With the way things are now I'm completely unsurprised. And it happened at UC Berkeley, even more unsurprising. Is the college generation completely lost:
I love when either side punks the other side, it's fun to watch how stupid some people are - also kinda scary I saw one video where a guy took the Christian bible and covered it with the Quran and read quotes to Christians, and they were all that is terrible... then he told them the truth, lol
This administration has already raised over 80 million dollars towards the Taliban. Do they need more?
It has nothing to do with the "college generation" (which isn't a fixed group of people anyway). If you suddenly stop anyone in the street and throw unexpected comments and questions at them, you'll often get irrational and ill-considered responses. That's just human psychology. If you do that to enough people, you will be able to pick out the most extreme/amusing examples and misrepresent them as being entirely representative of a given population or community. I'm sure that, like the other people who do this kind of thing, Horowitz is fully aware of this, designing his approach to take advantage of it and generate the most dramatic (and therefore profitable) videos.
Well said... I suspect there was a certain amount of "punking" going on by the students, as the article suggested.... There's nothing to be lost by pretending to play along with what was pretty obviously some sort of gimmick by this guy... Hell, I'm sure most of the Berkeley crowd would say they would donate to the GQP too....
