Delicate college students can’t handle the truth Milo speaks.

The Next Ann Coulter

In a packed auditorium Wednesday, several students at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities interrupted ultradivisive conservative writer and speaker Milo Yiannopoulos with blaring air horns. Outside, more student protesters held signs reading “End rape culture” and “Rape culture is not a myth.”

At another event several days earlier, students at Rutgers University smeared faux blood on their faces while Yiannopoulos spoke, shouting, “This man represents hatred.”

And those were the events Yiannopoulos (at right) made it to. A handful of universities in Britain have canceled appearances that are part of an ongoing speaking tour, which Yiannopoulos, who is gay and highly critical of “politically correct chaos” on college campuses, has dubbed the Dangerous Faggot Tour.

His website also lists a canceled event at Ohio State University, but a spokeswoman there said, “No one at Ohio State has knowledge of this event being scheduled here.”

Yiannopoulos himself says the number of university event cancellations is as high as 10 in the last 12 months, but he has agreed not to publicize some at the behest of student groups that were involved.

The Student Union at the University of Manchester in Britain cited “various comments lambasting rape survivors and trans people” and referred to Yiannopoulos as a “rape apologist” in announcing the cancellation. “We believe these views could incite hatred against both trans people and women who have experienced sexual violence. As we believe it is probable these views would be aired in this discussion should he be allowed to speak on campus, we have no choice but to ban him.”

Yiannopoulos is a British social media firebrand and tech writer for the far-right website Breitbart.com who may have angered so many on Twitter that the company revoked his verified status. He was once also removed from a protest march against rape culture, called a SlutWalk, which he attended while holding a sign that read, “Rape Culture and Harry Potter: Both Fantasy.”
