it in a campus paper or something that the author read?

She left of her own choice while those that weren't there for the whole lecture were eager to debate her, but denied the opportunity as they hadn't listened to what she had to say. She wasn't booed offstage. The Columbia paper is engaging in yellow journalism, with a touch of red.

"Liberals are not just wrong, but completely, symphonically and perfectly wrong."
The most eloquent spokesperson for our times.

"This is always how liberals argue," Coulter counters. "They make it impossible for a conservative speaker to speak and then say, 'Ha! she couldn't take the force of our logic!' " Precisely! I think I'll convert Ann Coulter to Judaism and marry her ;)

I wonder how these protests would have fared if they were let's say -- anti-Taliban in last year's Afghanistan? They (the shouters) always want some authoritative form of government that doesn't work. Go figure.
Did you see that Harvard student on O'Reilly last night? Typical of a liberal college student. Empty brain starting to fill up with jibberish.

You simply have to admire her courage. Public speaking is incredibly stressful for 99% of us. Getting onstage to argue a point that others might disagree with is bane to almost any politician, despite the preponderance of Law degrees. Getting heckled by one audience member is a harsh experience for even the most talented comedians. Getting 'booed' by crowds is painful, even for athletes and former co-presidents. Getting rushed onstage while your supporters are out-numbered by a 20-1 ratio (at least!) must be terrifying (this happened at least once to Ms. Coulter). REPEATEDLY VOLUNTEERING for that kind of treatment, just to let a few dozen people hear some truth or at least an opposing viewpoint, makes her the bravest American speaker in decades...
either that, or she REALLY gets her jollies by making the Lefties howl. =^)
Go, Ann, go!

Were any of them those 'swarthy males' that Coulter is in such fear of?

""basically acting like infants in front of a speaker.. " ....making her point! After all, isn't this what the liberals do?

In April 2001, conservative pundit and Cornell alumna Ann Coulter 85 was forced to dodge both flying oranges and a Cornell dining employee. Moreover, a contingent from a radical local Indian tribe was on handwearing tattered cloth over their faces and carrying hockey sticksto intimidate conservatives who supported Coulter.
