Here we go again. Another conservative speaker has been disinvited from speaking at a "tolerant" progressive university. This time, it's Milwaulkee County Sheriff David Clarke.
Clarke, who was initially invited by the University of New Haven to give a talk about forensics (after all, he works in law enforcement), has been disinvited because of "circumstances." Those "circumstances" likely have to do with Clarke's conservative viewpoints, support for Donald Trump and criticism of Black Lives Matter.
From Sheriff Clarke's blog:
We accepted, began planning for the trip — my assistant exchanged over a dozen emails in July about booking flights and hotel. Then a lull — nothing. No communication, no hotel room reserved, no flights booked.
On August 3, my assistant had a conversation with Mr. Malloy, who was extremely apologetic and embarrassed to have to rescind the offer. Apparently, the higher-ups did not want me to speak on campus due to my remarks about #BlackLivesMatter.
What did I say that was so controversial? I’m not sure what specific remarks drove them to uninvite me, but anyone who listens to me for five seconds knows I prefer to drop the “v” and call them #BlackLIESMatter. They terrorize the police, lie about their true mission, promote anarchy like the old Black Liberation Army, and released a list of “demands” that included releasing known cop killers.
So, yeah — I’m going to keep speaking out against #BlackLIESMatter — but apparently that means I’m not going to be speaking about forensics at the University of New Haven anytime soon.
Not surprisingly, University officials are trying to opaquely explain the decision and are ironically claiming the University "fully supports free speech."
Here's a taste of why his invitation was rescinded:

He is pretty much the main reason I remain in Milwaukee County.
There will be no freedom of speech on this campus! The snowflakes can’t handle it.
And God Bless You for doing so!
That would be a welcome change...
Liberals are afraid of ideas different than their own... very narrow minded bunch.
Of course. When Clarence Thomas was getting beat-down by Biden and the other Rats in the Senate, that should have been the wake-up call for blacks. Free-thinking blacks who deviate from the leftist mind-set are immediately destroyed by the Left.
Its the University of New Haven’s loss.Not Sheriff Clarks.
No wonder UNH is known as the University of NO Hope.
Democrats HATE runaway slaves.
Hillary would NEVER ask for these perks.
She knows the suckers would automatically offer them along with the $375,000 fee for a 25-minute talk they've all heard before.
Typical college babies...
Agreed.
Rudy went after the mafia with brutal force even though some stupidly said he’s going after his own people.
Clarke isn’t afraid to say when blacks are in the wrong and is willing to fight and stand up to them.
These are brave men who are hated by the left for their bravery.
The ‘institution learning’ in New Haven is nothing more than a blizzard of snowflakes, RACIST snowflakes. There is nothing tolerant about them, nothing they will be learning from this episode. College kids and institutions of today have been awash in the propaganda of liberalism. BAN ALL SUCH INSTITUTIONS; cut OFF their funds. Sheriff Clark has more important business than to waste his time stroking the feathers of this gaggle of geese.

It’s about 43% White and 35% Black - looks like they have more than their share.
The racism oozes from this left wing faux university.
Very surprising there wasn’t an article in the WaPO and the NYTimes supporting the sheriff? sarc
It's obvious "circumstances" is a code-word for "we hate blacks."
