“When alleged white nationalist Jared Taylor took to the podium, . . . before him sat nearly 40 attendees . . . . Also sitting before Taylor were nearly 40 empty seats.” So begins the article in the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel about a talk I gave on March 27. Perhaps the author didn’t know that the event had been elbowed into a room with only 80 seats, that the tickets had been quickly snapped up, and that many people had deliberately taken tickets they would not use to make the attendance look meager.
The Sentinel went on: While I spoke, a campus-wide outdoor party “in response to Taylor’s rhetoric” was in full swing, with “three food trucks . . . a mechanical bull, volleyball and football activities on the grass, students cooking burgers on the grill, and a stage with a DJ set loudly blasting songs like Green Day’s ‘American Idiot’.” The Sentinel forgot to mention the moon bounce — yes, a moon bounce — along with the beanbag toss, with which students eloquently refuted my arguments. Nor did it mention that the food and rides were free, and that the “unity party” was deliberately timed to draw students away from my talk.
After I spoke — full video here — local television interviewed a young man from the audience who said he had wanted to ask a question but that men had threatened to kick him out of the room “as soon as I opened my mouth.” In fact, I answered three of his questions, but he bobbed up and down, hogged the mic, and was such an ass, campus security threatened to eject him............more........
