Arrest Made at Coulter Speech (You won't believe why!)

http://www.dailytexanonline.com/news/2005/05/04/TopStories/Arrest.Made.At.Coulter.Speech-947529.shtml

Coulter said she supported the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman on the basis that a good woman civilizes and inspires a man to strive for something better, leading to a question that was met with a stunned silence.

"You say that you believe in the sanctity of marriage," said Ajai Raj, an English sophomore. "How do you feel about marriages where the man does nothing but fuck his wife up the ass?"

UT Police officers approached Raj to arrest him, resulting in a mass exodus of protesters chanting, "Let him go."

"The person had been disruptive the entire event," said Matt Hardigree, former Student Events Center president. "He took the opportunity to say something lewd and offensive and then made masturbatory gestures as he exited."


:spray:

I'm surprised she didn't have a smart-ass comeback for him.

...she doesn't have one.

Or at least the ability to break away from her carefully prepared script, at least.

...doesn't apply here!

fanthom people wasting money on that trash!!

This has to be the first time I've ever wished I was in Texas.

$30k for this hate monger??? This is not coming from "student activity fees"....

If we could get an Ajai Raj avatar I would add it proudly to my posts.

As for saying something "lewd and offensive", with ann coulter as the guest speaker you'd be hard pressed to hide behind that shield. I guarantee if she opened her mouth something "lewd and offensive" came out at some point. For example, "...a good woman civilizes and inspires a man...", as if the woman is there to serve the man and she needs to "stay in her place".

...For example, "...a good woman civilizes and inspires a man...", as if the woman is there to serve the man and she needs to "stay in her place".

The only thing she inspires is HATE!!!

What's the woman getting out of it?

Besides demoralization and incivility?

I thought what he said was fairly dumbassed, in the presentation and lack of balls to wait for a response. This is pure fodder for the right-wing to say that so-called 'progressive' young people are idiots. This guy actually had the chance to ask a real question and document what a lame response was given. Instead he chose to make a comment that I still dont' get. I think it was a dumbass 'question'. As for the whole disturbing the piece charge (intentionally misspelled), he didn't quite shout Theatre in a crowded fire, did he?

Did you read his letter about the situation? There were plenty of people asking "normal" questions and the skank just blew them off with her typical vitriol, it was only when Raj stepped DOWN to her level and asked a legitimate question at that level was she stopped in her tracks. Far from being an "idiot" this guy beat her at her own game and she had no reply. RWers don't DO reasoned debate, they use lies and venom and when you take them on on their own shitty terms how quickly you find out how full of shit they are.

You want to cower away from confronting them go ahead, but your stance will get you exactly where we are, out of power and patiently "waiting for a response" so you can "document what a lame response it was", now THAT's a "lack of balls".

Cheney gets at their little chats:

.........Incessant heckling and shouting culminated in an arrest Tuesday night during a speech by Ann Coulter, an extreme right-wing pundit, at the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library and Museum.

Shouts became so pervasive during the question-and-answer session that Coulter informed the organizers she would no longer take questions if the hecklers were not silenced. For a time, the shouts were considerably lessened, until the issue of gay marriage was broached.

......Coulter said she supported the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman on the basis that a good woman civilizes and inspires a man to strive for something better,

reading stuff like this about Distortion Whore Coulter--they're extremely amusing. I just love how these protestors and anti-Ann people are there to heckle the shit out of her--Bravo!! I notice she never comes west to L.A., San Francisco, etc.--wonder why?? I guess she's afraid that someone would actually come out and kick her scrawny sagging right wing ass! (And we would too).

someone at Kos was there, and protested the arrest

...The police (who were there in full force that evening to protect Coulter from the fatal threat of banana creme) had taken the questioner by the arms when he attempted to leave the auditorium after signaling to his friends that he was leaving. Two officers grabbed him and with an undeniably excessive amount of force pushed him out of the very same auditorium that he was exiting on his own......

All the shit comes out her mouth.

Anyway, this is much better than throwing a pie.

<snip>

It was in response to Coulter's bizarre explanation that marriage was in place not to "make people happy," but to further an outright incomprehensible notion of some type of patriarchal system that she wasn't able to articulate very well (she mentioned something about men caring for women uber alles, but offered little more of substance) and eventually abandoned to get to her point that gay marriage is evil. It was after this that a question was posed "What about marriages where men just fuck their wife the ass?"

Some in the audience laughed. Some quite probably rolled their eyes. I myself was a bit taken aback and left wondering if the questioner couldn't have expressed himself differently before he sauntered away from the microphone.

And, then, I heard a cry: "Hey! What are you doing? Let him go!"

Friedman stumps with a stogie
Kinky's quixotic quest for governor starts with UT campaign stop
08:25 PM CDT on Wednesday, April 20, 2005
By ROBERT T. GARRETT / The Dallas Morning News

AUSTIN – Humorist and gubernatorial candidate Kinky Friedman wandered around the University of Texas campus Wednesday, a walking cloud of cigar smoke that was part vaudeville, part news conference, part campaign stop.

<snip>

About 30 people tagged along as Mr. Friedman walked some 200 yards among UT campus landmarks, pausing regularly to relight his trademark cigar. Six young admirers – all male – also fired up stogies.



Ajai Raj, 19, an English major from Plano, was one.

"We're almost raised to be cynical," Mr. Raj said. "It's refreshing to see a candidate that has a real voice."

Mr. Friedman, scorning politicians, predicted that they will feel "shivers up the spine" after he shocks the establishment by getting on the ballot and winning next year.

If so, he's pretty cool!


Busted
By: Ajai Raj 04.18.2005

Let me begin by saying I had a pretty restful spring break. Nothing exciting- funds were low all around, and no one I knew could afford a road trip, so I went back home, hung around my house wearing boxers and aviator sunglasses, and smoked joints in the backyard. I hung out with a few old friends, and come Friday night, I headed back to Austin where I looked forward to a night of mid-grade revelry and sleeping in my dorm bed.

The Pigfucking Establishment had other plans. My roommate and I were awakened at 3 A.M. by two grinning Austin Police Department officers and a greasy-haired fat fuck of an RA who gets his jollies by hanging around with his thumb in his ass until he smells marijuana so he can inform the Justice League in exchange for a free raffle ticket. No shit— as the cops cuffed me for having an ounce of grass, this fucker got a chance to win a free microwave. Or to suck off a sheriff, as far as I know or care.

I would go on at length about the bust, but let’s suffice it to say that I was too tired to think, and thinking is essential to prevent arrest. This will not happen again. On my way out, I passed by my friends Jeff and Nick. This proved fortunate down the line.

I was led in handcuffs into a waiting room full of crazy yelling degenerates, wife beaters, whores, thieves, and contemptible crying cunts whose lives were obviously over because they had been led to a police station. Over the next several hours, my clothes were taken from me and replaced with black-and-white striped pajamas, my balls were fondled by leering criminals posing as representatives of justice, and I got the opportunity to sleep in awkward positions in several exciting locales. I was told I would wait for a short while to move on to the next stage of the process, and then made to sit around for hours while eavesdropping on conversations about armed robberies and vehicular assaults.

When me and the motley members of my cell block were led in front of a judge, I learned that, according to our “justice” system, a straight-A college kid holding a bag of weed is as bad a criminal as a guy who beats his wife and kid. I learned that in Texas, a cop can decide to arrest you for no reason at all and you can sit in jail for 72 hours before you’re even charged with a crime. I learned that, in Travis County jail at least, you get as many phone calls as you like—as long as you’re not calling a cell phone or a landline outside of Travis county. And you can call any one of a number of bail bondsmen to help you out with your $1500 bail, except that half the numbers don’t work and the other half will be answered by assholes who won’t help out anyone under 21. I learned that every single cop in this God-forsaken county thinks he’s the King of Shit Mountain, and that they missed their chance to be comedic wunderkinds. It takes a real man to make fun of a guy who’s in a futile situation and has nothing to do but take your shit. Why not push over a guy with crutches and have a real laugh riot?

Although with Ann not being married she would know right?

Why isn't Ann the Man civilizing and inspiring some poor man to strive for something better (like a different woman but that's another story)? She's said women shouldn't vote and that they're not smart enough to be in public life - why the hell is she? Inquiring minds want to know.

Check out link below to read entire reverie/satire



But Ann Coulter is the only celebrity I’ve ever spotted at Farmer’s Market that I wound up fucking in the ass, hard.

It would be fair to observe that my feeling obligated to present the list of celebrities above in roughly Black-White-Black-White order is indicative of my own carefully Liberal sensibilities. And that this sort of conscientiousness is more than a little ridiculous, on examination. But what I notice about myself only on reflection, Ann Coulter seemed to recognize and respond to in an instant, like a puma recognizes an injured giselle. For Ann Coulter is a predator. A predator with a hungry asshole.

<snip>

Her eyes rolled up pleadingly as she threw her head down again and again on my magic johnson. I knew what she wanted.
‘There is a specter haunting Europe,’ I began, and she started to convulse spasmodically with her own thrashing orgasm, her head now dribbling in a blur against my groin. I repeated every Karl Marx quote I could think of until I reached my own ‘historic inevitability’ and launched surge after surge from my hairy boda bag.

Hairy soda bag?

Dearie, dearie me ...

Wow. Very spicey stuff, there.

Here's Ann studying "Law"
at University of Michigan.



"Moof moo mife fwyff wiff fwaff?"

From the Bartcop Collection.

I couldn't take my eyes away. I'm probably going to suffer PTSD from that.

Oh yeah, concerned about the children! Taking a child to see Ann Coulter, so just who committed the offensive act.

The police do not serve me.

The police do not serve you.

They are not there to serve and protect.

They are not there to uphold law and order.

The police are not agents of the people.

They are agents of power.

Open Letter to Anyone Who Gives a Shit About Justice

I'm writing this in response to the spectacle that occurred in the LBJ Library on Tuesday, May 3rd, 2005, when Ann Coulter, a diabolical, ignorant, but nevertheless charismatic right-wing pundit, came to speak at UT. Ms. Coulter- yes, Ms, I'd personally think such a vocal female conservative would be making Bubba a meatloaf instead of addressing a politically-minded collegiate audience, but whatever- is the author of relentlessly mendacious anti-liberal books, such as Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right and Treason: Liberal Treachery From the Cold War to the War on Terrorism. She's famous for having an ass that stores so many lies it makes clown-car designers envious. Like her or not (and if you do, I'm surprised you can read)

...

The title of the front-page story covering Ms. Coulter's in the Texan was "Arrest Made at Coulter Speech". You could also have caught it on CBS or in the Austin-American Statesman. The general idea is that some jackass made a scene, and Ann Coulter was also there.
I am Ajai Raj, and I am a jackass.

In his article, which I enjoyed and commend him for, Mr. Sampath quoted the former president of the Student Events Center, the organization which arranged the event. He wrote:
"The person had been disruptive the entire event," said Matt Hardigree, former Student Events Center president. "He took the opportunity to say something lewd and offensive and then made masturbatory gestures as he exited."

And what do I have to say in rebuttal? Not a goddamn thing.
Matt Hardigree got it spot-on! From the beginning I was yelling obscenities along with my friends, roaring at Ms. Coulter's right-wing bullshit festival the way no one else had the balls to. Mr. Sampath writes in his article that (and this is my take) the protestors were told to be good all along. They were told to sit in the back and hold their signs and leave quietly. No wonder hippies get such a bad rap nowadays; protestors today might as well be ornaments on the Rightmobile. When I want someone to know I'm pissed off, I'm going to throw down and give them a good shit-ruining. I wanted to show Ms. Coulter that people are down if she wants to hold a circle-jerk, but we're not gonna do it her way. Not me, at least.

So yes, the Q&A session came around, and it was pathetic. Her slack-jawed fans got up and licked her face so she could pat them on the head- one schmuck offered to be her bodyguard, and she smiled, doubtlessly making a mental note that she wouldn't touch his nether regions if she were King Midas; liberal protestors posed well-intentioned but woefully timid questions and got shot down in a hail of ignorant shitfire from the She-Dragon. Standing in line awaiting my turn, I watched her send a moderate Republican, who had questioned the sheer incendiary magnitude of her rhetoric, walk away in tears when she tore him apart for daring to question her.
So yes, I saw my "opportunity to say something lewd and offensive." And I took it.

She had just said something about gay marriage, the typical rightwing bullshit spiel that is still convincing people that the Bible is really the Constitution. Knowing that taking the time to say something insightful, specific, or even slightly critical would get me a lame comeback and a ticket back to my seat, I realized that the only way to win this battle was to fight fire with fire. Or bullshit with bullshit. So, as reported in yesterday's Texan, I fired:
"You say that you believe in the sanctity of marriage," said Ajai Raj, an English sophomore. "How do you feel about marriages where the man does nothing but fuck his wife up the ass?"

And the crowd fell silent. Ms. Coulter stood stunned atop her stage, unprepared for a jackass to say something so utterly crude and to the point. Her pompous and mean air is enough to stump questioners into timidity, I wasn't about to let her stop me. The audience members looked at me with raw disbelief; later, even friends who know me well admitted that they'd been surprised at how vulgar I'd been. The others in line for Q&A, mostly liberals, looked at me like I'd set their cause back forty years.

Did I give a shit? No. If I had a message, it's that the whole thing was a joke- hell, our whole political scene today is a fucking joke. Everyone's out to either pat themselves on the back for being right or whine about how they're being wronged without ever lifting a finger to fight for it.

So rather than dignify anyone else, I "made masturbatory gestures" as I exited. Again, bingo! I danced a jig and set my hand a-jerkin' at crotch-level, sneering for the crowd and letting them know I was ready to roll. I yelled to my friends that we were gonna split and made for the door.

Two cops approached me. I figured they were going to tell me I had to leave, so I said "You can't fire me, because I quit!"
"You're under arrest."

It was my turn to be shocked. I tried to ask them what for; saying "fuck her in the ass"" at a college isn't a crime, last time I checked. They apparently mistook my inquiries for aggression, and grabbed me roughly and slammed me into the door. Within seconds the backmost two or three rows was surging forward, following the scene as the cops dragged me out the door. They yelled and chanted; my friends were more outraged than I'd ever seen any of them before. As they pushed me into the car, I heard my good friend Jeffrey Stockwell scream, "THIS ISN'T A JUSTICE SYSTEM! YOU CALL THIS PROTECTING AND SERVING?!" The crowd took up a chant at the UTPD officers: "Shame! Shame! Shame!"

Shame is fucking right. When I asked the cops why they thought I needed cuffing, they told me that they didn't even see anything that happened, they were just doing as told.

As a good friend pointed out to me, it's a scary thought that people who are given weapons and the authority to forcibly detain people can act without knowledge of a situation.

...

My alma mater hasn't changed a bit.
