The Dalai Lama Is the Latest Speaker to Cause a Campus Freakout

The latest target of left wing hate- The Dali Lama.

Quote
What reads like a standard complaint from campus activists actually contains a surprising twist. Rather than the usual hullabaloo over Charles Murray, Ann Coulter, and Milo Yiannopoulos, the subject of student ire this Saturday at University of California, San Diego, was none other than the Dalai Lama......

Just goes to show, no matter who you are, there is someone, somewhere, who doesn't like you or what you stand for.

Now, when everyone is finally prevented from doing anything which might 'trigger' someone, the apes will have the planet back, because the humans will be long gone.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

He actually has demonstrators that follow him from place to place. I've seen them. Some very extreme sect of Buddhism.

Recall, the Chinese laid claim to Tibet. The Dali Lama is considered to be counterrevolutionary or something like that.
