Young America’s Foundation excitedly announced Monday afternoon that they are sending Ben Shapiro to the University of Missouri. Shapiro is a New York Times bestselling author and columnist, who is also the editor-in-chief of DailyWire.com and editor at large for Breitbart.
YAF mentions that with a lecture he will “confront” the “protesters face-to-face, denouncing their behavior and invading their sacred ‘safe space’ with the raw truth about free speech.”
Fortunately, they have accounted for and are already expecting “protest and disruption.”
YAF’s press release states:
The event is set to take place Thursday, Nov. 19 in the Ellis Auditorium. Conservative leaders from the campus contacted YAF to bring Shapiro after hearing him speak at YAF’s Fall Conference at the Reagan Ranch.
It is questionable if the protesters will be able to handle someone counteracting their ideas from such an individual who says, “I also look forward to microaggressing people through such debate. Toughen up, spoiled children.” But who knows, if the protesters do more than just protest, they may actually learn something.
