Dave Rubin of Turning Point USA brought his free speech message to the University of Massachusetts and faced a respectful and engaged audience. Then he went to the University of New Hampshire and, well, this happened:
Here's Turtleboy:
Anyway, like I said, these people are the reason Trump will win again. It’s a foregone conclusion at this point. As a political moderate I’d like to see a good race. But the fact of the matter is that videos like this and Trigglypuff are widely seen and distributed by millions of people. They see what college campuses have become, and they want to vote for whoever these people don’t want you to vote for.These people are trapped in a collective form of insanity. All Rubin is trying to say is that hate speech exists, and it sucks, but there's nothing the government can do about it. It just never occurs to them (well, maybe that rambling girl got it) that subjective laws designed to constrain speech you don't like can be turned around to constrain speech you do.

The funny thing here (well, maybe not so funny) is while all this happened, UNH administrators were lecturing kids on... not wearing sombreros and ponchos for Cinco de Mayo. Essentially: we can't do anything about it if you do, but we really really wish you wouldn't.
As near as I can tell, they've been silent about the attempt to disrupt and block access to the Turning Point presentation. Which (unlike wearing sombreros) is an actual violation of the UNH Student Code of Conduct. It's a funny old world up here.
This is my alma mater. I won't give them a fucking dime.
