Anyone who gives such a narrow-minded b*tch a forum for her loony rantings should be thoroughly, and unmercifully, horsewhipped. I'm glad the audience stood up and booed. This needs to happen more often with these lefty loons.

Good. The more the liberal crazies expose themselves to the country, the better. Now all those who attended understand why conservatives say the liberals are nut cases.
Man, liberals must be the most miserable people on earth.
(I feel sorry for the victims in the audience, though. It ruined their graduation.)

she provided no evidence whatsoever for this outlandish assertion.

They never do. There isn't any.

she was widely and repeatedly booed by a stunned audience of parents and graduates.

Worth repeating. I have always wondered where the line was for the liberals. Discouraging that it is so far out but nice to know that they do have one. a.cricket

Any society based on domination supports and condones violence.

Like the political correctness thought police causing nation to rise up against nation with perplexity?

They also never pack up and move to one of the socialist paradises they are constantly blathering about.

It's always easy to be a rebel and disdain the capitalists when someone else is doing the dying and fighting to ensure that privilege. I truly wish I was worth billions; I would buy an island, build a community, send only anti-American, anti-military liberals there to live, give them each a million dollars, build a hospital, let them form their own government, grow their own food, etc., not allow any guns to enter the island, no military, and when some hostile force invades them and imprisons them.....DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Because the terror of unjust killing, which has long been rampant in our land taking place everyday when children are murdered

I know this b*tch ain't talkin' about abortion. What is she talkin about? I don't even want to know. I would just like the opportunity to throw large heavy objects at her.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
Forcing someone to think contrary to their conscience creates hate.
Hate creates violence.
Violence creates war.
The politically correct say they do it to SAVE humanity, but the very thing they say they're trying to prevent is multiplying in strength every day because of political correctness doctrine.
There's more hate in the world today because of political correctness and the thought police than ever before.
This woman was forcing her political correctness on this audience.
she was widely and repeatedly booed by a stunned audience of parents and graduates.

Anytime liberals see the audience's eyes glaze over, while listening to their diatribes, they just throw in something about "the children."

As I was reading this, I was thinking it's a shame that custom of throwing rotten tomatoes at horrible entertainment has gone the way of the dodo.

The "children" thing is straight from Hill and Als playbook.

"hooks' hyperventilating reached a crescendo when she accused the U.S. of "wiping out whole nations and worlds." -There is only world, so it is not clear which "worlds' hooks is referring to - perhaps those that only exist in her deranged mind.

LOL, I can't help it.... I keep thinking of;

IN A GALAXY

FAR FAR

AWAY..

I guess it would be to much to hope that she comes to her senses on of these days and joins us back in reality. :)

Perhaps, it should be revived.

There was a day when a person with such vile ideas would be laughed off her soapbox, rather than granted a podium at commencement.

It was back in those days when being judgmental was considered a mark of discernment, instead of a dirty word.

Bring back the tomatoes!
