You bet.

Statement from a grad student instructor of the girl in the video:

Quote:
This girl is actually my student; I know her to be an intelligent, moral young woman who believes in peace. I do not support any organization that advocates violence against any specific group, nor do I believe that my student would do so. As a peace loving, Catholic teacher, I’m saddened that this speaker–her elder–manipulated the conversation in this fashion to make her look like someone she isn’t, out of an egotistical desire to prove his own point, rather than engaging in a constructive dialogue. A perfect example of why the peace process is limping foward so painfully
I like Horowitz, and don't think he manipulated the girl into anything ... you stand up to heckle the speaker, you takes your chances.

Agreed. I liked a lot of the videos I saw last night. Too bad they were mostly on Fox.
