“Woman and Her Right to Kill” – 1922
Gonzo Historian Robert St. Estephe, author of the indispensible "Unknown History of Misandry" weblog, returns with another entry on the history of violence committed by women, and society's tendency to excuse it and even make allowances. This one will really make your head spin: a 1922 proposal to just make it legal for women to kill, since it was a waste of time to prosecute them anyway. It's amazing how history repeats itself if we don't pay attention.
Why Gillard won’t go
The Australian government is currently run by feminist extremist Julia Gillard, who holds an iron grip on Australia's Labor Party. She has this iron grip despite the fact that her party is slipping badly in the polls. On the face of it, it would seem like Labor should dump Gillard, but Jim Muldoon explains why this is unlikely to happen.
Eleven billion US$ won’t save your marriage
August Løvenskiolds throws a question into the MGTOW ring. If a savvy, monied man can't chose the right woman, what chance does the average man have? And why make it worse by shaming Mr. Average for throwing in the towel when Mr. Ultra Successful gets KO'd in the first round at Divorce Court?
John Birmingham’s big, white dick
John Birmingham has a big, white dick. And he is really, really upset with other people who he thinks have dicks, so he calls them dickless. Then he talks about the privilege his big, white dick brings him, which he is now rightly ashamed of because of "communters" on the internet. Are we clear?
Prone to Violence, Introduction and Preface
Erin Pizzey founded the first nationally and internationally recognized refuge for battered wives in England in 1971. She has two children and two grandchildren from her first marriage. She has written: Scream Quietly or the Neighbors Will Hear, Infernal Child and The Slut's Cookbook. Here she shares with the AVfM audience serial excerpts from her seminal work on domestic abuse, "Prone to Violence".
University of Toronto Stu-dunces Union At it Again.
Dan Perrins gives a review of the recent Canadian Federation of Student's decision to block the formation of men's issues awareness groups on college campuses in Canada. And their declaration that Men's Human Rights Activists "endorse misogyny, sexist, cissexist, heterosexist, and homophobic cis-male-privilege in society."
Who is Emma Claire and why is she so hateful?
For those following the University of Toronto debacle involving Warren Farrell and a gaggle of violent protesters against the human rights of men and boys, we have our first investigative winner.

A Letter to Traditional Women
You want to help men? Grasp what it is like to be one with women like you for five fucking minutes. Then we can sit down and have a little chat.
Some words on Abortion and the MRM
Abortion is highly polemicist, with the mainstay of its opponents squarely on the neoconservative religions right. Socons, as we call them.
Study Reveals Female Rape Victims Enjoyed the Experience
It also calls into question whether the concept of “consent,” where it relates to sexual activity, is antiquated. Indeed it calls into question whether the concept of “rape,” in the literal definition, is just a cultural misconception for a male tendency to fulfill women’s desire for sexual excitement and thrills and women’s collective desire to see this accomplished.
An open letter to Richard Cohen of the SPLC
The Southern Poverty Law Center has placed AVfM and other related sites on a list identifying them as "misogynist" and "woman hating." Paul Elam responds with a letter to the SPLC president.




















Sigh. And so many people ask me now why I no longer associate myself with feminism. *This* is why.
Even if the were nice about it, they would still just be nice liars and self proclaimed victims and parasites.
I’m having a severe physical reaction to that video – the behaviors of the feminists. Their inciting of violence is so extreme…
Lost for words.
Are there relevant people at the university we can send this link to? the police? Surely this video os proof of violent and criminal behaviour that deserves restraining orders.
The only thing missing is the pitchforks and flaming torches. This is a witch hunt as conducted by the witches.
In boxing, you train a specific set of motions over and over, so that when stressed, you default to those motions. It is a matter of survival, as in a very stressful situation, you will stop thinking and simply act. When we become stressed, we revert from the demeanor we choose to show the world, to the one we’ve trained over and over.
This is the real face of feminism. I hope that more and more people can see this and make a choice for themselves who they wish to be associated with.
So that is what feminists look like
So did someone send this video onto the Provo who responded to me that they did not have enough information? Seems to me they should with this.

She did not seem to take me seriously.
Perhaps Dr. Canning. Academic to Academic.
I came across this clip thanks to Dr Miles Groth at Wagner College, who shared it on face book. There can be absolutely no doubt who is acting ethically and in the interests of a fair and open discourse, things that should be taken for granted on a university campus. The restraint shown by the police and attendees ( both men and women) comes into sharp contrast with the verbally abusive and physically confronting and threatening behaviour of the feminist protesters( both men and women). One could not ask for a better illustration of why the hateful and intellectually bankrupt ideology of feminism is past its use by date.
This is not only a great comment, but an apt description of the event itself. I logged in just to give it a thumbs up!
I agree.
Actually, I combined the comment from Scatmaster with Rper1959′s description and forwarded the video and comment to:

I urge you all to do the same.
What grieves the most is the betrayal of the liberty, paradoxically using the liberty, better yet, abusing the liberty. The feminism is like a cancer that sprouts inside of a healthy body, despite deadly, the antibody doesn’t fight back, so this cancer grows until the death. It’s sad witness the twilight of a civilization that took more than two and a half thousand years to build.
As much as this bugs me, we can use this. In a way, it’s gold for the MRM. As long as men look like the reasonable ones, the peaceful ones – we win.
So bring on the violence and hatred, feminism. You are only helping us.
2013 is going to be the year, precisely because you are right.
There is going to be more feminist violence and more of these public displays of hatred, censorship and hypocrisy because there are going to be more MRAs coming out to speak and creating a presence on the college scene.
Warren Farrell is the least of their worries.
Campus feminists are going to be exposed for the hood wearing, cross burning bigots that they are, for the whole world to see.
This is not just speculation. There are plans being orchestrated as we speak. More to come.
How can you not think of this after watching that video?
Hell, even the rhetoric is the same:
“We’re going to take back ______!” (insert appropriate issue.)
The protester of the Warren Farrel talk were worse ie those putting on the talk did not organise “Brown Berets” as a tit for tat measure yet still the protesters were abusive and trying to physically block access. Thats why this and similar videos are so valuable because the contrast in behaviour and demeanour of the two groups is so stark and shows up the protestors for what they really and truly are i.e ignorant bigots.
riverside california? only place i can think of, thought it might’ve been in canada till they mentioned the border issues
I hate Illinois Nazis.
Indeed, the behaviour of the feminists in Toronto is eerily (and frighteningly) similar to these neo-nazi thugs and bigots. In the UofT video there’s a clear moment when the protesters are straining against the cops’ bicycle barrier and the threat of violence is clearly very, very real. I’m quite sure that if it weren’t for the police, some of those men and women attending would have been badly hurt. It’s quite extraordinary watching the men in the video respond to extreme verbal abuse and intimidation with courtesty, dignity and restraint.
Of course, leftie feminists would be amazed to see themselves compared with neo-nazis, because they’re so opposed politically.
What they fail to see is that the ideologies are essentially alike – feminism portrays all women as superior but unjustly made to be eternal victims, oppressed by ‘the patriarchy’ and men.
Fascism/Nazism portrays its group (a nationality/race; usually white) as superior, but oppressed and ‘held back’ by a ‘global jewish conspiracy’, foreign powers, ‘traitors’ etc.
It’s this combination of perceived victimhood and promised superiority which proved so intoxicating to the German voters of the early 1930′s who were told they’d been cheated at Versailles, and were in fact the master-race.
‘The Patriarchy’ is, of course, no more ‘real’ than the illiuminati or any other conspiracy theory espoused by extremist political or cult religions. Indeed, the young woman in the video who tells a young man concerned about the suicide of his two friends that feminism is the answer to his questions, sounds very much like someone evangelising scientology.
And, of course, cults and extremists sit parasitically on older instincts and institutions; whether that be Islam, Christianity, patriotism or, in feminism’s case; the desire to unbound female hypergamy and the frustration at the real-world obstacles to that (i.e. you really can’t have it all).
I’m embarrassed to be a person after watching that.
The worryng thing is that these are supposed to be the future “brains” of society instead they talk and act like characters out of “Idiocracy”! Depressing.
My science teachers all lied to me. Not one of them told me that women hold up half the sky.
“This is what Men’s rights looks like!”
Calm restraint in the face of vitriol, lies, hate and violence. Yes, indeed, that is exactly what men’s rights looks like.
I invite feminists to continue with your campaign of hate. You shine a light upon yourselves brighter than the sun. You expose the truth behind your lies and the facade peels away.
I gather the clip is part of a doco called “Broken” by Steve Brule , it will be screened in Ottawa on Dec 7 th , see http://www.digi60.org , hopefully some of the Canadian supporters of human rights for men and boys will be able to attend.
That comes just after the purported launch of the WRC sponsored “be a man” campaign website designed to add yet more feminist shame blaming to the mix. It is clear that RadFems are upping the ante and doing their utmost (this is of course beyond irony as usual!) to create a very hostile environment on campus for anyone supporting human rights for boys and men,
The only word that comes to mind is blindness.
And now I think they hate religion not because it somehow oppress women, but because feminism is just another type of extremist religion and they are fighting to replace the older ones.
Blindness is exactly what afflicts them. I don’t even blame them, any more than I’d blame the member of any other radical religion who has been forced and manipulated into believing the doctrines of the faith. I really feel sorry for the people protesting because they can’t or won’t see any other viewpoint. Feminism is a religion and they are the blind followers.
Feminism is exploiting victims to whip up this frenzy of hate in a self-perpetuating maelstrom.
Wow…so the people who want to see Dr. Warren Farrell and hear him talk out of sheer curiosity and a desire to see another side of gender issues are “fucking scum” and “rape apologists?” That is bat-shit crazy! I also applaud the guy who was being hurled these heinous, undeserved insults for being calm, cool, and collected. Indeed, one of the best ways to combat these gender ideologues and the feminist brainwashing that occurs in institutions of (and I say this with great reluctance) higher education is through mass exposure.
I think we should be demanding an explanation from the Canadian Union of Public Employees (Government workers), and their support of this protest.
In fact, I think CUPE should have this rubbed in their face repeatedly, and should be characterized as an anti-male hate organization until they retract their support AND DONATE MONEY to men’s rights groups.
After all, they are a representation of the Government of Canada and its employees, and should not be supporting this type of action.
On top of that, their members are FORCED to pay dues and they use the funds to support protests like this. It’s worse than when the Teacher’s Federation members took time off to march in support of OWS-Toronto.
http://cupe.ca/BE_feedback.php
Thanks. Just gave them a piece of my fucking mind.
The Canadian Union of Public Employees have a very nice, very open facebook page…
Fire at will people!
Got a Tweet from Canadian Assocation for Equality ( @equalitycanada ) yesterday morning:-
“the Canadian Federation of Students just voted to condemn our groups. But all this attention has only made volunteer recruiting easier! ”
Just so you know the attempts @ censorship are still ongoing .
One of the bearded manginas looked so much like me that I finally decided to shave and go back to my 1998-2011 look.
lmao – naw keep it and get a job curdling milk in a cheese factory *ducks*
I think, in addition to exposing the true violent face of feminism to the general public, we need to make the political bodies aware of every such incident and demand their reaction.
Public alone, even if they get to know the truth, is unable to do something against feminism – It’s simply gotten so powerful from the govt support that now it doesn’t need to hide behind good looks anymore. So it’s good that they know the truth so that they have no hesitation favoring any govt policy against feminism when it takes place. But beyond that, there’s little we can expect public to do.
It’s also good to send these links for the knowledge of the feminist authorities that are in-charge of the places where such events happen, and ask for their response or action they’re taking to stop such events in future. They most probably won’t respond or at least won’t do anything substantial except saying that they’ll look into it. But they do get the message that they’re wrong and have been exposed. This lowers their sense of self-righteousness a bit.
The real good, if any, can most probably come from the political authorities. As soon as such an event takes place (the iron is hot), demand their comment and stance on it, and any action they’ll take to prevent such things from happening in future. Also tell them that you had informed the concerned authorities and they didn’t respond or make any changes. If you personally attended such an event and felt threatened, say so. They’re YOUR representatives too. This is what they are good for, if any.
Great words Dhanu.
This Broken by Steve Brule sounds very interesting. It could be some great investigative journalism to help debunk myths, like that awesome Harald Lai one from Norway.
These people make me sick.
They hate freedom of speech because they know that once the public starts talking about this stuff their feminasty rhetoric will mean nothing.
Also, why is that one woman bitching about incest? I thought these feminists were all about “staying out of other people’s bedrooms”.
Brilliant video, these mindless thugs in 20 years time will be complaining that they can’t get a date because they are in their mid 40′s I have seen this with my own generation (GEN X). The fact that they can’t get a date will be everybody’s fault but their own naturally.
If we teach young men to screen these vermin out they might disappear in a few generations.
Like my Grandpa told me, time is the great equalizer in the battle of the sexes.
The more we can encourage young men to pull back from women, or least take the dating phase very very slowly the more power young men will have to make informed decisions.
This is why I target 15 to 25 year old males with posters stickers etc, the MRM must offer them an alternative view before it is too late!
Remember the most important thing a man can say to a women is…..NO.
“Remember the most important thing a man can say to a women is…..NO.”
Good poster slogan there!
Sure is, we need get the young males, around five years of age.
The so called education system is infested with feminists and the young males need help.
These are your militant enforcers of this movement. I was told about 15 years ago about how “evil” women in Toronto had little cliques that set up men in bars and inflicted serious social violence on some random and some targeted men. Creepy.
And people wonder why Toronto has such a drastically higher crime rate than the rest of Canada.
I watched it a dozen of times, every time capturing a different piece of this mysandric puzzle.
There was one thing that made me sick; the part regarding the guy who “ignored” the ugly provocations and insults coming from that woman, and asked for police support…well, that man acted in a civil and wonderful way, but at the same time he disturbed me because he had all the reasons to react boldly and to slap that girl, but he didn’t because he also knew that immediately the police would have acted against him.
That feminist knew that those men were behind the fences of a zoo, that she can throw stones at the beasts, and that the only reaction allowed for the beasts, was to look for a refuge.
That feminist knew she had the system to back up her anger and violence.
Paul, thank you for sharing.
I disagree: I don’t think he had a reason to hit her. It was a verbal attack and although what came out of her mouth was vile, disgusting, and uncalled for there was no physical violence that I noticed. I know words can hurt, but as the saying goes “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent”.
Everybody is somebody’s son or daughter even if they are an adult, so violence should only be used as a last resort when you’re in danger. I wouldn’t want somebody hitting my son because it was their personal opinion that they had the right to, unless my son was putting somebody in danger. The guy did the right thing walking away.
I do agree the women there did what they did because they knew they could get away with it. I was there that night, but unfortunately I didn’t have a video camera with me.
I think what pisses me off about this is that if the guy was screaming those same exact things in the woman’s face, she would have been able to slap the shit out of him with impunity.
As a wise man once said, “Sometimes, it takes more courage not to fight.”
“He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day” – another wise man.
Hi napocapo69 and John,
I was the individual who was verbally attacked in the video. I’ve worked a lot with children and youth from age 3 to 18, so seeing a child throw a tantrum isn’t new for me.
There was one redeeming part of the experience. This doesn’t show up in the video, but when I approached the male officer about getting inside, before the verbal abuse began, he didn’t have an answer for me, as they hadn’t developed a strategy yet for discriminating between protestors and legitimate event attendees.
When the girls little temper tantrum began, it was a female officer that immediately became alert, observed the situation quietly for a moment and then ultimately rescued me from it.
Given what some of my life background is, both professionally and personally, I didn’t consider this verbal attack a big deal. There are spouses, men and women, who treat the one person they are suppose to love much worse on a daily basis. Not to say that is widespread, I wouldn’t know for sure, but having a stranger accost me is the least of my concerns.
On the other hand, the fact that this was caught on video is a positive thing. This woman did us all a favour. I’ve had at least one female co-worker who came across the video online approach me to completely disown feminism and give me her support.
This event is a step forward, not backwards.
My write up of my experience is available at http://22to28.wordpress.com/2012/11/20/247.
Be advised, however, I lean more towards being a member of the PUA community than an MRA, so some of the content on my website may seem distasteful to those who are not a member of the community. My apologies in advance if some of my response seems too light-hearted.
As you know, this is not a particularly friendly PUA environment. Whatever our disagreements, though, we support your right to free speech and appreciate your dropping by to share this link with readers.
Mr. Elam,
You’ll notice if you read my material that while I lean towards the PUA side of the equation, largely because it offers a sociological frame with which to understand why MRA is so important, I consider a MGTOW as a viable option, but appreciate what can be learned through the PUA route, although a refuse to be dishonest with women in the process and oddly enough have chosen not to have sex external to marriage.
In light of some of the traffic I’ve received from the MRA direction recently, today I posted a comparison between MRA and PUA as groups and I think the discussion could benefit from any contribution that you would be willing to add.
http://22to28.wordpress.com/2012/12/07/the-manosphere-disconnect-pua-versus-mra/
We know that feminists detest the blue-pill “nice guys” that they’ve cowed, and that they are contemptuous of their own beta-orbiter “friends”.
If any of those poor guys are reading this – are any of your feminist girlfriends actually blowing you? No? They prefer the “bad boys” whom they claim mistreat and misunderstand them, right?
How is that friend-zone working for you?
If you would prefer to score in the endzone than shrivel in the friend-zone, those PUA sites can be a big help. You’ll have to turn in your boner-dry feminist card, of course, but once you are free of their faux friendship, you won’t miss them a bit.
Now, I know Mr. Elam has little love of PUAs, perhaps because such men seem nihilistic and naive to us, and if they accidentally wind up married instead of MGTOW, then their pain will only intensify when the state comes calling to take their families, fortunes, and freedoms away.
But as your understanding of how women actually function (which is much at odds with how they claim they are), you will naturally tilt towards the MRM – especially when your leftovers file a “regret-rape” accusation against you in the days after. The truth is inevitable but the road to that truth can be either hard, or brutal.
Now, if you actually become skilled enough to start fucking feminists (it can take several long minutes to figure out how), you will be rewarded with sight of the teary-eyed faces of your former comrads – the other beta males – wondering why they still don’t measure up to newborn scum like you. So it goes.
I still say you should have given the chick with the blue hair a second look.
Feminism: The movement of women who have missed their chance on capitalising on their sexual peak, attempting to subvert young ‘peaking’ women from doing the same.
This almost made me vomit in disgust and rage. I’m usually a fairly calm person but this just makes me so, so angry. Kudos to those police who held themselves to a high professional standard. I’m not sure that I would have been able to keep as calm as them.
I especially feel for the young man who had lost two friends to suicide. Then the response from those two non-penis bearing bipedal humanoids, I can’t call them women or even female, one not willing to even ask a question because she won’t hear the answer that she wants to hear and the other not accepting his desire to search for answers in the manner that he chooses to.
It makes me wonder if all those young men who gave their lives in the past century to war, so that these creatures can spew their hate and vitriol, are turning in their graves. If the zombie apocalypse happens it will be the remains of those men rising up to silence the puerile childish whining that is echoing through the world today.
A message to the protesters:
You pricks aren’t fighting for equality.
You wouldn’t know what equality was even if it walked up to you, turned around, dropped trouser, and painted your pierced, ugly faces diarrhea brown.
You stand there and try to demonize Dr.Farrell just because he had the good grace to realize that your so-called “movement for equality” is a great big steaming pile of elephant shit.
And in that same, cancerous breath, you verbally attack people who want to hear what he has to say.
You call MRA’s hate groups, when YOU are the one’s spewing hate. Calling anyone who disagrees with you “Rape-apologist, woman-hating, scum”.
YOU are the scum in this scenario. Not Dr. Farrell. Not those who wanted to hear what he had to say. YOU!!!
You are the reason why MRA’s are out here doing what they do.
You make me ashamed of calling MYSELF a college student.
You give higher learning a bad name.
You give equality a bad name.
Fuck your protest.
Fuck your “movement for equality”.
Fuck your misandry.
And on top of that… FUCK YOU!!!
Have a nice day.
Sincerely,
Zarathos022
You are right, they are SCUM…..Society for Cutting Up Men. That is all feminism is. At least some of them admit it. There is the SCUM organization in Sweden, and Australia. They had a conference in Perth last year.
Yeah, I know all about that shit.
That is the face of herd mentality and ignorance. I bet none of them have read ‘the myth of male power’.
They were also (thank goodness) ill disciplined and inexperienced protesters. I find it interesting that the police didn’t arrest more…behave like that in London and they would throw the book at you.
They’re mostly women.
Police are afraid to be seen arresting women, and the protestors know it. You can see it in the smug looks in their eyes.
Yes, I noticed that too.
Look carefully at the young woman who keeps insulting the guy, even after he is entering the door.
Notice that gleam in her eyes?
She is having the time of her life, fully assured that there will be no consequences to her verbal abuse, whatsoever.
Any feminist protests in Cambridgeshire and I will be asking the PCC about the arrest rates if there is discrepancy of gender…the posh Tory bastard who got the role will be hearing from me
Now how do I get the feminists to start protesting?
To get feminists to start protesting all you would need to do is wear a t shirt that said “Men aren’t all bad” and set up shop on any University campus.
The thing about totalitarians is that they are paranoid and have an appeal for police states ( they call themselves Femistasi for christsakes).
Regarding protest tactics. What the feminists want to achieve is intimidation of the opposition while appearing as victims.
Feminism has help from the media and unjust law in achieving these aims.
I don’t know how “amateur” the protesters are compared to England but the protest is more of a PR excercise and I would agree that a video like this really exposes that they fail.
I show this video to people whenever I can and I watch their faces and you can see it challenges their mainstream media fed values and beliefs….it’s like a crack in a wall develop.
My hat is off to the videographer that created this video.
I want Mr. Farrell to come to the University if Calgary and I will go support his right to free speech.
Please come Mr. Farrell…we need you here in this province.
The reaction and the film of it will be awesome.
Tyranny is a danger coeval with political life
Apparently ‘its super duper not fair that teh menz get tah exist on “our campus”!!!’
It’s deliciously lovely how these 20 year old little girls think that they have any kind of authority to claim that the campus as “theirs”.
Mommy and daddy’s money can buy your way into school but that doesn’t equate to you controlling it based on your likes and dislikes.
Taking your little gender studies classes and developing your own putrid brand of feminist narcissism doesn’t entitle you to ownership of shit nor does it make you important enough to decide who can be where at any given time.
Go flash your tits somewhere while you scream about sexual oppression like all of the other good little femtards.
<3 teh RapeyBeatyGuy
That rabid little feminazi looks like a toy poodle barking her head off.
They are bitter, nasty, miserable little bitches that couldn’t attract a decent man on their best day. What else could one gather from this disgusting behaviour? And this is coming from a woman.
They have no spirit or conscience or anything meaningful in their lives. If this didn’t anger me so much, I might feel sorry for them.
The funny part will be when the heteros among them get lonely and decide to “settle down.” I’d pay good money to see those rabid feminazis trying to keep their misandry in check long enough to trick guys into marrying them.
Lord have mercy on any man that ends up with one of those women!!
This was almost an exact re-enactment of “negroes” in the South being physically barred and screamed at by “righteous white folk” for sitting at the Woolworth’s lunch counter.
Only this time it was about gender supremacy instead of racial supremacy. Warren Farrell instead of Martin Luther King. Men’s Rights instead of Civil Rights.
They even had the ugly name calling and Snarling Attack Boys.
The only thing missing were the water hoses.
Yep.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Meredith
http://www.rarenewspapers.com/view/562531
“Meredith was born in Kosciusko, Mississippi of Native American (Choctaw) and African American heritage. He enlisted in the United States Air Force right out of high school and served from 1951 to 1960. He then attended Jackson State College for two years. He applied to the University of Mississippi, but was denied twice.[1]
On October 1, 1962, he became the first black student at the University of Mississippi,[2] after being barred from entering on September 20. His enrollment, virulently opposed by segregationist Governor Ross Barnett, sparked riots on the Oxford campus, which required federal troops and U.S. Marshals, who were sent by President John F. Kennedy. The riots led to a violent clash which left two people dead, including French journalist Paul Guihard,[3] 48 soldiers injured and 30 U.S. Marshals with gun wounds. Barnett was fined $10,000 and sentenced to jail for contempt, but the charges were later dismissed by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals. Bob Dylan sang about the incident in his song Oxford Town. Meredith’s actions are regarded as a pivotal moment in the history of civil rights in the United States. He graduated on August 18, 1963 with a degree in political science.”
50 years ago this year! WOW! Uncanny!
God, I felt like vomiting after this. These women made me feel sick. Physically sick. The worst part is that they’re going to use “patriarchy” as the reason for why the police attempted to disperse them, rather than their own violent and abusive behavior.
Was this taken after the event was cancelled? I find it unusual that the police guided that one guy away by the arm when he was trying to get in the door. Clearly the guards were told not to intervene unless violence started to break out, but it was disturbing to see them stand silently by as attendees were being harassed and asking for help.
Also if I were going to that university I’d go to the dean and demand that women’s studies department answer for encouraging a protest that disruptive.
The University of Toronto Police (employs officers with the power of arrest but not full police powers) probably only had six or seven officers on that night for the entire St. George Campus.
They did their best to keep the peace until they received a back-up squad of roughly twenty officers from the Toronto Police Service. Once they had enough numbers to be effective against the protestors blocking the door, they forced the protestors out of the way and then set up a barrier with their bicycles to protect the entrance.
I got in before most of those waiting, due to the incident seen in the video, but I saw several others who had been waiting enter about 15 minutes after I got inside.
I have to assume that the police worked out a way to get the event attendees inside and keep the protestors out.
The event was NOT cancelled, only delayed for about an hour and fifteen minutes.
It’s stuff like this that should make us realize the value of liberal institutions. Does anyone seriously doubt that we would have the most vicious kind of tyranny on our hands in their absence? It’s no accident that feminists are some of the most vociferous critics of liberalism…
And also religion. Feminism is completely at odds with religion in general because of competing values. In fact, to advance in feminist hierarchy one must renounce religion or at least declare feminist values as superior to religious beliefs.
That the protesters could chant “This is what men’s right’s looks like” without batting an eye demonstrates so well the tyrannical character of feminism. “This” was clearly referring to the police presence and brimming chaos, yet we can say with certainty that the group solely responsible for it was them, the feminists. There wouldn’t have been a police presence were it not for them blocking the entrance to the event and mercilessly harassing everyone who was trying to get in. So what accounts for them making such an absurd claim? Well, did you notice what I had to assume in order to claim that the feminists were responsible for the police presence and chaos? I had to assume that Warren Farrell has a right to free speech and those who wished to see him talk had a right to attend. But to the feminists, this is nonsense; Farrell had no right to speak out in opposition to them, and the attendees had no right to hear him. Looked at this way, Farrell and the attendees were in fact responsible for the police presence and brimming chaos: he had the gall to SPEAK, and they had the gall to THINK he had something interesting to say.
I have to say I really appreciate the female MRA’s that have been commenting, I didn’t know there were so many of you.
