Does UCLA and the other far-left-based institutions that call themselves our country’s colleges ever learn? Will they ever recall that Americans, including National kids, have First Amendment right? Will they ever admit that even those who protest from the public’s plan have a right to be heard and that school administrators, of all people, should honor that correct?  ,

Given the media’s constant taste for authoritarianism, that’s improbable, and UCLA has really shown this still again. The intrepid warriors of the Young America’s Foundation (YAF ), however, are not letting them get away with it.
I wrote an article about how YAF had sued UCLA for thwarting a lesson I was supposed to deliver it on May 15, 2024, titled” Everything You Know About Palestine Is Wrong.” As they allowed me to talk for a few days with the brave people of the YAF chapter, they abruptly canceled the occasion and disingenuously claimed that it had gone as planned.  ,
The best puppies at UCLA had to stop that from happening because I had been scheduled to address an address that was supposed to be open to the entire student system. They made claims about surveillance, and undoubtedly the pro-Hamas crowd marching through campus would have torn me apart if there had been a better chance. To cancel the occasion, however, was to send to the heckler’s filibuster, as well as to promote the political inclinations of the UCLA management and university.
That’s why YAF so filed match. According to James Kerwin, senior counsel for the Mountain States Legal Foundation, “UCLA pretends to care about freedom of expression, but when things get tough, it merely allows one area to have a say.” That is a violation of the First Amendment. This lawsuit will put an end to the school shout-down crowds and prompt UCLA to do what it may have done long ago. Yes. And now that the match is in progress, UCLA might reconsider how to restrict patriotic students ‘ conversation once more. You may consider improper.

The UCLA YAF book, undaunted by its encounter with my occasion being shut down, is bringing Ben Shapiro to school on Monday, Oct. 21. What are the odds that Ben will have the right to speak, in your opinion? According to Spencer Brown, the YAF’s chief communications officer, UCLA is “imposing absurd time, place, and method restrictions on students as a culmination of previous semester’s illegal behavior.”
YAF’s lawyers are n’t standing for it. They fired off a letter to UCLA leaders, stating that “while appearing to review” the Shapiro function, UCLA “has created situations that will significantly undermine its success”. YAF requested “immediate permission to change the day-of-event procedures to address this problem and reasonably ensure a successful occurrence.” This is because UCLA is distributing 1, 200 free cards for a place with 1, 200 tickets. Although that may seem reasonable at first glance, many people who receive a free ticket to an event do n’t actually show up.
Additionally, the YAF lawyers ‘ letter makes note of the fact that” Mr. Shapiro has been targeted in the past by left-wing objectors to his point of view with a method where objectors rush to reserve as many free tickets as they can, with no intention of using them on the day of the event, in a conscious effort to undermine Mr. Shapiro. UNC has no way of knowing how many of the 1,200 cards currently on the market may be seized in poor faith by opponents who have no intention of appearing on October 21, 2024. Additionally, YAF has seen left-wing activists stage walkouts several minutes into an event, leaving large blocks of seats empty” . ,

That happened to me at Stanford University, it’s a tried-and-true communist technique. The top dogs from UCLA have a clear goal:” Mr. Shapiro will speak to a room with plenty of empty chairs, while some hopeful participants are denied entry.”

Brown cited the actions taken by Young America’s Foundation as “UCLA has already shown itself inclined to fraudulently discriminate against traditional and pro-Israel expression.” And here we are afterwards. As liberals are fond of saying, conservatives gonna fash. Liberals detest the ability to express their opinions and to voice opposing viewpoints whenever they can.
Before UCLA stops doing this, YAF might have to report quite a few more complaints. If, nevertheless, America is to succeed as a complimentary nation, this challenge must be fought and won, and the public’s grasp on American universities broken. We should all be appreciative of YAF’s hard work in the trenches right now.
