I would hope that the people who invited Coulter to speak would do the same to every left-leaning speaker that was brought to campus. I understand that Canada is not the United States and doesn't use our free speech laws, but I would hope that Canadians believe in similar ideals. If you don't want to hear what she has to say, then don't go listen to her. Some people wanted to hear what she had to say, so let them.

And why didn't the University prevent the protesters from disrupting the speech, as I'm guessing they would from protesters against a more liberal speaker?

Yawn.....who cares about this horrible woman? You are acting like she is somehow part of the actual political dialog in this country, as opposed to being a comedian and entertainer who gets highly paid for being a a-hole.

If they don't want Ann or Howard Stern speaking at their school, they have a right to protest....just like the tea party.

Tell me, did they have signs with guns on them and dressing her up as a witch doctor?

As opposed to our resident Leftists who are paid nothing for being 'holes.

Coulter has a number of advantages over them:

1. Except when she is obviously going over the top on purpose for satire, everything she says is factually correct.

2. She is genuinely funny.

3. Her humor is based on exposing the contradictions between Liberals' preaching and their behavior.

Lefty humor is limited to mere name calling and lying - it is bitter, but not funny.

Do they have a right to protest? I frequently hear about the "rights" people have when speaking about incidents in other countries. Maybe Canada has all the same rights as we do in America, but its pretty assumptive.

And don't students also have a right to have her on campus? Why do the protesters get to shout her down and waste all that time and money for the students who do care.

Agreed that she's an entertainer, not much more. But is that right if say Bon Jovi comes to campus to play a concert and a group doesn't want him there and shows up with louder speakers and "shouts" down the band? Does that make sense? Or Jon Stewart? Or Rachel Maddow or Keith Olbermann? It's ridiculous that anyone gets shouted down. If you want to protest, stand outside the building and walk in circles holding signs. Don't go in to the event and disrupt it, whether it's liberal, conservative or tea party. It's just a matter of class.

First, my take on Ann Coulter. I regard her as a comedian whose humor I find refreshing. I also think she is getting a little old for miniskirts.

That said, let's look a little closer to home. Has there been any permanent stain on Brown's honor resulting from the destruction of the college paper containing an ad which the student's didn't approve of? Was any serious action ever taken?

I am hesitant to criticize foreign universities while our own house is in disorder.

This is precisely the kind of reaction Adam's Apple Annie tries to gin up from her side. It's called being hoisted up by your own petard.
To borrow from one of Ann's greatest hits, she'll just ask al-Qaida to fly its next plane into Canadian dorms.

Nah,better into a Berkeley or Brown faculty conference.

Well, back in my day the beatles sung "if you go carrying picture of Chairman Mao, then you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow!"......

I'd say the same thing about this scary stickface! If she is your type - good luck, my friends!

If she was the last man on earth I still would not either laugh at his jokes or...you know, I wouldn't attempt to remake the world from our babies....better to let humans die out and start again from the ooze.

So,what Stuart is saying is....she's nearly as bad as rachel madcow.
Laura Ingraham is actually much more sensible than Coulter,but that isn't the point here.Why is Coulter so objectionable when soft headed academics "invite" death row cop-killer Abu Mummia Jamal to give a commencement?
