Gaze upon the new face of campus horror, if you dare.
Some readers will recognize the grim visage of David Horowitz to the right. Horowitz is the P.C.-hating activist whose personal odyssey from hardcore '60s radical lefty to Reagan-grokkin' conservative agitator has been documented endlessly in his own writings and those of countless other champions and critics.
Horowitz recently spoke to "an audience of about 100 people" at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a campus with about 30,000 students and 3,600 faculty. He was invited by the College Republicans.
According to student-newspaper accounts, Horowitz said "that student organizations like the Muslim Students’ Association and Students for Justice in Palestine are connected to terrorist organizations." Which is another way of saying he was mailing it in.
Yet his very presence provoked a campus hashtag campaign under the name #notsafeUNC.
