Milo Yiannopoulos at Rutgers University:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsooaGZsxjE

I haven't watched it yet, but I am curious because this is where Milo triggers many students.

It's ridiculous.  He's had many uni's ban him, censor him and pull out of hosting the event.  No platforming destroys freespeech.  See Sargon's take on all this.

Link?

It seems that many speakers have been censored by colleges and universities. Ben Shapiro recently had his invitation canceled at CSU-LA due to allegations of 'hate speech'. He ignored the allegation and cancellation and gave the lecture anyway:

He is clearly upset about Political Correctness, funny (or rather sad) how some students set off the fire alarm to interrupt his speech.

Just youtube Milo or Sargon and follow the trail.  You can also see Milo's dates on his tour webpage and he notes from which places he's been banned/cancelled.

There was another university where protests got out of hand during the tour - can't recall which one, though.

Rutgers Students Hold Group Therapy Session After Milo Yiannopoulos Visit:

Students at Rutgers University were so traumatised by Breitbart Tech editor Milo Yiannopoulos’ visit to their campus that they had to hold a group therapy session, campus newspaper The Daily Targum reports.

Oh what a robust society the west has created.  It's like some kind of nightmarish joke.

I watched the speech yesterday. I am considering suing Milo for giving me a trauma.
