And what did Horowitz have to say? He reiterated his claim that many Muslim Student Associations have ties to Al Qaeda. He also asked a student wearing a kaffiyeh(Palestinian male headdress),why he was wearing a "terrorist headscarf.”
Ross Nolan, the student who introduced Horowitz and sponsored the event, wrote a letter to our daily paper after the event, defending his choice to bring Horowitz and bashing on those who got offended:
"The radical leftist professors on our campus who spew anti-Americanism daily do have this power, and they all too often abuse it. They get away with slandering all that I believe in, and no one cares. Horowitz takes on radical Islam, and all hell breaks loose."
If you want to get involved with a the Free Exchange on Campus coalition that Campus Progress is a part of, check out their site. They combat a lot of the work of Horowitz' team.

I remember when David Horowitz came to talk at U.C. Berkeley. I was in the front row when a shouting match broke out - and then David left the event.
